3 ROCKIN' Bands w/ SPOKEN

SPOKEN

Bringing their new 2007 Self-titled  CD.
It won't take long for listeners of Spoken's sixth studio album to be reminded of how hard and fast the band can rock. The three songs that open the album, "History Erased," "Close Your Eyes" and "Not Soon Forgotten," start things off with nine minutes of blazing fast guitar riffs and loud and quick-rising vocals, all bounded by a full-sounding rhythm section.

After two albums for Tooth and Nail where the band explored more anthemic avenues, the quintet found itself re-examining its hard rock and metal roots on its third record for the label. The resulting album is an 11-song sonic attack that knows when to slow down the pace and when to pounce back like a slap to the face. "We didn't intentionally go for a heavier sound," guitarist Jef Cunnigham said. "We just wrote what came to mind and I think it turned into some of our best material." You can enjoy the musical variety from hardcore to edgy pop rock with Spoken!

Hear SPOKEN HERE!

With KINGSDOWN

the band mixes cues from the glory days of rock-n-roll with their own distinct sound and style to create a new breed of energetic and lively songs that are just as much at home in a backyard party as in a sold out arena. The live show is an energy packed production drawing crowds to experience life in a refreshing and exciting way. Catchy vocals, solid rhythm, and soaring leads are laced with piano and a variety of other electronic sounds.

ALSO: A LIFE ECHOED

A Life Echoed sets out to deliver an up beat, hard edged sound with a message that goes beyond just any chorus hook. Striving for truth in the midst of half-truths, for hope in a world riddled with despair, and for eternity in an existence of finality.

SARAH KELLY

Two Time Grammy Nominated Artist!

Bringing A NEW CD!

With her Janis Joplin-meets-Alanis Morissette growl and her decidedly worshipful lyrics, Sarah Kelly stood out when she arrived on the Christian music scene in 2004 with her Grammy-nominated debut Take Me Away. But behind her smile and platform of hope in Christ was an abusive past.

The sophomore release for Sarah Kelly, 'Where The Past Meets Today', released on Gotee Records this past August. It's a collection of her most sincere longings, a musing about pushing through life's hardest battles. The Grammy-nominated Kelly has now risen to the surface of the musical community as a singer-songwriter with determination.
