Multi-Platinum® songwriter and worship leader Mack Brock releases “Praise Upon Praise (Live at The River)” today (Oct. 2) at digital and streaming outlets worldwide through Centricity Music. The song introduces Brock’s first live album as a solo artist, an as-yet-untitled project scheduled for release in 2027.
Brock recorded “Praise Upon Praise” live during a July 21 worship gathering at The River in Toronto, Ontario. Co-written with Chris Davenport, Jesse Reeves and David Leonard, the anthemic song beautifully embodies an overall theme of exaltation and rises into an instantly memorable chorus. For Brock, the song’s purpose is singular: to direct attention toward God.”I didn’t want this song to be about me or about, ‘Here’s what I need from you, Lord,’ or, ‘Here’s what I’m believing for, Lord.’ I just really wanted it to be, ‘You’re worthy of praise,'” Brock shares. “And that’s the heart of the song.”
“Praise Upon Praise” follows Brock’s Beloved EP (2025) and full-length studio album This Is Holy that features the hit radio single “Time and Time Again.” The album is a sacred collection of original anthems intended to remind listeners, and Brock’s own heart, that there’s an all-knowing God who is completely sovereign, trustworthy and deserving of all praise.
Known for co-writing Elevation Worship hits like the triple-Platinum “O Come To The Altar,” double-Platinum “Do It Again” and Platinum-certified “Resurrecting,” Brock continues to write anthems that are becoming staples in Sunday morning setlists. After a decade as a founding member of Elevation Worship, he launched his solo career with Greater Things in 2018, followed by the live-in-studio SPACE in 2020 and This Is Holy through Centricity Music in 2024. His songs have also been recorded by Phil Wickham, Jesus Culture, Passion, Pat Barrett and Bryan & Katie Torwalt, among others, and he has toured with artists including Wickham, Hillsong UNITED, Cody Carnes and Paul Baloche. A South Carolina native, Brock and his wife, Meredith, CEO of Proverbs 31 Ministries, have three children: Harvey, Cyrus and Zah’mere. The couple adopted Zah’mere after serving as his foster family and remain a licensed foster family.
