Carolyn Arends’ New CD – Love Was Here First | preview and review

Carolyn

by Steve Bell

I am always astonished at how much Carolyn Arends can pack into a pop song. Her songs are consistently like those mythological abodes of fairy-tales that are magically bigger on the inside than they can possibly be from the outside.

New Jon Buller Album: Light Up the Sky – release date: Nov.1

Hello Everyone!

jonBullerIt is with great excitement that I am writing this in preparation to release my first original music CD in about 5 years. It is also with tremendous thanks to Steve Bell and the whole Signpost team, David Jennings of Incarnation Ministries and Roy Salmond from Whitewater Productions.

A week later, Mike showed up for rehearsals and I haven’t done a band tour without him since.
