What happens to an artist when an acquaintance uses their under-the-radar song as the audition track on the show “So You Think You Can Dance”? She will end up like JJ Heller and find herself touring and playing multiple concerts each week. Throw in a secular debut for the Christian artist’s new [...]

Worship Albums That Aren’t “Worship”

“Young Mountain” by “This Will Destroy You”
The group “This Will Destroy You” is one of the many post/progressive rock bands that celebrate everything about life simply by playing music.

The Green Music List–growing environmental awareness through music

Radiohead “idioteque”
This is probably one of my favorite songs of all time, and I’m stingy with that title. Radiohead never struggles or scrimps to create a moving song whether through instrumentation or lyrics. I think that whether or not you’ve ever been a Radiohead fan, you cannot deny their power to effect emotions [...]

Movie Review: Zombieland

Seeing a loner sit in the corner of a local café who secludes himself until the wee hours of the morning writing a guide to survival in a fictitious place called “Zombieland” may seem ridiculous. How can a comedy flick sweep the pop culture scene if it revolves around a world corrupted by the dead?
