Revive Project Update

I realized that while I’ve been updating our backers at our Kickstarter site, I have been leaving out updates for the general public on what’s happening with the Revive Project now that the fund-raising is over. So if you are wondering what’s been happening, to answer your question – well…A LOT.

First off, we are officially booked to record with Invertigo Productions (Stephen Gause) in Nashville from July 5-15th. That is a very short amount of time to do what we need to do but we are hopeful and confident we can accomplish all of the recording in that amount of time. We are shooting for a 10-song EP of which one tune we’ve already finished – Awaken (Let the Whole World Sing) – and if you didn’t download it yet – well that’s just downright foolish. (You can find it at iTunes and Amazon through the links to the right.)

Lauren and I have been finding ourselves songwriting inspired lately and have been popping out (almost wrote “pooping out” there) a lot of song ideas that we’re going to begin working through with Stephen in the next couple of weeks through Skype.

On top of that, we are in talks with some folks in Reading about putting together a short documentary about Reading city – her past, present, and future. There is also some other talk of a music video for the single Awaken. We will see what all transpires but we are very excited for all the possibilities.

Lastly, we’re still working with Berks Community Foundation to pinpoint the areas of need the albums’ funds will support. A lot of this decisions process won’t happen until the funds start coming in and the present needs of the city are prioritized at that time.

We’re very excited about all that lies ahead and we ask for you continued thoughts and prayers as we enter into the extremely creative portion of this project – the songwriting and production. Please pray for inspiration and creativity to flow through us like living water.

If you never got to pledge or give towards the Revive Project but would like to do so, you can still make that happen. We are still in need of about $1,400 to be able to make the album everything we hope to make it. Please contact us if you’d like to donate towards the Revive Project. We’ll make sure to keep everyone more updated throughout the process as we move into Phase 2.

Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement. We could not have gone this far without you.

Blessings
