All God connections.”
“And that’s the thing,” he continues. “God sometimes does His best work when we’re going about our daily tasks. I am humbled by His grace towards me.”
On the heels of their latest release, Yahweh Nissi<\/em><\/strong>, DiChiara and Empowered, who have had seven No. 1 hits on the indie charts in the last several years, are teaming up again with Dove Award-winning and Billboard<\/em> chart-topping singer\/songwriter\/producer Mikey Howard (7eventh Time Down) to produce their upcoming release, SALT<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The new project is due out in Spring 2025 from Slingshot Records.
“Go Forth,\u201d the lead single from the new project, is based on Mathew 5:13, in which Jesus says to His disciples, \u201cYou are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.\u201d
SALT<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>is a perfect album for these times.

About Benny DiChiara and Empowered:<\/strong>Singer\/songwriter\/survivor Benny DiChiara is the founder and frontman of the indie Christian Rock band, Empowered.
A New Orleans native, DiChiara is also a businessman, motivational speaker, father, and husband. Having come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ later in life, the U.S. Navy vet first fronted a secular rock band before surrendering his music to ministry.
Empowered, which DiChiara founded after giving his life to Christ, has become a staple of the live music scene in their home state of Louisiana, sharing the stage with such powerhouse artists as Switchfoot, MercyMe, Kari Jobe, Cody Carnes, 7eventh Time Down, Riley Clemmons, Phil Joel, Ryan Stevenson, and Jaci Velasquez.
The band first gained traction in the indie music world as their critically-acclaimed project, Three Days<\/em>, garnered six No. 1 hits on Indiegospel.net’s<\/em> Top 20 singles and Top 10 video charts.\ufeff<\/td>		<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The band\u2019s most recent Number 1 hit single (and music video), \u201cI\u2019ll Meet You There (Daddy\u2019s Song),\u201d which is featured on their latest EP,\u00a0Yahweh Nissi<\/em><\/strong>, was written after the death of DiChiara\u2018s father from cancer. DiChiara co-wrote the song, as well as the current single, “Jesus Can Heal the World,” with the project’s producer, Dove Award-nominated recording artist Mikey Howard (7eventh Time Down, Love Journey Music). In addition to\u00a0Yahweh Nissi,\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Howard also produced the band’s\u00a0Three Days<\/em>\u00a0EP.

Along the way, DiChiara has appeared on multiple national media outlets, including CBN\u2019s flagship show,\u00a0The 700 Club<\/em>; Cornerstone Television Network\u2019s flagship show,\u00a0Hope Today<\/em>;\u00a0The Christian Post’s\u00a0<\/em>online lifestyle magazine,\u00a0Crossmap.com;\u00a0<\/em>Inspiration.org;\u00a0Bill Martinez Live!<\/em>; NRBTV and WATC-TV 57 in Atlanta\u2019s award-winning TV show,\u00a0Babbie\u2019s House<\/em>;\u00a0LIFE Today Live\u00a0<\/em>with Randy Robison; World Christian Broadcasting; MRG Media;\u00a0The Meeting House<\/em>\u00a0on Faith Radio; popular Baton Rouge, Louisiana, lifestyle publication,\u00a0225 Magazine<\/em>, and many more.

In addition to his music, DiChiara has a powerful testimony of God’s mercy and healing that he loves to share.

In October 2015, a serious brain injury nearly took his life and his capacity to create music. DiChiara astonished doctors with a nearly full recovery, and the healing process turned into a creative season, during which the band’s chart-topping EP,\u00a0Three Days<\/em>, was written. And now, with Empowered’s latest EP,\u00a0Yahweh Nissi<\/em><\/strong>, DiChiara continues to proclaim his journey from lost to found, aimless to empowered, unapologetically bold in his faith and the message of Jesus’ saving grace.

\u201cGod spoke to me that He is looking for His people to not only claim Him, but to rise up with their voices to bring people back to Jesus,\u201d says DiChiara. \u201cI am not ashamed of the Gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes (Romans 1:16). This is the heart behind the title track, \u2018Yahweh Nissi,\u2019 which is a war cry for Jesus.

DiChiara and Empowered are honored to contribute to the work of the non-profit organization, Children’s Cup\u00a0(childrenscup.org<\/a>),\u00a0which works in regions where AIDS is rampant, poverty is crushing, and the ranks of orphaned and vulnerable children continue to swell.

DiChiara lives in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with his wife Donna.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
