Nashville, TN (September 14, 2018)
Matthew West has released a brand-new music video for his song “Something Greater,” recounting the singer’s personal journey to Nashville. Off his chart-topping album, All In, the video is compiled of personal clips of West from his wedding day, early career performances and with his daughters, imparting the narrative of West’s life up to this point.
“‘[Something Greater]’ is my favorite song on the record, because it shares more of my direct story than my songs tend to do,” West recently shared with Billboard. “This song illustrates a change in my creative process. A lot of times my inspiration will be deeply personal, but then as a songwriter I’ll try to reach out and grab this universal message, so I’ll take this direct inspiration, but then try to write it in a way that everybody could relate to it. That’s part of my job as a songwriter, to write relatable songs.”
“Something Greater” also features the familiar harmonies of country star, Carrie Underwood, who told Billboard, “I’ve always loved [Matthew] as an artist…it was a really cool thing to be a part of.”
Following The Answer/All In Tour 20 city co-headlining fall tour with Jeremy Camp, West will be headlining Compassion LIVE’s The Roadshow Christmas Tour and The Roadshow Tour 2019, visiting 29 markets coast to coast. Joining West on the first-ever The Roadshow Christmas Tour are Matt Maher, Building 429, Plumb, Josh Wilson and Leanna Crawford, visiting arenas in November and December with more cities to be announced. Throughout February and March, West will be accompanied on The Roadshow Tour 2019 by Tenth Avenue North, Matt Maher and Leanna Crawford with worship from special guest, Michael W. Smith. The two treks will give fans even more opportunities to experience the award-winning line-ups. Pre-sale is currently available for several dates of Compassion LIVE’s “The Roadshow Christmas Tour” and “The Roadshow Tour” with the public on-sale launching on Sept. 19 at 10 a.m. local time.
