Award-winning Gospel singer, songwriter, and producer Mark Bishop is not one to look back or become burdened by the path he has already trodden. ‘Some Distant Mountain’ is inspired by an exploration of American roots, music and its origins in Celtic, European, and African traditional music. ‘Some Distant Mountain’ traverses centuries and continents to celebrate the Gospel in all of its glory. Driven by an overarching theme of perseverance, the album itself resonates with the power of the moment we are in. Having emerged shaken and transformed by life in a pandemic, each track on ‘Some Distant Mountain’ reads like a love letter from the past, steeped in wisdom and experience from those who came before.
