anberlin – Cities

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

CitiesI should preface this quick review with a simple WOW.

Anberlin is growing up and it shows throughout their third album. Stephen’s voice has matured well while retaining the edge that makes him distinct.

If you liked Never Take Friendship Personal or Blueprints for the Black Market then you should really check this album out. You can preview it at anberlincities.com.

Jadon Lavik, BarlowGirl, and Rebecca St. James in Concert.

Friday, March 3rd, 2006

Deb and I attended a good concert last night. RSJ_tour_poster.jpg

The opening act, Jadon Lavik, was my favorite. BarlowGirl was good, but a little too loud for the venue. They had some issues dealing with the echo, especially on their faster songs. Rebecca St. James played a good mix of her music and had a great positive message.

I’ve already preordered Jadon’s new album and grabbed a copy of his premier album at the same time. Here are a couple links if you’re interested.
