Micah Tyler

I was introduced to Micah by Spotify's Discover Weekly playlist. His song "Directions" was on a CD of music associated with God's Not Dead 2. 

Then on the radio, I heard this new song and instantly liked it. But, I had no idea who was singing! Usually, those are the songs they DON'T tell you who the artist is or the song name. This time, however, the nice DJ told me that it was a Micah Tyler song. It's only two songs so far, but I'm really liking this guy's stuff. Happy Listening!

Sunrise ~ The Afters

The Afters have a new album called "Live On Forever" and it's pretty good. By far, my favorite is the song Sunrise. There is so much hope in the lyrics of this song. It's all about looking forward from a dark time to the time when the sun rises again. I feel like there are a lot of songs being written like this right now, but that's a reflection of the state of peoples' hearts at this time and in this place. I know I need to constantly hear the message that God will bring the sunrise. 

Happy Listening!

Rooftops ~ JJ Weeks Band ft. Tedashii

Time to get up and dance! Rooftops is a fun, upbeat song about proclaiming what we as Christians know; namely, Jesus Christ. Happy Listening!

Welcome Andrew Marcus

I kept hearing this song on the radio and COULD. NOT. figure out who it was! It was driving me crazy. So I recorded part of it on my iPod and then typed the lyrics into the search bar. Voila! A new artist! 

Andrew Marcus reminds me a little of Matt Maher. I've only heard this one song, but his voice and style seem to be similar to Maher. This first single is positive, encouraging, and uplifting. It's a reminder of who our God is and His promises to us. Happy Listening!

Spencer Kane playlist

Spencer Kane is the new Anthem Lights guy but he was an artist before. I decided to look him up on Spotify and see what his solo stuff was like. I was blow away! 

When I found out about Shane Harper, I wanted to like his music. My problem was that basically all his songs were about relationships. I'm not against that, but I don't like listening to an artist who only sings about love, especially when they're not married. 

Spencer is not like Shane in that regard. He has fun songs, love songs, and songs about God. That last one is why I like his music so much. I like that he is a Christian artist who can make secular songs and Christian songs and make them both really well. 

It's the same with Anthem Lights. I like their fun songs and even some of their covers, but my favorites will always be originals and specifically, originals with a Christian message. 

Here is my Spencer Kane Spotify playlist. Happy Listening!

 

You Hold It All ~ Newsboys

I feel like this is almost a hymn. The lyrics proclaim how mighty and sovereign our God is. Literally everything is in God's hand and His control. That is comforting. 

Happy Listening!

Best of Relient K

Relient K is one of my favorite bands. I made a Spotify playlist of the best of RK (obviously my opinion). For some reason, That's My Jam is not on Spotify and they don't have the non-acoustic version of Fallen Man anymore. Also, the good Christmas songs aren't on there either. But enough talk. Happy Listening!
