A great message along with some nice acoustic work from a friend.

Leaving what is behind, I press on to the high goals of the future.

We wanted to write songs that would touch people and that Mary enjoyed singing. Dad wrote all the songs, and various friends and family musicians helped on the recordings.
These are the final mixes!!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We have played live in central Ohio, but some of the family is away at college, so we are working on soundtracks for a concert.
Your musical influences
Dad's musical taste span from big band to Linkin Park. John likes Creed, Switchfoot, Staple, Skillet, and others. Mary likes Evanescence, Barlow Girl, and a new touring group she went to high school with called Waiting For Iris.
What equipment do you use?
I use an Alesis keyboard for the MIDI work, with Cakewalk Sonar, Project 5, my computer, and an AudioTechnica mike with a Behringer tube pre-amp. We borrowed a POD guitar amp. My son plays a PRS Mark Tremonti guitar.
Anything else?
Dad likes good songs, and mostly writes, although he has played a few instruments.

Love your sound/message! i hear the
Evanescence influence. Im a Huge Stryper fan myself. Nice work. Keep the fire burning!
Wanted to take a very long-overdue moment to thank you for stopping by our goofy little plate of songs...and to tell you after listening to "Altar" and a couple of other songs that the singing is terrific and the music is super-solid! A real treat, you guys are. May God continue to bless and equip you in all that you do.
In Christ,
Hi Jon!
Finally got around to listening to the new mix. Sounds great! I'm going to have to stop by and get a CD! I was reading through some of the messages and I'm not surprised to see how your music is being recieved. They all have a great sound and deep messages. And all the songs are unique; they're not repetitive.
I can't wait to hear what else you come up with! God bless! Michael Hoten
I'm loving your style! Such annointed lyrics, such a beautiful voice as well. Your lyrical style is such a cool contrast over the hard rock sound of "Altar". The words in that sound depict such intimacy with the Lord, and it is truly moving, making the listener want a to present his or herself as a "living sacrifice" on the Altar.
I commend John on the great lyrics and Mary on the beautiful , lyrical style. I added you guys to like 10 of my soundclick stations, and I'll be adding you to more in the future.
I emailed you about using your song "Altar" on a compilation c.d. that will be given out freeto all you that attend the back-to-school rally "A Heart for War" which will be held on Friday, August 11th at Anchor Church in Ridge Manor, FL.
The e-mail has more details, please let me know if it is ok to use your song. Also, if you get a chance, listen to our music and let me know what you think on our message board.
Keep doing what your doing for Christ, it is such a b
Saw your post on CSN...thanks for letting us know you have new songs. The Altar is very moving...added it to my station...God bless you!
