Birthday Cards – Korby Lenker
I was about to celebrate a birthday. Celebrate was not the word. I was in a mood. People with enormous egos do not age gracefully. That was one of the quotes, actually. The one on the top card.

13. August 2009
Dave Pettigrew is a super-talented songwriter and performer. He lives in New Jersey and his last cd was full of great songs with catchy hooks! (I reviewed it here). He shared a video of a song he JUST wrote for a service last weekend, and it really made an impact on me. I asked him [...]

13. August 2009
IT HAS BEEN A FEW MONTHS NOW, but after thirty years of playing music full-time, and after twenty plus years of singing in churches and other venues, I decided it was time to stop. I agonized in prayer and concluded that it was time to set music aside. Being published in 2005 (TO LOVE IS [...]

13. August 2009
Washed by the Water is a sort of redemption song about the Louisiana flooding... I have adapted the meaning to my life... Let's face it, sometimes the levee breaks... It reminds me to just pray and get up one more time. (Music starts at 1:32).

2. July 2009
Transparent: The first time I heard your CD, I was blown away by your voice. When did you first start singing and when did you know you had a gift? David: I think I was born singing! My mom said I used to tie my jump rope to my little red wagon and sing using the handle as the microphone. I would sing to neighbors, the mailman and anyone who would listen!

2. July 2009
A songwriting friend of mine told me that when a song can cross genres and still work, it's truly a sign of a WELL written song. Plus, this performance is amazing!

17. June 2009
A "Mashup" is the combining of music, video, voice or data to develop something different and useful from the parts. I love "Kutiman's" Mashup Videos. Thanks to Bill Seaver for introducing these to me. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Jason

27. May 2009
I was watching one of those cheesy but great claymation Christmas TV specials with my kids and heard the song "we're a couple of misfits" and inspiration hit. See, I was one of those kids (and adults for that matter) who never really fit in. A square peg in a round whole type deal.
