We Are Messengers’ Joy-Filled Album “Where The Joy Is”

On their fourth full-length album, Where The Joy Is, We Are Messengers points to Jesus as the ultimate source of joy. The 10 original tracks on this release shine with the delight that comes from living a life rooted in Christ. From the studio to the stage, the band captures the same exuberant energy that has made their live performances so impactful.

With anthems reminiscent of U2’s grand, atmospheric rock sound, Where The Joy Is blends powerful guitar riffs and the distinctive Irish flair of frontman Darren Mulligan. Tracks like “Keep Your Head Up” introduce an unstoppable vitality, and gang vocals throughout the album push the band’s sonic boundaries. The songs are crafted to ignite arenas and fill concert halls as they embark on their most ambitious headlining tour yet.

Working alongside acclaimed Christian songwriters like Jeff Pardo, Ethan Hulse, and Jonathan Smith, Mulligan’s rough-edged, passionate style shines through on every track. Songs such as “A Thousand Times” and “How Great You Are” praise Jesus’ goodness, while “God Be The Glory” and “Glory and My Good” focus on life transformation through surrender to Christ.

Noteworthy collaborations on the album include Blanca on the joyful track “My Hope Is In You” and Ben Fuller on the hard-driving “I Found Rest,” a powerful testimony of God’s grace and redemption. The album’s crown jewel, “Worthy of Being Loved,” is a heartfelt message to those battling depression and suicidal thoughts, offering hope and resilience through Jesus’ love.
