HELLO AGAIN!!!! I KNOW I AM NEW FAN, BUT YOU GUYS ARE NOW BY FAR MY NEW FAVORITE CHRISTIAN BAND!!!! THERE ARE OTHERS I REALLY LIKE, BUT YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!!! YOUR GUYS'S MUSICIANSHIP IS DEFINITELY A GIFT FROM GOD!!!!! WOW!!!!!! YOU GUYS DESERVE EVERYTHING THAT HAS COME BEFORE YOU!!!!! GOD IS GOOD!!!! SISTER IN CHRIST
Something I always liked about the band MercyMe was how open they were about the styles of music that made them who they are today: Tom Petty, U2, Phil Collins ... the sounds and styles you see and hear in their music and concerts. I'm seeing that same magic here with the strong southern blues influence that comes through in Needtobreathe's own music coming out loud and proud with these songs! Christians today need to realize that music itself is not the enemy, but how it's used. Putting pride, passion and spirit into songs that speak to your soul, regardless of their origin ... just brings back memories of the original "Christian Hits" musicians like Elvis, Johnny Cash, and the like!!
Honestly, your version of "Mojo Workin'" is my FAVOURITE! I've looked up the original and a whole bunch of other ones, but they feel so dead and bored, but you guys are so full of life (and maybe some sass). I WISH you would record your own version of Mojo & Folsom so I could listen to them in my car! :)
I like that there's a camera on Josh too. He's often an obstructed view and even if he wasn't, you need a camera so you can get up close enough to see his fingers flying. Oh, and the way you guys are totally into this set is pretty much the soul-grabbing, foot-stomping goodness every summer needs.
None years ago I went to a show that n2b was a pre headline band. Loved washed by the water and streets of gold. When they did this medley, I was blown away. The newest live from the woods album is amazing.
