Chavah Messianic Radio

Shalom friends, We've just now added some beautiful new music to the station to sweeten your shabbat: Lily Francis - Prayers Lily is a friend of the station and independent Messianic musician and songwriter. This new 5 song EP features gentle, folksy worship set to guitar, piano, violin.  I think my favorites from this album are Return to Me  and her beautiful cover of Hashkivenu . But really, all 5 songs are something special and praiseworthy. I think you fine listeners will enjoy this beautiful new music for King Yeshua. Shabbat shalom, fine Chavah listeners.

Shalom dear Messianic music afficionados, We’ve added more music to the station, this time a classic Messianic album: Elana Watson - Awake O Israel I've had a few songs from this classic album on the station, but just hadn't got around to getting the whole album on. Now it is. 😊 Here’s a little bit about this classic Messianic album: Awake O Israel is a recording of unprecedented combinations of Middle Eastern, Latin American, and Eastern European melodies and rhythms. Elana Watson is the daughter of renowned messianic artists Merv & Merla Watson. Coming from a musical family, Watson grew up onstage performing in theatres, cathedrals, churches, synagogues, and festivals, and has been on television and radio in over 30 countries. This recording consists of many crossovers along with Watson’s original sound. It is indeed a new sound full of surprise and energy! Enjoy this golden oldie for King Messiah, fine friends in Yeshua. 😎

 Shalom dear Chavah listeners, Fresh new Messianic music on the station, contributed by our dear friend and longtime Messianic artist, Ted Pearce. ♥ Ted Pearce - Ancient Gates This is Ted's 11th (!) record/LP. His songs have become staples of the modern Messianic movement, played everywhere in our congregations and beloved by many. His music is some of the highest rated music on Chavah, so I know you fine folks love his works for the Lord. Ted gives some background on this new 7 song album: I can remember the joy I felt the first time I heard these songs. People were dancing and singing and enjoying each other. These seem like standards that every Jewish congregation would know, but I had never heard them before at age 29.  In 2021, I began studying to be an audio engineer and chose these songs for my “work project” to learn that skill. Then, during the “Long Tour 2022” across the western USA, I recorded a few friends along the way and added them to these recordings. By Octobe
