    Its an artist you can hear over and over and songs you can even enjoy on repeat. There is something in each song that can capture you and draw you closer.

    It had been a while since I last listened to these guys. I enjoy the whole album. There's an authenticity in the vocals that is rare now. I notice a similarity to Shane & Shane. Good memories, good music.

    A great bunch of guys. I had the honor of meeting them in New Haven, CT at The Space. Keep praising the Lord.
