A little while ago, in a galaxy not so far away, Mal Fletcher started making public appearances not as a speaker or media presenter but as a singer/songwriter/musician (piano & keyboards).
Mal doesn't normally perform these days, but we thought you might like to hear some of the backlist -- just for fun!
'Come Holy Spirit (Fall Afresh on Me)' is Mal's best known song -- it is still being recorded on albums around the world today -- but he also wrote many other songs. He was involved in co-producing some of the earliest Youth Alive albums (e.g. 'Shake This City' and 'Shake This City 2') but he also recorded three solo albums, for which he wrote most of the tracks.
Here are a few clips from these early albums, recorded between 1984 and 1989, in Australia and the UK. Click to listen to a clip. (Remember: if they sound very 80s, it's because they were!!)
Mal's favourites? 'I Want To Be Real', 'Come Holy Spirit' and 'Come Away'

Mal visited our Church today. I wanted to meet him, but I was working the camera. I'm a 16yr old Christian writer & currently some of my work is in the youth version of "Everyday with Jesus".

Mal, you've totally inspired me to be more active about the media world I'm in. I'm trying to find more ways to use my media skills to help people meet God. It's people like you that have been the spark to start this explosion. Thank you, I'm in ranks with you...
