Coming Soon! Hard Road!!!

The band I have been playing with for a couple of years now has finally finished the recording of our first album.  It has had it's challenges, but all good things do.  We will be setting a digital release date very soon (November) and hope to have some physical product for the CD lovers out there as well.

We have many influences, but our sound comes off like a 70s rock band.  We have some Skynyrd influences, Pink Floyd, ZZ Top, and host of others.  All of the songs point to Jesus first and foremost.  I think you all will love this as it is different than most of what the industry is putting out--even the smaller indie labels.

I will keep everyone up to date!

Congrats!

Fantastic, really looking forward to this one!

It will be different than my usual fare!  I am more of a hard rock/metal guy, and my band leans hard into the 70s.  Some of it rocks pretty hard, and a couple of songs are just mellow.

We have someone working on a lyric video for us for the title song.  I hope to have something to approve by tomorrow--maybe Monday at the latest.  I'd like to get the song out there before the album actually drops.

The album is live everywhere now.  You can stream it pretty much anywhere you choose.  I know Spotify and YouTube Music have it.  You can purchase downloads at Amazon or on BandCamp as well.

Please check out the album and spread the word!

I don't know if we will do CDs or not.  We are looking into the cost.  We just don't want to spend a ton on them and have cases of them sitting around when we die for someone else to throw away.

My lyric video guy quit on me.  We were trying to help a friend get back on his feet financially and asked him to do the video for us.  We nicely asked for revisions, and he quit.  I know he is going through some things with depression.  I just hope this doesn't set him on a downward spiral.

Anyway, I found someone on Fivver who does really good work.  So, we are waiting now for our first version of what this guy can do.  According to the agreement, he has 6 days to complete this job.  I am looking forward to seeing what we get.  I know--I could AI it, but a lot of those videos done with AI illustrations are starting to look the same.

If you haven't seen our first lyric video, here is the link.





If you would like to get the downloads, you can get them on Amazon Music or at Bandcamp.

I'm playing the video right now and downloading the album from bandcamp as well.
Are you and the two other singers splitting lead vocals on different songs, or just one lead singer with the other two of you doing background vocals?

There are three definite singers in the group!

Kris Robbie was the main vocalist, but he left in May to do a 14 month stint as a missionary in Estonia.
Tim Walker, who is not on the album, is our new vocalist who also plays rhythm guitar.

Paul Norfleet also plays guitar, some lead but not much, and sings the songs he wrote.

We did a version of my song "I'm Such A Fool" from my last Mission Of One album.  I sing on that one and do background vocals for everyone else when I can.  As you can tell from the bass work, I am a little busy on those five strings and find it more difficult to sing when I am playing more intricately.

Thanks for getting the downloads!!!

Cool!
I absolutely recognized "I'm Such A Fool" from Mof1!
This is a great project, I hope you guys can do some more live shows and write & record some more music together.

I've to fix the sound on my computer CD players first before I can listen.
