Live from the Strip is a more recent release than 1995's Sacred (which is reviewed elsewhere), featuring an entirely different set of songs, and Kate really seems to have come into her own in the four years between. This live set embraces a more rock-and-roll feel, featuring among others Walter Rodriguez on drums and percussion, David Miner on bass, and Derri Daugherty on electric guitars. Nods to U2 can be heard in the instrumentation, and Kate's deep voice carries well, and it is easy to get a feel for the concert atmosphere. For modern worship, this is a lively and rousing set.
Although it will seem trite to complain about length when it comes to music aimed at worshiping the Lord, some of the songs clock in at over five minutes, just a bit too long for most listeners' attention spans. Other than that, Kate Miner has a gift to sing songs of worship to her Creator.
