An understated superstar that casually moves about the musical radar, Darlene Zschech takes the accolades, the business, the recording and performing, every detail surrounding the music she writes and sings, in a steady stride.

An ordinary person made well-known by her faithful use of a God-given gift for music, Zschech is known worldwide as songwriter of contemporary worship for the Church and worship pastor at Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. But everyday life and personal passions hold her attention the most: her commitment to Christ, her family and her music, young women in crisis and the impoverished around the world, her home church and her work there.

There must be days when that's not easy if she stops to considers that 25 to 30 million people around the world sing her songs every week in corporate worship or that the classic "Shout to the Lord" has now been recorded by over 50 artists, but Zschech responds genuinely to such responsibility, "I don't take a minute of it for granted. I'm a very ordinary person, saved by grace and trying to serve God to the best of my ability, and I am very overwhelmed that I would be here today."

With her second solo project for INO Records, Change Your World, Zschech takes time to explore the songs she writes on the side, "my little hobby," as she calls it, her opportunity to write and record songs that reflect her life and growth. "With the first record Kiss of Heaven, I was rediscovering what kind of music I even enjoyed. I had laid down my likes for such a long time in my role of serving the church; I had to sort of silence that side of me for a long time. These new songs are just a continuation of that journey of discovery."
