Studio Pix 2


Jake was cold.


Some of our friends stopped by the studio... one of them was none other than Zach Hunter. A good buddy of ours over the past few years. Everyone should read his books.



The creepiest instrument in the world.


We call him one take timmy.


Nothing like some crisp air and coffee to make a man feel alive. Looks like a JC Penny's ad or something.



Wish I had a wurli!


Tracking live together.


Poor Mike is in his isolation chamber.


This is Mike's "i've had a long but productive drum day" face.


Feel free to write your own captions on this one.

Studio Pix 1

So... we're recording the first noises (drums & bass) for our next record! Really excited. More pix and video to come. The tricky thing is that we can't let you guys hear these songs until they're totally done. So... maybe more pix than video. :-)

Resting in God

Hey everyone its Leeland here!! Im on the bus headed to Houston to pick up the rest of the guys for some shows this week in Texas!! I hope this finds you well! I pray that all of you are happy and encouraged about the future that God has for you!! Today in the studio while song writing we began to just worship God together and rest in HIs presence. I haven't felt the Love of Jesus that strong in a long time. It was so strong that I started to weep and cry. I just heard the spirit of God say that we need to find time to rest in Him. Some times I think we can get so busy and our days can get so full that there is no room for the refreshment that we receive from the presence of God. After Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights the bible says that angels came and ministered to Him (Matthew 4:11) . We don't have to prove ourselves to Him, and we don't have to make ourselves appear strong enough. It's actually in our weakness that were made strong through Him. Were already qualified to be His son or daughter through Jesus and what He did on the cross. So make sure and find time in your day to sit back and with arms wide open receive His love. I love you and Jesus love you oh and He's proud of you!!

Be blessed everyone see you soon!!

Vlog 8 - Song Writing



Hey ya'll. Hope you're having a wonderful day. The weather here in Franklin is starting to get a little warmer (50's), and we're on our third day of song writing. There's a million ideas we're processing through and making them into full songs. Hopefully you'll get to hear them at some point. Today has been nice because there's one of those Kuerig single cup coffee makers here in the studio and I've been going crazy on that thing. It's amazing... you press one button and presto! A hot cup of perfect coffee is sitting there for you. So cool. Also, there's a really cool old piano here and I've had a blast playing on it. Leeland's been messing around with guitar stuff when we're not writing lyrics and such.

God is so awesome! He keeps on dropping these songs and lyrics in our laps and we're so excited to see them take shape. Gotta go!

love love love
