I’ve decided to keep you all updated on more than just the random Narnia posts here on the Blog. While we figure out what direction to take it, I figured that I might as well keep it active with something. Here’s an update on three of the many great musicians that appeared on the Inspired By soundtrack for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe:
David Crowder Band went back in the studio yesterday to begin work on their new album Remedy. They’ve also created a new website to allow fans to follow the process. Keep an eye at www.remedyiscoming.com for the latest from the studio! (from Jesusfreakhideout.com)
British band Delirious?, now headlining the Worship Revolution Tour of the United States with Rebecca St. James, will release a book of personal music-based stories, reflections, and devotions this April entitled I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever. A post at the group’s site says, “I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever explores the history, the passion, and the motivation of one of the most innovative and challenging worship bands around today. Read it and see for yourself that behind the albums and the international concert tours are five sold-out hearts desperate to make a difference in our generation.” Guitarist Stu G explains, “We wanted to write something that was honest but that was also interesting and helpful. We’re all aware that the world doesn’t need another rock band telling everyone how great they are, so we only wanted to get involved with a book project if we could keep the focus on Jesus rather than ourselves. So what we end up with – we hope – is something that charts the journey, showing how things have really been for us: with God as the captain and us as the confused by grateful little ones trying to follow His lead.” The Delirious? book tells the band’s inspiring story and offers spiritual reflections based on these songs: “Stronger,” “Now Is The Time,” “Here I Am, Send Me,” “Love Is A Miracle,” “Paint The Town Red,” “Did You Feel The Mountains Tremble,” “Our God Reigns,” and “I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever.” To read the first chapter (in PDF format), click here.
