Richard Allen McGee - Miracle
Christian/Gospel, Pop, Rock
Florida, United States
Overall Impression: Melodically impressive and full of faith, Miracle by Richard Allen McGee has something to offer for every type of listener. This new Christian Rock song boasts attractive guitar riffs and an Alternative Rock sound to stand out among the crowd. As early as the introduction and first verse, Miracle takes a unique shape with a darkened vocal shade and uplifting lyrics. This shape morphs as the song progresses, and shines very brightly during the chorus. As expected, McGee brings in some killer guitar solos to take this music to the next level. They create peaks in the song's landscape and showcase a very special feature of McGee's own brand of Christian Rock. With Miracle, Richard Allen McGee manages to melt faces, look inward, and inspire faith.
Strongest Point(s): There are many strong points with Miracle. The instrumental work sticks out immediately, as the opening guitar riff has a very cool melody. But, the vocal lines deserve their own credit. McGee's melodic choices are often akin to Grunge and Alt. Rock from the 90's. They twist slightly and can make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. They create a unique pairing with the faith-based lyrics.
Target Audience Appeal: Fans of Christian Rock with and Alternative Rock and Grunge twist will dig Miracle by Richard Allen McGee.
Artist target suggestions: Relient K, Casting Crowns, For King & Country, Creed, Jars of Clay, After The Order, Skillet, P.O.D., David Crowder Band, Amy Grant, Bubba Chambers, Francesca Batistelli, Underoath
