Hope is Rising

We popped around to visit Simon and Cheryl and gave them some encouraging news. Simon was playing a ditty on the guitar and he had a few words. We sang together and the rest of us put in some contributions. By the time we had drunk some tea we had the song.

This recording happened somewhat by accident. A couple of weeks ago we got together to sing worship together at ourĀ house. We plugged in really just so that we could hear ourselves. I decided to push recordĀ and we ended up singing three songs. This one, then “Creator God Meditation” and finally “Place of Safety”. Those songs have their own Posts on this website.

The tech details for those interested. We are recording through a Tascam US – 16×08 device. Simon is playing a half size Samick directly in, Ian plays his Godin electric (LGXT) through a Vox tonelab SE, Cheryl and Tanya both play Keys through Logic on Electric Piano and Piano respectively. I play some Cahon with a bass pedal. Simon, Cheryl and Tanya all sing. The song starts strangely because Simon started singing and we didn’t have music etc, so the first part of the song was rather sketchy. As you can probably tell, no overdubs were done….
