This Worship Singer is simply an incredible songwriter, singer and worship leader. Her song Indescribable became a hit worldwide when Chris Tomlin (a famous worship Artist) used it on his 2004 Arriving album. This meant Christian Artist would become known all over the world immediately. And that’s exactly what happened.
The Artist was born in 1978 and comes from a smaller town of Spartanburg in South Carolina. She became musically active when she met Shane Williams at Columbia International University (former Columbia Bible College). Story joined Shane’s band Silers Bald as a bass player but after four independent albums she left the band to persue solo career. That turned out to be a inteligent move since she had more freedom in creating Christian music and develop more songs. In 2002 she released Indescribable which as already mentioned was used by Chris Tomlin and later on also by the Avalon, another known Christian Band. In 2005 Laura released her second album titled There is Nothing and married Martin Elvington. Soon she signes a deal with INO Records and 2 years later she releases Great God Who Saves album. This is her third album. By this time she and her husband live in Atlanta, Georgia where she works as a worship leader and women’s pastor for Parimeter Church. In May 2011 she releases her biggest hit, a song called Blessings. The song reaches #2 on the Billboard Christian Albums chart.
Cronology of Recorded Albums: In 2002 Indescribable is released. Three years later There is Nothing hits the charts. In 2008 Great God Who Saves is recorded and in 2011 Laura Story Blessings hits the top chart positions.
About Blessings It is known that soon after Story married Martin he was diagnosed with a brain tumor and this surely was a hard time for the couple. Not only physically but also spiritually because every person questiones himself about the purpose of such a disease. Story and her husband overcame the struggles and another song was born. The song is a ballad and easy to listen. It is #5 on the album. Starts with a cool piano intro and Story joines with singing. The song kind of opens in the chorus. It is most likely one of the best worship songs I have ever heard and just can not stop playing it. The Blessings Sheet Music of the song is an easy to learn the song on piano.
