Christian singer/songwriter Nick Thurmond aims for a widescreen sound on his third album, Nothing Can Stop Us, fleshing out his expansive melodies with lush synthesizers and thunderous drums. The Oklahoma-based worship leader’s songs emphasize God’s redemptive power on tracks like “More Than Able,” “Kingdom Come,” and “Like Your Love.” Thurmond’s buoyant vocal style and feel for dynamic arrangements mirror his lyrics' positive content, whether he dips into modern rock (“Hope”), symphonic balladry (“I. Drowning”), or sleek soul/pop grooves (“III. Awakening”). Fans of Jeremy Camp and Phil Wickham will find plenty to like here.
