Dove Award-nominated Chris Renzema releases Let The Ground Rest – B-Sides, recorded in the famed Nashville studio The Smoakstack. The EP features five live studio performances, including three versions of songs from his widely acclaimed sophomore LP of the same name, along with two new songs thematically connected to the album: “Tear My House Down” and the American Songwriter-featured single “Mercy.” The new music is a window into how the songs were formed while on tour.
“What’s cool about working out of The Smoakstack is that we got to play together as a band. Making music as a group feels less mechanical and more human. A lot of what I wrote for the last project has taken on new meaning in the pandemic, and singing about waiting on a season to change or sitting it out through a hard time means a lot more to me now that it did then.”
