Cochren and Co.’s Debut Album, “Don’t Lose Hope,” Drops Today!

January 23, 2021

Gotee Records is proud to announce the debut album from Cochren & Co., Don’t Lose Hope, is available now. Click here to listen.

“This record is a culmination of years of my own joy, sorrow, peace, worry, doubt, and ultimately the thread of hope that has brought me to where I am now,” shares Michael Cochren of Cochren & Co. “It’s a lot of my story, but it’s things we all experience – and the hope Jesus brings to all of it.”

The highly anticipated 13-song project features Cochren & Co.’s back-to-back Top 10 Billboard Christian Airplay radio singles, “Church (Take Me Back)” and “One Day,” the current Top 10 Billboard AC single, “Who Can,” plus the album’s powerful title track, which was produced by GRAMMY®-winning producer Christopher Stevens. “Don’t Lose Hope,” which was written by frontman Michael Cochren, continues to make an impact – tonight the song will be heard on the popular long-running CBS series “MacGyver.”

This week Cochren & Co.’s debut album and songs have been included in a plethora of top playlists across the digital platforms including: Amazon Music’s Divine Sound and Fresh Christian Playlist, Pandora’s New Christian Music Now; Spotify’s Top Christian, New Music Friday Christian and Top Christian Contemporary Playlists; Apple Music’s Christian, Hot Tracks, Today’s Christian, Rise Up, Risers and Every 1 Playlists; YouTube’s Christian Hits, Christian Goes Pop and Christian Music on the Rise Playlists.

Last night, the music video for the new song, “For My Good,” premiered on YouTube. Click to watch below. The song was co-written with producer Kyle Williams (We Are Messengers) while the music video was directed by Fuhs Video (Imagine Dragons).

Along with Stevens and Williams, other producers on Don’t Lose Hope are Bryan Fowler (TobyMac), Marshall Altman (Natasha Bedingfield), Jeff Pardo (Rhett Walker), Micah Kuiper (Ryan Stevenson), and Josh Bronleewe.

Cochren & Co., has made quite a name for himself since he came onto the scene just two years ago. He was nominated for Best New Artist for the GMA Annual Dove Awards® in 2020 and is just one of two new artists to have two back-to-back Billboard Christian Airplay Top 10 radio singles along with that nomination.

Last fall, Cochren & Co. was part of TobyMac’s Drive-In Theatre Tour and will continue touring this spring on his Hits Deep Tour kicking off in February with TobyMac, Tauren Wells, We Are Messengers, Unspoken and Terrian followed by a co-headling tour with Rhett Walker.

I have always loved radio and was introduced to Contemporary Christian Music when I was a lowly freshman in high school, way back in 1977! "Praise the Lord" by The Imperials, "Your Love Broke Through" by Keith Green and others were the first songs I heard and played over and over again!
