The War Is Over

The War Is Over is the third studio album by American Christian musician Josh Baldwin. The album was released on May 26, 2017, by Bethel Music, the album being his first solo release with the label. Bobby Strand produced the album. Background After joining the Bethel Music collective in 2014, Josh Baldwin and his family moved from North Carolina to Redding, California, in August 2015. This cross-country move is cited as having influenced the album's creative direction due to the blending of sonic elements which reflect Baldwin's Southern origins and his placement in Bethel Music and Redding. Promotion The earliest mention of The War Is Over dates as far back as March 2017 when announcements on Christian digital outlets Cross Rhythms and Louder Than The Music that the album will be released via Bethel Music on May 26. On May 5, 2017, Bethel Music announced the pre-order of the album, having made three tracks and one music video available as pre-order singles prior to the album's release, the songs were "Get Your Hopes Up", "Endlessly" and "The War Is Over" and the music video of "Abraham". A press release to affirm the album's launch date as well as its full track listing via The Media Collective was issued on May 9, 2017.
