Jason Gray's understated songwriting seems to be about redefining what true strength really is, and if his songs have anything to tell us, it's probably that "Weakness is the new strength. "While his work has garnered gushing critical accolades, it wasn't primarily the literate craftsmanship of his songs that drew the immediate respect of his peers and a solid fan base to him. It was, rather, Jason's candor, his transparency, his willingness to expose his own weaknesses night after night that created an inexplicable bond with audiences and prompted Centricity Music to sign him in 2006. . "There is constant pressure in our entertainment oriented culture to be amazing and impressive," Jason says, "to wow audiences with gimmicks, to get on the charts. I wrestle against that because it can be a heart killer and completely irrelevant to God's calling in my life. I'd rather be real than impressive." Jason's music chimes with a sense of exuberance and surrender, with a hard-won joy that can't easily be shaken since it rises inexplicably from every point of defeat. Jason's music tries to assure us that we aren't alone. We might be broken, but we're a community of the broken, bearing one another's burdens.
