NEW MUSIC: Faith Child and Joe L Barnes join forces on new song ‘Holy Place’

A collaboration between the UK and US, Holy Place is an anthemic celebration of life and faith from London rapper, Faith Child and American singer, Joe L Barnes.

Driven by live instrumentation, choral vocals and witty lyrics, the duo are in their element as they unite modern Gospel and Rap.

“If He hadn’t resurrected then it would have been a different tale. It was a dark (k)night when he paid the Christian bail/Bale.” quotes Faith, as he recites the lyrics. “I mean every line and lyric. God’s love has changed my life, it’s given me hope, it’s given me a future and I want to share that joy with the world. ‘Holy Place’ is a celebration of life in Christ and I’ll proudly shout it from the mountain tops.”

Winning the hearts of listeners with songs like ‘Promises’ with Maverick City Music, Grammy award-winning Joe L Barnes sonically invites us into a new dimension of his musical expression of faith.


Released ahead of Faith Child’s upcoming studio album, ‘Holy Place’ ushers in a new era of music from the MOBO award-winning London rapper. 

In recent years, we’ve seen collaborations across the continents, fusing cultures and customs, ‘Holy Place’ is set to be a landmark global moment in Christian and Gospel music.

"From everyone I've met so far, Faith Child is the one to me that has the most impact. He's so friendly, he doesn't judge, he doesn't condemn women who do, he gives nuance. I can see him influencing a whole generation to take on an anti-abortion stance." - says Poppy Jay.

Faith Child Headlines Slovakia's Festival Lumen

Returning to Festival Lumen, after last playing the festival 10 years ago in 2014, Faith Child put on an electrifying performance in the town square of Trnava, west of Slovakia.

Playing a 60-minute set, Faith headlined the festival with a high-energy performance, playing the crowd favourites including Over Me, New Era, Tunnel Vision, Cardio, Amen and Creator of the World.

Sporting the Slovakian flag, Faith felt right at home. “Slovakia is home to me. I’ve been performing in Slovakia since 2012, so over time I have become fond of the music, people and culture. I love what God is doing in this wonderful country and it’s an honour to be a part of it.”

Reminding the festival goers that God has a plan, purpose and future for them, Faith performed a rendition of popular worship song, Yeshua, and prayed for the nation. “I love being able to carry a message of hope in my music. Music is a powerful tool, and once you put God in the mix the possibilities are endless. I enjoy breaking the stereotype that music with a message is boring. Hearing testimonials of people no longer wanting to self-harm and wanting to live a life of purpose as a result of coming to a Faith Child concert will always bring me joy. It’s the reason I do what I do. To point people to the one who gives life and life to the fullest. I’m just a vessel. As always, to God be the glory!”

A Stabal Session special

Faith Child gave an electric performance with the band at his Stabal Session.

Performing the favourites Cardio, New Era, That Was Then and Creator of the World, Faith Child delivered a world-class performance.
