Ep: 73 - Taya Gaukrodger

(Hillsong UNITED)

Host Jimi Williams talks with Taya Gaukrodger, formerly known as Taya Smith, in Sydney, Australia. Taya is one of Hillsong's creative leaders, best known for her vocals on UNITED's songs "Oceans" and "Touch the Sky." Taya has been part of Hillsong's worship movement for nine years, and in this podcast episode, she gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at her co-written track, "Clean," from UNITED's new album, People. She also shares about the importance of team nights, seeking God in your daily life, and was even quizzed on Australian animal sounds. The Worship Together team also recaps a variety of different Easter service experiences and the songs led for worship. Hunter recaps that “it was cool to see the response to songs that we’ve sung for a while by fresh ears (referring to new people visiting on Easter that may have not visited the church before)”.
