"The Fourth Circle enters the Enter The Worship Circle family in keeping with the heart of the very first release in 1999. No overdubs, no studio retakes...we just hit record and start worshiping!" - Ben Pasley, Worship Circle Records
Each of the albums from the previous Circles introduce different artists that team up with Ben and Robin. The Fourth Circle is no different and features Canadian folk artists Karla Adolphe and Caleb Freisen, The Blackthorn Projects Tim and Laurie Thornton and Aaron Strumpel, who enjoys alt-tunings and has a neo-raspy, old-soul voice. The sound of the Fourth Circle is the most eclectic in the series thus far. It both progresses into areas of blues, gospel, alt-country and bluegrass, giving your ears something new to worship to, while still retaining the tribal familiarity of home that Circle junkies have come to love. Specifically, the harmonica, fiddle and mandolin work is fabulous (kudos to Caleb for bringing in his drum kit as well). The beauty of these instruments is not in any spectacular performances, but rather in the orchestration of them. They most certainly add to the sound and paint highlights on the tracks, but they don't distract from the song as a whole; they are simply doing what they are supposed to do. Enter the Worship Circle's Fourth Circle retains the family feel with the rest of the EWC records, but also hones the talents of the musicians involved to create something unique from it's siblings and parents. The members of EWC are normal and this is refreshing. They create because of who they are. The worship of EWC is grounded on earth but rooted in heaven.
