Tmber!



Our friend and hero John Escher with Tmber.com ("We hike and make videos to help you find your way") traveled with us to Mt. Rainier for our camping/hiking/skillet-cookin'/video shoot at Grove of the Patriarchs. Check out his blog for some great pics, and soon he'll have up a video of the hike we journeyed together. We had perfect weather for our camp fire on Friday night, and awoke to gentle rain showers and 1,000 year old trees... I can't remember smelling fresher, more delicious air in all my life. And being rain-kissed makes the distance between you and that raw mountain just a little thinner. We'll have the new music video up soon, so stay tuned! Thanks to John for his great video and hiking expertise, and also to our friend Jonas G for his excellent audio support. Thanks for reading.

Mt. Rainier camping / music video shoot


We're packing up the bacon, eggs and iron skillet getting ready to head up to Mt. Rainier to wander the alpine meadows, sniff wildflowers, skip river rocks, & sleep under the stars and towering trees. We're also recording a new song/video called "Grove of the Patriarchs" inspired by the 1,000 year old trees along the Ohanapecosh river. Photos and video to come soon! Stay tuned!

Swiss-army-knife-phone and Twitter



Now that I have a swiss-army-knife-phone (iPhone 4) so I can take photos of Harper (it's all for the children, right?) I'm starting to wade into the water of Twitter. I've had to figure out my philosophy on tweeting. It's clearly a way to let you all know about concerts etc. but it's also a way to share more of the soil from which our music and abolition work sprouts.

It's taking you around in my pocket; very portable, and personal. So I hope you enjoy some of the photos and small windows into my life and the lives of those in JUBILEE. All in all, the songs I write are a way of panning for gold... attempting to magnify, and further appreciate what is true, good, beautiful. "And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise." Philippians 4:8
