A worship band that will be sorely missed, December 12, 2009
This review is from: All The Earth (Audio CD)
I've followed the Parachute Band's initial line-up (of Wayne and Libby Huirua among others) for over 10 years, and every cd they have released has literally changed my life as a Christian, and has helped me through some hard times.
In terms of musical impact on the praise and worship genre, Parachute Band are second only to the Hillsong church. In terms of artistic credibility, there simply is no band that has even touched what PB has done once you look at the scope of PB's whole discography. Hillsong has made some headway with their last two albums, but PB still takes the crown IMO.
They made music of the highest musical integrity that was entirely dedicated to serving and worshiping God, and I believe that their music still is far more modern and hard-hitting than 99% of the Christian music that is out there today as of December 2009 (including the new parachute line-up). Every cd broke new ground with world-class playing and composing (mostly re-interpretations of the compositions of New Zealand composers) in a dizzying number of genres- ballads, rock, modern blues, funk, R&B and jazz influences, and electronica.
Personally as a musician I miss the old PB terribly and I find very little of modern christian music that can prevent me from changing the radio station almost instantly. My personal appeal is that somehow Wayne and Libby can get back on the scene and do what they do best- composing and performing some of the most intelligent praise and worship music out there.
The old parachute band was and is the DJ Shadow of praise and worship music, so I suggest that you get hold of every cd you can. I recommend everything from "Love", "Adore", "Amazing", "Glorious", and "All The Earth" for their live playing.

All The Earth, December 17, 2007
This review is from: All The Earth (Audio CD)
This is one of the most anointed CD I have heard in some time. I have had it for a few years and I guess you could say that I finally heard what it was saying. I recommend it.

Sold out to Christ, August 19, 2006
This review is from: All The Earth (Audio CD)
Recently saw this band live. They are excellent. This live album returned right where I was the night I saw them and the tears still stream.
I strongly recommend. Shout, All The Earth, and Complete are some of the best live worship I have ever heard. If you get a chance to see in person...don't walk...RUN...to get tickets. God Bless
