Wow. There are tons of things coming up within the next few weeks that I need to direct everyone's attention to!  I have some great musician friends that are putting out records, and Landon Smith and I recorded a Christmas tune that will be out next week, so without further yakking, here is the timeline:

Poema, "Once a Year" -  These girls harmonize together fantastically, and they are genuinely some of the nicest people I've ever met. Their Christmas EP, "Once a Year" comes out tomorrow on Itunes and Amazon MP3, check out the preview on Amazon here (I think "Wool Coats" will be a favorite):

Abraham the Poor, "After the Flood, Into the Wild" - My good buddy Josh Gaines returns with his sophomore record "After the Flood, Into the Wild"  If you're into Iron and Wine or Ray Lamontagne-style music, you definitely do not want to miss his new record! It's due out mid-December, so I'll keep you guys posted, or google "Abraham the Poor" for more information

Landon Smith and The Real Matt Jones, "Christmas Anthem" - Landon Smith and I teamed up for the recording of this song - it's an old hymn, but we redid the chords and melody in a very upbeat, John Denver-esque, hoedown Christmas tune.  Landon and I both sing, harmonize, and play instruments on this one...can't wait for you guys to hear it!  It will be available to download next Tuesday, November 23rd on Itunes and Amazon mp3!

DSC Band, "Cause for Praise" - I recently played electric guitar on a live worship record called "Cause for Praise" that was recorded at the church where I attend, Desert Springs Church. I've heard about 5 of the 10 mixes for songs that will be on this record, and they are sounding incredible. My buddy Drew Hodge is singing, and there's cello, choir, and all kinds of stuff on this record to really enjoy. I'll keep you posted when this is due out, it's looking like the first week of December...

At any rate, I just wanted to direct you guys to a handful of good music that will be out soon - hope you're having a great Monday, check back in with you soon!
