Moving Ahead...

Just thought I'd put a quick update on here as to where I'm at with the new album. I have decided to put fifteen songs on the new CD, all of which I wrote, and am really happy with how they are turning out. I can hear a lot of maturity in my new songs, and I hope others will be able to hear it as well.

I have finished up the vocals for about eleven of the fifteen songs. Me and my brother went out the other day to take pictures for the artwork, and he is currently working on the design.

I have decided to name the new CD "Moving Ahead" not only cause one of my favorite songs on it is also named that, but because it is a theme I see consistently throughout the 15 songs. This is the second album, therefore I am Moving Ahead to greater things with this one. Moving Ahead also means to rid ourselves of those things that have had us bound for so long and move into what God has planned for us.

I have really poured my heart and soul into these songs, and I can only hope that that bleeds through the speakers when people listen to them. My greatest wish is that God will touch many lives through these songs and that they will make an impact on our young generation.

anyhow thats it for now, and I will be posting new pix from the shoot soon, and some new music probably shortly after the first of the year.

New Song

here is me singing a song that I wrote, the vocals on the vid are not that
good cause we had just put a melody to it and recorded the music the
night before I sang it so I was still learning it and a little unsure therefore its far
from perfect, but here it is anyhow...hope you like it.

More News...READ IT!

Hey everyone I just thought I'd let you know that I'm doing really good, and I've been super busy recently that's why I haven't posted anything for a while...

WAY tour was really good once again this year, it was very different than last year, but good nonetheless...

Our church is still in the midst of an awesome move of God, I believe that this is just the beginning of an even greater out pouring of his spirit! Tonight some of the youth got together for a prayer meeting, it was so awesome! Then after we were done praying we all stayed around and encouraged one another for a long time...it was BAWM...haha lol.

Anyways I've been recording a lot of new demos lately, since our studio got finished last week!!! Its so nice I love it... I'll post some pix of it later! I'm really excited about my new music and I can't wait till EVERYONE can hear it too!!!

So pretty much I don't know what else to talk about at the moment but I'm going to start to try and update this blog more often!

Ooh yea something else that I haven't posted about yet is that I'm learning how to play the guitar :) I'm so excited and I can't wait till I'm good enough to play in church!!! lol

anyway...
peace,

God Is So Good

I just wanted to write this post about how wonderful God has been to me! Last night a bunch of us stayed at the church praying, drunk in the spirit till 1:10 am!!! I can honestly say that this was the most powerful move of God I have ever felt in my entire life! God spoke numerous times to us through tongues of interpretation! The time flew by so quick and it didn't seem like we were basking in his presence for 4 1/2 hours! but we were!!! I'm really at a loss for words, I don't have enough words in my vocabulary to express how amazing it was! The only way you will ever know is to experience it for yourself!!! I really believe that this is only the beginning of what God has in store for our church, and the city of Hanford...better yet, the WORLD!!!

WE HAVE THE VICTORY!!!

UPDATE!!!

Okay so WOW its been over a month since i posted a blog!

SO much has been going on in my life I can't even begin to explain it all... But I do want to say thank you to EVERYONE that has bought my album to help support my ministry...And If you havent bought it yet its NEVER too late ;) lol

Recently I have been writing and recording a lot of new demos, and I can already see tons of growth in me as a song writer and a singer and most importantly in my walk with God... there is always room for improvement, but I have come a LONG way since I recorded "Back To You" and I can't wait to share my new material with everyone!

We (JNP) are currently in the process of building a new (bigger) studio... and we have just recently upgraded all of our equipment to Pro Tools (which is what they use in big studios like in Nashville) well anyways... it is way better than what I recorded "Back To You" on.

I'm hoping to back into the studio next fall/winter (which means that an album would come out around spring 09) I can tell you for certain that this next album is going to be SOOOO much better than my first album in EVERY way (quality, songs, vocals, production, EVERYTHING)

SO pretty much in order for me to Make the new Album YOU need to buy the one thats already out, so that I can afford it...lol ;)

Until next time...

I'll Be Singing At Hanford Christian School...

I'm am so nervous about tomorrow (feb 26th) because I was invited to sing four of my songs for a chapel service at my old school... AAAHHHH! So Tomorrow at eight thirty pray for me cause I'll be singin my little heart out in front of the WHOLE student body. I'm pretty excited, but also very nervous (obviously). I'm going to be singing four of the songs off my album (What's Love, Fight and Win, Back To You, and Salvaged Souls)

It'll be pretty neat to go and visit my old stomping grounds, and talk with some of my teachers! I talked to one of my old teacher today on the phone, and she seemed pretty excited that I was coming to sing for them... So I'm trusting in God that EVERYTHING will go well, and I'll wake up tomorrow with a well rested voice, (and that I won't squeak, and embarrass myself)...lol well anyhow I'll try and post something about how it all goes soon...
