But behind that catchy tune was a young man from Georgia who was about to flip the music industry on its head – and he was just getting started.

More Than a Melody: Finding God's Plan in the Music of Brandon Lake
There are moments when the blueprint for your life feels like it’s been shredded. A closed door, a delayed promise, a dream that shatters in your hands—we’ve all stood in the rubble, wondering if the architect has abandoned the project. As the voice behind Sunshine Firecracker, I’ve always sought out art that speaks to resilient faith. It's in those moments of uncertainty that a song like Brandon Lake's "Plans" becomes more than a melody. It becomes an anchor. It’s a testimony that God’s design still holds, even when our path is covered in debris.

Truth in Music: How Jelly Roll and Brandon Lake Shaped My Hallelujah After Lancaster County Prison
There are roads in life you don’t choose to drive. For me, that road led to court-ordered drug and alcohol treatment—punishment from false arrests that had nothing to do with who I truly was.

Progressively Covered
Introduction I wanted to do a playlist of progressive music that was maybe a littel different, and then remembered that Yes had covered Simon and Garfunkel's "America", and thought what about some unexpected covers of songs by artists that could be classed in the Progressive Universe, and four immediately came to mind.

Taylor swift new album
When 87% of fans say a single album changed their lives, you know it’s more than just music. That’s the kind of devotion Taylor Swift has cultivated over nearly two decades — and now, she’s about to test the limits of that loyalty with her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. The title alone shimmers with drama, glamour, and a promise of storytelling that only Swift can deliver. But behind the sparkle lies a fascinating tapestry of strategy, symbolism, and emotional connection that is already sending the Swiftie universe into overdrive.

OF LIMBO Have Leveled Up With New "Unplugged" LP
Long Beach, CA Rockers OF LIMBO have just released their new “Unplugged” album, which shows a deeper, more thoughtful side of the band. They have built a reputation of performing over-the-top, rowdy and fun live shows with their high energy version of heavier rock. This new LP showcases a more intimate and contemplative side, and they show growth and are leveling up - by exhibiting how broad a range they have beyond writing and performing hard rock bangers. The album showcases a quieter acoustic sound with a mix of original songs and 3 covers of classic tracks. They produced and mixed this set of songs at their home studio, and had it mastered at Long Beach Mastering by Brian Frederick.
