Woods & The NRL Band’s rousing single “Where I Find God” gives country gospel a powerful new identity this season. The delivery is simultaneously personal and sweeping, a reminder of how powerful gospel music can be. The performance transports listeners to a quiet space where faith, music, and storytelling mingle.
The production was recorded at Mansion Studios in Branson, Mo., and in London. It has a slick, highly professional yet intimate feel. The multistage recording across continents conveys the song’s universal message, uniting people and place through a common spiritual thread. Woods’ performance feels both real and respectful, aided by his award-winning NRL Band and the warm, resonant harmonies of background vocalist Devin Callahan. But its never-wandering country roots remain.
Woods himself is in the Country Music Hall of Fame, and his deep voice adds nobility and honesty to the song’s simple message. His singing conveys a quiet conviction that never sounds forced, allowing for the emotional heft of the music to emerge organically. The band supports him with tasteful instrumentation that gives him time to think while also building a soft, uplifting momentum.
Guided by legendary producers Chris Omartian and Stuart Epps, the track merges the warmth of traditional gospel with studio craft. The end product is a listening experience that sounds timeless rather than trendy, one that lingers long after the final note has faded.
