Are you following Aaron Ivey on Twitter?  You should be if you’re a Spur58 fan.  Spur58 doesn’t technically exist anymore, but Bush (bass), Jimmy (guitars), and Aaron (lead vocals and keys) are still making music under Ivey’s name.  Why the change?  Well in part, because Spur officially ended when Ivey took a job at Austin Stone Community Church leading worship.  None the less, the music making continues, and that’s good news if you like good music.  Spur58 made some amazing music, wrote some of the most moving worship songs I’ve ever heard, and they rock hard!  Check out studio updates on:

Charlie Hall – The Bright Sadness

September 24th, 2008 | Category: Faith,Music,Review

Charlie Hall’s music is a security blanket.  There are an enumerable amount of personal thoughts, recollections, good times, and God-thoughts attached to his music in my life. There are specific times in my life when God enlivened a Biblical truth in my life in part due to a Charlie Hall lyric.  As a former worship leader he influenced my leading style probably more than any other person.  His words inspire, his style is always a little different from the norm, and as I’ve heard Louie Giglio say, “He’s a worship leader’s worship leader.”  Charlie Hall, from what little I know of him, is an awesome guy.  He has cool facial hair and he drinks his coffee black (I know because he came into Starbucks one time when I was working, ordered black coffee, and I got to talk to him for just a second).

The Bright Sadness, Charlie’s newest effort, does not disappoint.  The lyrics are honest and Scripture-saturated.  Musically you have to listen a few times to really dig the feel, but it will grow on you like kudzu if you let it.

I unabashedly give this record 5 out of 5 cups of black coffee!
