Youth Alive Newcastle also released 'We Declare the Power[1]' in 1994.

A Youth Alive Australia conference called OUR RVIVL held in South Australia in 2016

Since 2017, Youth Alive Queensland has been the major contributor to the national Youth Alive music. They released their first single We the People in January 2017, which peaked at No. 68 on the Australian iTunes Chart.[2] This was followed up by their first EP released later in April under the same name. The EP included three live recorded songs from the Youth Alive Conference in Brisbane, as well as the single. In January 2018, Youth Alive Queensland released their second single Mad in Love / The Deep. This was followed by their first album, Mad in Love, which was recorded live at their annual conference in January. Mad in Love was released in August 2018 alongside their annual United We Stand event. On 30 August 2019, Youth Alive released a standalone worship song titled "Belong," which was their only release for 2019. Prior to their 2020 conference, the band released the "Love on Repeat" EP on 13 January, which is their first majority studio-recorded release.
