Pedras Vivas found their start as the band of a local church in Goiânia, Brazil and their music captures all the radiant energy of a devout congregation. At the forefront are the vocals which ring out, open-throated and uplifting, over a varied array of acoustic guitars, gleaming keyboards and steady drums. The CCM group’s approach to instrumentation bridges the gap between pop rock arrangements and orchestral scope, with the latter coming through in shimmering, atmospheric fills—elevating them towards a richer sound that reflects the warmth of worship through song.
