Debut album by Michael James Mette just what youth need

Michael James Mette's new release "Always What I Need" offers fresh new music inspired by the artist's Catholic faith. The songs found on this CD address the prevalent issues and questions that teenagers are faced with today. Through his experiences as a music minister, and working with teens and young adults, Michael James Mette continues to hear a common theme "What is this life for?"

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The fundamental choice between doubt and faith is addressed in original songs (penned by Mette) like "Know Love Serve" and "This is Our Lamb", while "Always What I Need" and "Prepare Me" point to a reliance on God's providence. With an energy and style that cuts through the apathy of a "Guitar Hero" generation, Michael's timeless message finds a comfortable niche for the youth of the Church. Other songs covered on the album include new twists on classic praise and worship songs like "Open the Eyes of My Heart", and "Lord I Lift your Name on High". There is also a driving, power praise & worship version of "Where the Streets Have No Name" (Listen) made popular by mainstream artist-U2, and an original sing-a-long sure to be embraced by youth groups everywhere titled "I've Got the Joy". "Always What I Need" is a collection of 10 songs sure to inspire this young generation and will clearly become an effective resource tool for youth leaders.
