Matt Maher’s First Official Music Video

Many congrats to Catholic artist Matt Maher for releasing his first official music video. The video is for his latest single “Rise Up.” While I’ve heard this song play several times on my iTunes playlist, hearing it again today could not have come at a better time.

Zooey and Joe ask “What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?”

In song, of course. Minutes after I posted my review of Joe’s book, I saw this video pop up on Twitter. I love it. Too cute.

I haven’t been able to get this song out of my head for the past week! It is so good. In fact, the entire new album, Ceremonials, is quite good. Be sure to check it out!

Music Review: This Winter’s Eve by Sarah Hart

 This Winter’s Eve by Sarah Hart (2011) The Christmas season is my favorite time of the year. It’s the season where San Francisco’s skyline is lit up in millions of tiny bulbs, our church’s altar is decorated with poinsettias, and a time where I can bring out my Christmas music collection and sing along to familiar carols and the occasional new tune. I love the sounds of Christmas, but rarely find new songs that add anything more to such a [...]

Music Monday: Halloween Edition

Happy Halloween! I admit that I am not a fan of Halloween. Even as a little girl my parents practically had to drag me to do anything Halloween-related. But, truth be told, I love the video I’m posting up today and there is no better day than Halloween. And, just for kicks…one more…

Music Monday: “Build a Wall” by Burlap to Cashmere

Haven’t been able to get this song out of my head since I first heard it. Burlap to Cashmere is back with a great album and better than ever. Would love to see them in concert with Mumford and Sons. Live performance video up first followed by album track and a behind the scenes look. Yup, I couldn’t really decide what video to feature…might as well do all three!
