Delivery. A simple word, yet driven to perfection by Chris Sligh. His vocals and humor are so incredibly ‘delivered’ that they are hard to forget. I originally thought that his personal debut was on American Idol.Even though Idol gave him the push he needed, he is no stranger to the business. He has written, co-written and produced all the songs on the album “Take A Chance on Something Beautiful”, which was released by his band “Half Past Forever” in 2007. 

He has several albums under his belt and shows his experience through his new album entitled, “Running Back To You” which will be released in May 2008. Chris is not shy about his love and devotion to Christ. His debut song, “Empty Me” was released to radio playlists in February 2008. “Empty Me” is beautifully written and very personal as it touches on his introduction to fame through American Idol, and yet he quickly realized it wasn’t enough. He has opened his heart through his lyrics in this album to show that his desire is to be filled with Christ. Truly an encouragement to anyone listening. “Empty Me” and “In A Moment” are slower paced songs but are accompanied by a roller coaster of tunes such as “Arise Running Back” and ”Let You Know”. His beautifully crisp, God-given voice is so powerful
that it will cause anyone to listen intently to the message. “In A
Moment” is a song that will be easily related to by listeners. Knowing that life can change for the worse “in a moment” but keeping our focus on Christ will change our night into a “brand new day”. He has a unique way of putting the shared inner-most thoughts of our hearts into song and still remind us that “love pulls us through, in a moment”.

This is not a watered-down, can’t quite get the message across album. Chris has made it very clear that he follows Christ and desires to share that with his listeners. “Runnng Back To You”, which is labeled under Brash Music, is a sure hit! It will certainly help him to be associated with American Idol since his
humor and curly hair are unforgetable, however, I do not believe he will need much help getting his music on constant playlists. This is an album I will have in my personal stack
