Foy’s single, Be With Me, is released today… go buy it! His new album is released on July 2nd, titled Hope, and let me tell you… it is well worth buying! I managed to get my hands on an early copy (thanks Foy!), and it has got some superb tunes on it. The single “Be With Me” and “Two Shades Of Love” are my favourite tracks so far.
You can buy the single on iTunes or pre-order the album from Townsend Records.
Well, for a while! My internet is now fixed. Here I go catching up on a weeks worth of emails/blogs/flickr.
Check out this amazing song, We Are Broken by Paramore (you can listen to it on youtube here). The lyrics are incredible…
I am outside
And I’ve been waiting for the sun
With my wide eyes
I’ve seen worlds that don’t belong
My mouth is dry with words I cannot verbalize
Tell me why we live like this
Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me
Yeah
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole
Lock the doors
Cause I’d like to capture this voice
it came to me tonight
So everyone will have a choice
And under red lights
I’ll show myself it wasn’t forged
We’re at war
We live like this
Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole
Tower over me
Tower over me
And I’ll take the truth at any cost
Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole

Some of my shots from the Casting Crowns gig last night are here on flickr now. Was really touched by the humility of the band… best Christian music gig I’ve been to in a long while. Check out Connors pictures from it too, he’s got some great shots.
At Whitewell preparing for the Casting Crowns gig tonight. Taking some pictures and generally doing whatever I’m asked!
Stuff I’m listening to right now…
e.s.t. – generally!
The gig last night was good (though I’m not so sure I like the songs that are purely synthesiser) Will have some pictures up on my Flickr sometime in the next week.
Viktoria Tolstoy – Love Is Real
She supported e.s.t. last night, along with the Jacob Karlzon Trio. (Billed as the Viktoria Tolstoy Quartet) She was quite amazing actually! Her voice is great, and Jacob Karlzon on the keys was stunning… would like to get some more of their music.
Rosie Thomas – These Friends Of Mine
I downloaded just this one song, I’d like the album now though! Heard of her through a blog post, where she was described as,
“just sublime. feels like the sound of wanting to touch another’s fingertips with your own with tentativeness and tenderness and the sadness that you can’t, or won’t, for fear you would lose your soul to love…”
Which I think is a very adequate description!
This evening I’m off to see my favourite band… soo excited!
e.s.t. are playing in the Fruitmarket in Glasgow tonight. I remember finding out they were playing in Belfast about a year and a half ago… I found out the night before, and unfortunately had to work! Ally also likes e.s.t, and was pretty annoyed at having to miss the gig too, if I remember correctly!
I love their song ‘Dolores In A Shoestand’ from their latest album, Tuesday Wonderland.
