I liked their music a lot too but upon doing some research found that the founder of their community Agnes Dei (Herbert Grundberger) is a convicted child abuser and their community is a Catholic sect that is not recognized by ecclesiastic authorities. Bishop actually ordered to dissolve their community. Best to stay away from their influence.

A few more Catholic artists to add to the list 1. Austin Satrio 2. Damascus Worship 3. SPO worship 4. Still Morning 5. PJ Anderson 6. Thomas Muglia 6. David Kauffman
My dream is to come out with Catholic music in español of the sacred hymns that have been taken out of the Spanish hymnals in the US. Pray for this endeavor! I just sing in Mass and love the liturgy.
Brother Isaiah opened up the eyes of my husband and was crucial to his conversion to Catholicism. He literally said, “oh, I didn’t think that Catholics can be cool”. 😎
E-Knock is a truly great Catholic rapper and every song cuts right into catholic teachings in with all the current issues we, as a church, are trialing with!
I know she’s taking a break from religion, but Audrey Assad’s voice and music is just beautiful. Try “I Shall Not Want,” VOCES8 sings classical music that will break open your heart. Their “Ubi Caritas”, by contemporary composer Ola Gjello, “the Deer’s Cry,” and “Miserere Mei,” are three I absolutely love. They move me closer to God with their heavenly harmonies.
@juliabuonincontro8617 wow!! I had a cassette tape of his when I was in college In the early 80"s. So good. He loves being catholic and most importantly loves the Lord! Still does interviews too. Retreats? Awesome. Still serving!
@TheWoodlandsMusicLessons do u have to be silent though? I live alone and love to fellowship with others. H8s music is awesome. I listened to him in college. So gifted.
I love that Ascension Presents is promoting Catholic artists! Thomas Muglia is another Catholic artist worth listening to. Listen to Litany of Trust, it's such a beautiful song.
Have to recommend Eric Genuis. He is a world class pianist and composer and epitomizes the beauty of the faith expressed in music. He even has a ministry giving free concerts for prisons. Interesting fact, he played the pianist in the movie "Mall Cop".
A few Catholic artists I like: Devin Rain (dark pop, memento mori vibes), Margaret Knapp (contemporary/kinda jazz influenced pop??), Franco Aurelio (upbeat pop/trap/edm vibes)
As someone who really enjoys bluegrass gospel, I was happy you mentioned The Hillbilly Thomists. Their song "Weight of Eternal Glory" is fantastic, quick, but so good.. Looking forward to their new album. Thanks for the other suggestions!
LOVE that you are making a video about music! It’s such a great way to worship and thank the Lord. As St. Augustine supposely said, when you sing you pray twice! The Church desperately needs this type of musical revival. ❤❤❤
Hi Father Mark, I heard Marie Miller sing for the first time with Joshua Carswell (Brother Joseph at the Benjamin Cello show for kids) a beautiful Christmas song. He's got one of the best tenor voices i've heard but he's not so popular I don't know why...he's very humble. Also the Annie Moses Band is very good, they sing religious music and they have the Show The Wonderful World of Benjamin Cello and a Christian School of Music for the Arts in Tennessee. Just wonderful Catholic musicians. Blessing Father Mark!
Recently came across the music of Fr. Tansi - who is also a CFR! and does some collabs with Brother Isaiah - LOVE his music!!! So happy to have discovered it.
Voces8, anybody? I don't think they are Catholic per se, but the Catholic works they do are magnificently done. I go back to their rendition of 'Ne Irascaris, Domine' by William Byrd a lot.
@@christinebutler7630 You mean the Tenebrae Choir? I think that's the one whose rendition of Allegri's Miserere always is the top recommendation when I search for that piece.
Also Fr. Rob Galea!! 🙌🏻🎸🎶 Saw him live in Chicago. He has so much wonderful music and an amazing testimony. also Harpa Dei the singing siblings, I saw live here last year. They sing such a great variety of sacred music and so beautifully! I love the Congolese Ave Maria and Chinese Marian hymn! Also just discovered and love the music of Ola Gjeilo. Not sure if he’s Catholic but a whole lot of his music is. Love Dark Night of the Soul and many others- glorious, beautiful piano solos too
Absolutely! At Mass this past Sunday, the Priest gave a Homily that we are all EUCHARISTIC Ministers because we carry Jesus in us when we meet others. Then for the Offertory hymn, the song “Earthen Vessels” was sung! It’s one of my favorites & followed the Homily perfectly!🙏🎶✝️🎶
@@elizabethcronin3074🩸 2 Peter 2 KJV 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. Acts 20 KJV 🩸 28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
Thank you very much for that. I've checked them all out on Spotify and they are great! Brother Isaiah hit me the most, can't stop listening to him and praying through his songs.
There is a lot of people who don’t know how to pray, or think they don’t. This music is incredible for that and to keep us in God’s presence and awe, all day long, every day. We need more. The Eucharist we will respect, most definitely. But this “secular” music is necessary for our souls. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤
Danielle Rose is a wonderful catholic musician... Mamastery, Walk on water, Saint that is just me, litany of humility and psalm 88 are my favorites of her....
Adding Ike Ndolo and Fr Tansi to this list. 😊 Brother Isaiah, the Hillbilly Thomists, and Marie Miller have been some favorites of ours the past few years and their new songs have been on repeat this week!
some of the music isn't my cup of tea but thanks for introducing me to the Hillbilly Thomists, what a great band. showed my friend and he's into them too now

Check out Jackie Minton! I went on a pilgimage with her last year and she played some of her music and it was so beautiful! I love her song Speak Lord I'm Listening. Highly recommend a listen!
Eterna. Catholic Metal band from Brazil. Sadly hasn't made an album in years. But they did make 3 really good ones between 1999 and 2004: Papyrus, Terra Nova, and Epiphany.
The Hillbilly Thomists! I’m so excited that you’ll have some of them on the show with you, they have put out some excellent stuff, check out Chasing Money No More!
No no no... They are amazing singers who claim to be catholic but are deviant (there are things that are seriously wrong in their community)... Google community agnus dei (their founder, equador, the refusal from bishops to give church recognition etc)
I'm an Electronic musician that just became Catholic this past weekend after spending most of my life as an atheist/agnostic. Praise God!
Welcome home!
Welcome home indeed! I'm definitely a fan of electronic (specifically house), and I look forward to hearing your music.
Welcome home Minno!
I’m a convert and musician as well howdy!
Looking forward to your worship music!
Throwing our hats in the mix. 😊 We are a catholic band from the UK. Do give us a listen and pray for us.

4. Franz Liszt
5. Bruckner
6. Haydn
7. Messiaen
Bach and Beethoven and Verdi too, hello 👀
❤
Beehtoven
Theres a group called Harpa Dei that does gregorian chant. Theyre all blood siblings, all consecrated, and the music is unbelievably unique.
I liked their music a lot too but upon doing some research found that the founder of their community Agnes Dei (Herbert Grundberger) is a convicted child abuser and their community is a Catholic sect that is not recognized by ecclesiastic authorities. Bishop actually ordered to dissolve their community. Best to stay away from their influence.

100% agree with Austin Satrio! You guys need to give him a listen on Spotify
thanks for this comment!! means a lot!!!
@@austinsatrio1884 my pleasure brother! Your music has brought so much healing! You’re in my prayers!
Palestrina, Allegri, Hildegard von Bingen, Monteverdi, William Byrd, Goreki, Liszt... Some of the best Catholic music. ;)
If you're going classical, can't go wrong with some Beethoven or Mozart. A bit too "pop" for some, but I like it.
@@anthtan And Bach of course.
@@leaf842 Love the guy, but he wasn't Catholic, even though he composed that monumental B Minor Mass.
Sir James MacMillan
@@anthtan He did convert later but it may have only been to further himself, so yeah, fair enough.
my music so far has not been Catholic but I’m starting to write Catholic music now. just celebrated 7 years in the church ❤

I love listening to the Vigil Project. If you've never heard them, give the song Lord have Mercy a listen. ❤🙏🏽
The Vigil Project is definitely worth the listen! Great recommendation, TY.
Sarah Kroger yes!!!! And Colleen McKenna, Halo app is offering some beautiful Catholic music as well. Thank you Father
Fr. Rob Galea if you are not familiar listen to him… his voice is amazing
Fr. Ray Kelly too! He was on Britain's Got Talent.
Fr. Galea is great.
Please note Josh Blakesley ❤ His songs, "Jesus I trust in You" and "how beautiful is your love" are heavenly.
Aly Aleigha is an amazing Catholic singer-songwriter too!
I know she’s taking a break from religion, but Audrey Assad’s voice and music is just beautiful. Try “I Shall Not Want,” VOCES8 sings classical music that will break open your heart. Their “Ubi Caritas”, by contemporary composer Ola Gjello, “the Deer’s Cry,” and “Miserere Mei,” are three I absolutely love. They move me closer to God with their heavenly harmonies.
I love Audrey but my understanding was that she had left Catholicism and converted to Taoism as opposed to simply taking a break from religion.
I love Sara Hart, not only her music but also her voice so beautiful.
John Michael Talbot!! " come to the quiet". Beautiful!
Yeah he’s still producing music too! Went on a retreat he ran just a couple months ago
@juliabuonincontro8617 wow!! I had a cassette tape of his when I was in college In the early 80"s. So good. He loves being catholic and most importantly loves the Lord! Still does interviews too. Retreats? Awesome. Still serving!
I recently spent a weekend at JMT’s monastery for a retreat. If you have the means I highly recommend doing it.
@TheWoodlandsMusicLessons do u have to be silent though? I live alone and love to fellowship with others. H8s music is awesome. I listened to him in college. So gifted.
@@lisaferrin you do not have to be silent. The community is so welcoming.
Gotta love all the recommendations added in the comment section too! Thanks everyone!
Protestant here. I know the first two and just recently discovered Brother Isaiah! Thanks for the recommendations.

Great review! I have two amazing Catholic artists to add that I’ve interviewed on my channel. Patrizia Liberata & Laura Huval! 🎶❤️🎶
Fr. Tansi is great too!
Yes! So many of his songs make me emotional.
Julia Schmidt is also Catholic and up-and-coming! I recommend "Testimony"!
I also love listening to Danielle Rose; she has some really beautiful songs!

Good music at Mass makes me feel closer to God. Also it helps me to enjoy Mass (it’s true)

Good to see this Revival of hearts within the Catholic Church. Using music to touch the hearts of people and draw them closer to Jesus! 💕
Yesss! Most, if not all, of this beautiful music is available on the Hallow app also. Wonderful prayer aid! God bless the ppl at Ascension & Hallow. 🙏
Thank you so much, for sharing this Fr. Mark-Mary!! Many blessings 🙏🤗
Chris Renzema is a great artist too. Not Catholic, but is Christian and speaks beautifully of giving your life to Christ.
Amen.
Singing is praying twice
Dan Bremnes is Christian and so upbeat. Loves the Lord. I'm glad you did this as I needed this. Thank you ❣️
Thank you very much for that. I've checked them all out on Spotify and they are great! Brother Isaiah hit me the most, can't stop listening to him and praying through his songs.
LISTEN TO MAC SINISE ! He died early this year, at 33. Son of GARY SINISE. GREAT GREAT MUSICIAN ! CATHOLIC. INSPIRED BY GRACE ! CHRISTIAN MUSIC ! 🌞
Yeah, Brother Isaiah! His albums are the best! And his new album drops after my birthday! What a gift!
