More Tracking Footage

I'm back from vacation with my family, and we were planning to hit the studio tomorrow bright and semi-early, but someone had a conflict and we got the day semi-off. I'll be answering emails, making sense of my office (which still hasn't been sorted out since our move), and taking care of some details regarding my novel.

I dug up a few more clips of last week's tracking session, where we're working on a semi-new song called The Good Confession. It's a song that I've been carrying parts of around for a few years now and just managed to finish it a month or two ago. I've heard these big, epic drums and guitars and strings in my head since I wrote it, so it was satisfying to hear Paul and Matt nail it.

It's semi-one in the morning and I'm semi-tired. Have a great Monday.

That song sounds great! Can't wait to hear the rest. The whole "epic drums" bit kind of reminds me of "Fix You"/Coldplay.

So far, based on the snippets I've heard, this song has the makings of one of my favorites!

Andrew, Ben and Andy, It's such a delight seeing you guys at work, esp. w/ new music on the way. Thanks for posting this stuff. And Andy, the most-requested song at the prison Bible studies & services right now is your "Give Me Grace" ("The last time I was here, I swore that I would change...") They thought you wrote it for us. Love you guys.

Give me Grace is one my favorite AG songs! Never Let Me Down is a great one too. Way better than the one by Jill Phillips.

mike p, the inmates like Jill's take of Never Let Me Down. We actually just played it on Sunday, while reading Matt 7:21-24 and pinpointing what Jesus in this passage calls the difference between the sand and the rock foundation.

Joy- that's great. I was just kidding with the Jill comment, though. Jill & Gully are both way at the top of my short list of favorites.
