Reverb Worship, the music arm of CBN Asia, releases SEEN, a seven-song collection of original Christian music inspired by real-life experiences of faith, doubt, surrender, hope, and joy. Produced in collaboration with Bakehouse Studios, the album brings together seven artists and distinct musical expressions around one sharedtruth—different stories, different sounds, one God who sees.
At the heart of SEEN is a question many people carry through difficult seasons: What does it mean to be seen by God? Ivy Catucod, Reverb Worship Project Head and Producer, shares: “To be seen by God Is more than being noticed; it is being fully known and loved - in our innermost being, in every thought and every season we walk through. Our heart in creating this album is to gently remind listeners of God’s faithfulness, even when the road is hard. We pray that everyone who listens will feel held and seen, and be encouraged to keep holding on to faith and hope in Him.”
SEEN features Andrea Badinas, Elaisha Trinidad, Hazel Faith, Joleah Tulagan, Marco Taniegra, Joselle Feliciano, and Denise Parroco, each bringing a distinct voice and musical identity to the project. Spanning Christian contemporary, pop, jazz, ballad, gospel, and praise and worship, the songs sound different while remaining connected by the album’s central theme: personal stories of encountering the faithfulness of God.
The album also marks a meaningful collaboration between Reverb Worship and Bakehouse Studios in Virginia Beach, USA, bringing together artists and collaborators in both the Philippines and the United States. For Jim Parroco, owner of Bakehouse Studios and producer behind several of the album’s tracks, the production process began with understanding the stories behind the songs. “My approach was to listen to the heart of the song, wanting to understand the experience that the singer/songwriter went through to birth the song,” says Parroco.
“The sincerity and extremely high level of musicianship on this project made each song feel distinct in its own style, yet the consistent sonic character allowed the songs to belong to one album.”
John Valdes Tan, CBN Asia’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, says the partnership grew from a long-standing relationship with Parroco and a shared desire to pursue excellence in Christian music.
“As with many of our collaborations, we felt God’s hand guiding us to Jim Parroco,” says Tan. “He graciously offered his studio, expertise, and connections to help us elevate the quality of our recorded music. Additionally, he invited talented musicians from the US to collaborate with us, further enhancing our songs.”
For Reverb Worship, SEEN represents another milestone in its pursuit of musical excellence and its vision of bringing Filipino Christian music to a wider audience.
“The ultimate objective is to elevate our level of excellence, for the Lord deserves nothing less,” Tan says. “This album is another significant milestone as we strive to offer our utmost devotion to the Lord and our listeners. From here, we can only aspire to reach greater heights and expand our reach beyond the borders of the Philippines, sharing our music with the world.”
SEEN invites listeners to find pieces of their own stories in its songs—whether they are waiting, grieving, celebrating, healing, surrendering, or learning to hope again. At its heart is a simple reminder that even in the moments when we feel unseen, God is always there.
