Faith is irrepressible. Whether it’s whispered or shouted,
it ignites a passion that must be shared, and that spark burns brightly
throughout pop artist Krystal Meyers’ new release, Make Some
Noise (9/16/08). It’s a potent set of songs that find the
talented 20-year old exploring new musical territory while continuing
to serve up the kind of insightful lyrics that made her first two
albums so groundbreaking.
“This music is fun and energetic and is going to be fun on
stage,” says Meyers, who is already performing some of her
new songs in concert to enthusiastic response. “It’s
a different kind of energy. Some of the songs like ‘S.O.S.’
and ‘My Freedom’ are more
guitar-driven, but there are other songs like ‘Shine,’
the first radio single, that are totally
80’s-inspired, fun, dance, pop/rock music. It’s a diverse
record that defines my different musical layers.”
Meyers first burst on the scene with her self-titled Essential
Records debut in 2005, spawning her breakthrough hit “Anticonformity,”
a song she wrote at camp before entering ninth grade. Her debut
set spawned four top ten singles and also launched her career abroad.
Her sophomore album, Dying For a Heart, solidified Meyers’
stature as one of the top artists in Christian music—earning
her a second Dove nomination in the female vocalist of the year
category--and boosting her audience overseas, earning her major
pop star status in Japan.
