I am a christian singer songwriter from Northern Ireland. I am involved in missionary work to the Ukraine. On my first trip to an orphanage I brought along a guitar and played I`m in the Lord`s army. I remember a very sad looking young girl begin to smile and then she jumped up and started to clap her hands. I asked her if she wanted to hear the song again and she nodded her head. On the way home from that mission trip I thanked the Lord in prayer for that one moment of happiness and the smile on that young girls face. I thanked the Lord that taking a guitar all the way there had been worthwhile just for that little girl. I then felt the Lord leading me to write songs and to dat I have written over 149 songs. I have put songs on shoutlife,myspace and mychristianbands as wel as other sites. I am amazed and humbled that so many people have been encouraged by them. I would love to get involved in benefit concerts for those most in need in this world and I would love to have my songs on a record label one day so that I can support the mission work that I am involved in.
God bless you
Joseph Beggs
Why this name?
It is my real name and a good Bible name.
Do you play live?
Yes I have played live a few times but awaiting more opportunity as the Lord leads. I have played a home gig and in churches a few times. I have been asked to play at a mission outreach and am waiting on contact. I want to play in the open air during the summer months. I love open air meetings A special moment to me is to see the encouragement on peoples faces as they connect with the words of the songs.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It gives more freedom to what the Lord wants people to hear and more freedom of choice for what sort of music the listeners want to listen to as well. Especially as some music is all recorded at home and not in a profesional studio.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes I would as it would make the music more available to a wider audience and therefore would generate more finances for the mission field.
Band History:
Your influences?
Easy listening acoustic guitar. I also play a little harmonica and other instruments
Favorite spot?
Any where that I can view God`s beautiful creation. I love ocean views and forests especially
Equipment used:
My main instrument is an Ovation Pinnacle deluxe semi acoustic guitar and I use a Boss BR1180CD digital recording studio to record on.
Anything else...?
My inspiration comes from what I have seen on the mission field and by the will of the Lord.
