Lincoln Brewster

Lincoln Brewster brings a rare level of technical proficiency to the world of contemporary worship. While many of his peers focus on atmospheric pads and simple strumming, Brewster leads with the fire of a world-class session guitarist. His music sounds like the intersection of modern praise and 1980s arena rock, filled with soaring melodies and production that feels both massive and intimate. It is music designed to fill large spaces, yet it retains a personal, conversational warmth.

What truly sets him apart is the 'guitar hero' DNA woven into every track. Having toured with Steve Perry of Journey, Brewster utilizes melodic shredding, tasteful vibrato, and classic rock phrasing that would feel right at home on a platinum record from the seventies or eighties. This technical edge provides a muscular foundation for his lyrics, turning standard worship themes into high-octane anthems that feel physically energizing to listen to.

Start with the 'Let the Praises Ring' compilation to hear the hits that defined a decade of church music. For those who want to hear his technical range, 'All to You: Live' captures the raw energy of his live performances, where his guitar work truly takes center stage. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who loves great guitar playing but wants music with a positive, spiritual focus.
