A Million Lights

Multi-Platinum artist, best-selling author and acclaimed actor Michael W. Smith releases for the first time in his career two, all new albums in one month, both his studio album A Million Lights and the live worship album Surrounded from Rocketown Records and The Fuel Music.

A Million Lights was fueled by the divisive national sentiment of 2017 and the mean-spirited banter on social media. "About half the album was written in response to where we are as a nation," says Michael. "In the age of social media, people have forgotten how to talk with one another, to be civil."

Eager to experiment with new sounds, Michael enlisted multiplatinum producer and songwriter Brian Todd (Miley Cyrus and Rascal Flatts) and songsmith Kyle Lee to help flesh out his vision for the new songs. "I called a bunch of people I'd never written with because I wanted to push myself and experiment."

The result is a beautiful collection of sweeping, epic new songs that sees Michael exploring new ground with music created to enlighten, mesmerize and touch the soul of listeners.

"Until the world ends, music is the most powerful language there is. It can transform your life on every level, not just the spiritual. It can help people reconnect with why they're here. That's what I'm doing with A Million Lights."
