Together and Fun Intro

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

I couldn’t resist posting another house show piece from that New York high rise house show back in 2007.  I like this because it reveals how a loose, improvisational intro is a great way to break the ice, hand out percussion, do a sound check, and just blow the dust of your brain.  This song is Together from the Third Circle.

Still I Cry Out

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

A live house concert clip from a high rise in New York city.  Found this in the archives and thought the intro was encouraging for anyone who is looking to overcome the hustle and bustle and sometimes anti-relational funk of big city life.  The song is from Chair and Microphone, Vol. 1 originally.

I Need Love, Live!

Friday, September 4th, 2009

Here is a great clip from a concert where Ben and Robin Pasley were joined by Karla Adolphe who leads out in this great performance of I Need Love from the Chair and Microphone, Vol. 3 album.

Involving Learners in our Worship Teams

Friday, August 21st, 2009

Here is a candid download from Ben Pasley on the value of involving new folks in our worship teams who are learners–or apprentices–in the worship team. This 10 minute talk outlines the basics of training a team and also introduces a simple, anyone-can-do-it strategy for growing a healthy worship team.

Writing the song: I Will Bow

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Another awesome songwriting overview where Ben and Ben were coming together on the song I Will Bow from the Second Circle.

Keep Your Eyes Open

Monday, June 8th, 2009

The first in a series of encouragements called “Worship Leading Breadcrumbs.”  These are the crumbs you leave along a trail to keep people moving in a healthy direction, but not meant to bring hard laws or stiff rules to every occasion.  Enjoy.

Writing: First Love

Tuesday, May 12th, 2009

Another great feature from the Second Circle where Ben Kennedy plays on first rough draft almost exactly as he would record this song to the CD.  So simple, so good:  First Love.

Writing Rush River Rush

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

Ben Kennedy is a great songwriter.  His talent really shines on the Second Circle. Here he is submitting the song Rush River Rush for the first time on minidisc.  If you listen to the album cut you can find the lyric edits and mods we made before the final recording.

Second Circle: Writing Tiny

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

The song name is “Tiny” and it is from the album Second Circle released in 2001.  Wow, it has been that long.  Well, I just found some minidisc recordings of some of those early writing sessions…enjoy!

Prophecy and Music, Part 2

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

This is an excerpt from our Arts in Ministry Gathering in January of 2009.  We hope this quick overview of the gift of prophecy and its relationship to the musician, artist, worship leader, etc. will be encouraging to you!
