ABOUT US! We began in early 2006 not really knowing what to expect. As time went on, God sort of kept pushing things into place to show us that we should keep doing this. In music, bands come and go every single day, and hopefully, you'll remember one or two. We hope that as you listen to our music, whether it's on here, your cd or MP3 player, or at a show, we hope that you will remember us, but more, if not most importantly, remember why. Why we do this. Why we are blessed to record, tour, and play music in general. It is by the grace of God, the saving grace that has kept us alive and well.
It's what keep this band going. We are so blessed to know that you are supporting us. We're just some guys from Ohio that are making music, and we love it. We've shared the stage with a lot of great bands like Fireflight, Kris Roe of The Ataris, House Of Heroes, John Reuben, Everyday Sunday, The Wedding, and many more. We've also toured nationally w/ Eleventyseven, Manic Drive, Hello Kelly, and Me In Motion. So please, come and see us at a show. Come talk to us. Keep listening to the music. But please, remember, we do this, TgT is in existence for one purpose: to share God's true LOVE. Thanks for checking us out!

We are an entirely independent Christian "alternative" band out of the Kansas City metro. As an band we have set up a 501c3 not-for-profit organization titled Reveal Ministries. Our mission is simply this: "to spread the good word of God through music." Over the past year we have done shows locally to help the Bethany House in Lawrence, Kansas, a benefit for Haiti relief efforts, new student orientations at Avila (Christian) University, & Grand Avenue Temple shows to help introduce Christianity to the inner-city homeless.
As a continued effort to spread our message, we have attempted (with limited success) to further expand via the Internet. We are hopeful that your expertise can help us in what is a very crowded marketplace. We're not expecting anything more than an opportunity to be heard by people in the industry.

Artist: Circleslide Song: Looking Up (Light Mix) CD: Echoes Of The Light Genre: chr Label:Save The City Records Homepage
CHR!!
From the disparate backgrounds of south texas, seattle washington, and indiana comes a sound mired in the true americablues, rock and roll, folk, and roots music. Add a blend of british influences and you begin to hear the sound of Circleslide as they catch the attention of even the hardest of fans and critics.
"UnCommon Days" crept on to airwaves allowing the band to open for acts like Casting Crowns, Toby Mac and Mercy Me... winning over crowds with the fury and strength of their live performances. The exhilarating collaboration between Gabe Martinez, (guitar, lead vocals, harmonica) Eric Vickers, (bass, vocals) Jonathan DeAnda (electric guitar, vocals) and Lee Yoder (drums) continued to thrill old and new fans alike at this yearfs Ichthus Festival, Texas Hill Fest, and Rock the Light in Kansas City.
With influences as diverse as early blues pioneers Robert Johnson, to the great hymn writers like Charles Finney, to 80s punk and new wave, the Police, The Alarm and The Clashcand early christian pioneers like Larry Norman, The Choir, and the 77sthey believe there is a mystery and wonder to the sounds and lyrics that inspire themand as they attempt to pay homage and tribute to the pastthere is a strong desire to forge new sonic territorycbanging away on vintage instruments wired through new technology, like a harmonica fed through strange guitar pedals, this is a band with one foot in the past and one placed firmly in some other kind of futureone where the listeners are satisfied to their soul.

AC & CHR!!
Hello Stellar Kart Friends!
OK, so we've been really busy this year. First, we are excited to tell you that we have signed with INO Records! We had a good run with the folks at Word, and left some great relationships, but I can't express enough how happy we are with this new deal and our new friends at INO.
We went into the studio immediately and just finished recording a new album called EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT NOW. We think you're gonna LOVE IT!
Its a very unique album that can only be described as well, Ill let you describe it when you hear it. Hopefully you'll use words like "awesome," "rad," "great," "amazing," "groundbreaking," "not the worst CD Ive heard," etc
Also, we want everyone to know that Cody Pellerin, Stellar Kart guitar player and one of our founding band members decided that it was time for him to step off the road and leave Stellar Kart. We love and miss Cody, but he felt strongly that God was leading him to spend more time at home with his wife. How can you argue with that decision? Good luck, Cody! So it makes sense to introduce you to our new guitar player, Jon Howard. Many of you have seen Jon play with his old band, Dizmas. Jon has jumped right in. We love him and we know you will too. Welcome, Jon!
So dont forget, Something Holy goes for adds NOW! Adam, Jordan, Brian & Jon (Stellar Kart)

"This song showcases two different stories from fans that we've spoken with. The first story is about a little boy named Jack who was born three months premature. Doctors said he had less than one percent chance of living because of how underdeveloped he was. So a friend of mine wanted to minister to this family, and encourage them during this difficult time, so she got all the pictures that they took the day Jack was born and made a slide show for them and used our song 'Wrapped in Your Arms' for the background music. You can actually go on YouTube and find it. They've actually made a new one because now, after a year and a half, a very rough road with many surgeries, baby Jack is thriving."

Artist: Temple Veil Song: Party Song CD: unEARTH Genre: chr Label:Independent Homepage
HOT AC & CHR FORMATS!!
Temple Veil is a tale of two opposites, a duo of individuality functioning in harmony. The journey begins with two characters of vastly different upbringings. DeRock, a Texas native, was raised amid the immense metropolis of Dallas-Fort Worth in the heart of urban culture where "big city", "soul", and "the dirty south" collide. Brysson, on the other hand, grew up on a northern Ohio farm in a rural community consisting of cornfields, a gas station, and the nation's largest Amish population.
The personalities of these two are as unique as their childhoods. DeRock would best be described as man of action. Thriving in group settings, he can always be found where the action is. On the contrary, Brysson, a laid-back individual, is much more likely to be found working in seclusion or engaged in a deep one-on-one conversation. Watching football and movies is a top source of entertainment for DeRock, while Brysson enjoys outdoor activities in the likes of hiking and fishing. Yet they have established a deep rapport.
In addition to their love of fried okra and their matching red briefcases, there is one thing that unites these two individuals above and beyond all differences, something that supersedes all else in their lives. That is their love for God, people, and music; and their passion, purpose, and calling to bring all these together. Though influences of their diverse backgrounds may be inescapable, DeRock and Brysson have deserted their past, leaving everything to unify the immeasurable passion of their hearts.
Among other musical endeavors, DeRock and Brysson have spent the past two years together as members of a hard rock band, performing over 450 dates around the entire North American continent and releasing an international recording. They persistently face many challenges and also many incredible opportunities as they continue with that venture. Offsetting all down time, and pursuing their desire to reach a broad audience, the two have most recently stepped into something on the other end of the musical spectrum.
With all rock and roll personas aside, no glamour or flair, Temple Veil is stripped down, acoustic, raw, and real. Just as the temple veil was torn upon Christ's death in the Bible, granting all men access into the Holy of Holies, DeRock and Brysson have unmasked their own lives, opening themselves to the world through Temple Veil. A recording is in the making. In the meantime, come listen to the music and hear the stories at one of the tour stops, and if you ask politely, there is a small possibility that they may show you the contents of those matching red briefcases...

In her latest album Silent Screams the focus is on encouraging those who are ensnared by depression, anger, loneliness or insecurities to cry out for help from Jesus Christ and from others. As Eowyn explains herself, It breaks my heart to see people hurting. I cant help but cry, because I understand what theyre going through, and I truly know how they can be whole again.
Silent Screams, was produced by Travis Wyrick (P.O.D., Pillar, Disciple). With a style that is filled with industrial rock sound, inspiring vocal imaging and a powerful, dramatic presence, this album is set to make a dominant stand in the market place. Eowyns honest writing style and hypnotic voice were enhanced by the addition of Pillar members who were involved in the writing process as well as playing on the album. Each song also breaks down emotional boundaries and begs the listener to no longer be silent but to cry out for help. Eowyn herself says I hope my audience will be pulled into a deeper more honest relationship with God. Sometimes I think we try to hide from God and others what we are truly feeling, but the truth is, He already knows. The beauty is, He already cares!

HarvestBloom is Anji - lead vocals Patrick - guitars Greg - drums Molly - keys, backing vocals Craig - bass guitar
Bio HarvestBloom, a Christian Rock Band formed in 2007 from Silver Spring, Maryland, follows their self-titled 2009 EP with a new 6-song EP entitled DEVILS POISON (May 2010). After receiving favorable reviews and airplay on Christian Rock Radio with their first EP, HarvestBloom went into the studio in late 2009 to record their second EP with Producer, Tony Correlli (Ashes Remain and Orphan Project) of Deep End Recording Studio in Baltimore, Maryland.
The theme of the second EP, DEVILS POISON is about the struggle within and the choices we make. NATURAL COMPUSLION, the first radio cut from the EP are about how when people are left to their own devices, they tend to make self-destructive choices. The title song of the EP, DEVILS POISON tells the story of Cain and Abel - but from Cains point of view. ANGELS CRYING was written about children that are innocently killed and for those who have their innocence stolen and their choices taken through abuse, slavery or prostitution. MY SWEET JESUS is simply a song about wanting to serve Jesus while UNMISTAKABLE GRACE is about Missions. The final song on the 6 song EP is called BLOOD (THE CREED) is an anthem of praise featuring a choir and guest vocals by Nikki Lerner. Additional notes about the songs can be found on the EP.
HarvestBloom will be releasing the first music video for NATURAL COMPULSION from the EP in late May.
For more information and full reviews, please view their EPK at www.sonicbids.com/harvestbloom.

The Sun is Coming Out has been released for purchase at coryBasil.bandcamp.com. Help Nashville by donating a dollar or more to aid those affected by this disaster. 100% of all proceeds will be given to those in direct need.
Once youve received the track please Tweet, or Facebook, the link to the video and the song so that we can spread the word. Lets see just how far word of mouth can take this song and video how much we are able to raise is up to you! I will show a screen shot at the end of the month displaying the total raised by purchasing this song and will tell you exactly how the money was used, be it $15, $100 or more.
For those of you in Nashville you know as well as I do how badly the word needs spread about our disaster here. Most I have talked to outside of our city have only heard of the depths of our destruction via Twitter and Facebook, this is a shame.
Last week I spent 3 full days in Bellevue helping those who have lost everything try to establish themselves on the road to recovery. We removed all of their belongings from what used to be their home, and now is only a grave and a reminder of everything they once had, we gutted their houses most from floor to ceiling. Removing all carpet, tile, hardwood floors, drywall, door window frames, appliances, and cabinets. Doing as much as we could to keep mold from settling in and causing the house to be condemned.
The looks on the faces of all those who once lived there is something that will stay with me forever. I could feel the pain as it lingered in their eyes. Shock is definitely still a big part of what keeps them from completely losing it I think it will be a while before this really sinks in for all of us.
I stood and listened as people told stories of how a couple in the next house died together because they could not get out. They told their own stories of how they were up to their neck in water and panicking to reach the second floor of their home.
Their reality, their nightmare is not being told. Nashville needs you. Nashville needs hope.
Nashville needs to know, and feel, that the sun is coming out.

Artist: Difference United Song: More Than Ever CD: Dream Again EP Genre: rock/chr Label:Independent Homepage
From Nashville to Romania to India, China and beyond, the sounds of DREAM AGAIN - the energy-packed debut album from Difference United (DU) - are resonating to the far corners of the earth. The groups live shows, radio singles, and TV performances have many wondering: What is it that makes Difference United so different? Its not just the music which is a unique alchemy of Euro-pop stylings blended with an American rock edge and attitude, and then christened with forward-thinking, hope-filled lyrics it begins with the very foundation of the band. In fact, just about everything about Difference United differentiates them from accepted conventions.
Date: January 2005 Location: Galle, Sri Lanka
I was surrounded by chaos, says Aaron, the founder of Difference United. After arriving in Sri Lanka, we had traveled south from the capitol to an area devastated only a week earlier by a massive tsunami that had been triggered by a 9.0 earthquake off the coast of Indonesia. I was shocked as we passed building after building that had been smashed into rubble. It looked like a war zone. We came upon a location where the tsunami had swept a passenger train off its tracks. The tracks themselves had been twisted and mangled into unrecognizable shapes by the power of the water. I later learned that over 3,000 people were killed onboard that train alone. Nearby were refugee camps teeming with people who had lost everything: homes, jobs, family membersall that was of value had simply disappeared. All told, over 30,000 people had perished along the coast of Sri Lanka. I found myself feeling overwhelmed and at a loss for words. I had come hoping to make a difference somehow, but physically there was little I could do to help the people. I didnt know how I could help or what I could say to encourage those who were hurting. How could I possibly understand what they were going through? I wanted to do something. I wanted to encourage the people, to give them hope, but did not know how.
That night, frustrated and unable to sleep, Aaron wrote the song Dream Again on a small keyboard in his hotel room. The trip to Sri Lanka changed Aarons life in a way he never could have imagined. On the flight back to Nashville, he began to form a vision. His desire was to somehow use the universal medium of music to take a message of hope into second and third world countries. That vision led to the formation of Difference United.
Flash forward to northeast India, April of 2007
The roar of the crowd is deafening. 30,000 people are packed into the center of the city. There is electricity in the air as Difference United takes the stage. Over a million people are watching live, via cable, as the band rocks the city as part of the Dream Again tour. That night and over the course of the groups two weeks tour in India over 20,000 people make personal decisions to accept Christ into their lives. For the members of the band, this is what they live for. There is an excitement in the music of DU that crosses international and religious boundaries, bringing people together from all walks of life. This can be heard in the groups current single Raindrops, which has gained radio airplay in places as diverse as Bucharest, Romania and Hyderabad, India.
Each member of DU brings his/her own unique style and personality to the group. With soaring guitar solos, David adds a rock edge to Aarons distinctly European keyboard style. DeAnna shines as she performs the groups pop anthems to audiences of all ages around the world. The groups diverse musical backgrounds/styles combine to create a sound that is distinctly fresh and uplifting in nature. At a recent press conference Aaron was asked what specifically he felt was drawing people to the music of Difference United. Ultimately, I think it goes much deeper than just the music in the sense of entertainment. I truly believe that people are hungry for meaning and purpose. Ultimately I think people are drawn to the message of hope that can be found throughout the music and lyrics of each song.
In a world filled with hopelessness and desperation, Difference United is striving to rally people together towards a greater good through music. Ultimately, Aaron found the voice he was looking for that tragic day in Sri Lanka and now his message and that of Difference United to the world can be summed up in these two words:

GJ, Boston native recording artist, was scheduled to work with some of music industrys biggest artists, managers, and producers when a destined encounter with one of his favorite music producers, Rodney Jerkins, caused him to put his projects on hold. The Christian R&B artist, who's been compared to the likes of Justin Timberlake, NeYo and Michael Jackson, was reminded of the need to be sold out to Christ first before embarking on his many music projects. After 10 years of producing tracks, this decision would prove to be the turning point in GJs young music career.
Focusing on relationship rather than religion, accessible lyrics and dance tracks rather than predictable and monotonous melodies, GJ\'s sound is both ground breaking and refreshing to the gospel music scene. On stage, his passion captivates his audience with every note and every move. It was that buzz around GJ that garnered invitations to perform at local churches, outreach programs as well as some of the major universities in Massachusetts, including UMass Boston, UMass Amherst and Tufts University, to name a few. GJ's inaugural album, The Debut, was released on January 15, 2009.

AC *** FOLK ROCK *** ALTERNATIVE *** COUNTRY *** CHR An amalgam of rock, gospel, roots and folk. Rural but not Country. Lyrically intelligent ... Musically relevant. Looking ahead, while tipping the hat to earlier influences. This music would fit comfortable in the Americana genre, with a little the pop and rock seasoning.
Featuring: Jesse Sprinkle (Poor Old Lu, Dead Poetic) J. Stephen Smith (Every Eye Closed) Chris Landon Charlie Freeman (Mojo Heroes) Rick Millard
Their first full-length release Land of Plenty is available now www.theredemptioncenter.com on Blind Records!
"Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?" 1 Corinthians 15:55
The Boy Who Shed His Skin You know its just a bloody nuisance Said the boy who shed his skin Another lessen to be learned You know we all die in the end
So youd better just get on, then Said a man just half my size Not time to set and cry about it No place for you to run and hide
Cut these ties that hold me down Thats the only way to begin You can drop my weary bones in the ground Said the boy who shed his skin
Well, you know its been quite painful Year to year and week to week He bruises with the slightest touch Even a kiss a upon the cheek
Ive seen him with the Lords and ladies They cant resist his boyish charm And even with his loving mother As she rocked him in her arms
Cut these ties that hold me down Thats the only way to begin You can drop my weary bones in the ground Said the boy who shed his skin
Soon Ill be flying home So far from all the pain that I have known Soon Ill be flying home And now its clear to me the time has come to go
Cut these ties that hold me down Thats the only way to begin You can drop my weary bones in the ground Said the boy who shed his skin
Soon Ill be flying home So far from all the pain that I have known Soon Ill be flying home And now its clear to me the time has come to go
Soon Ill be flying home Said the boy who shed his skin Soon Ill be flying home Said the boy who shed his skin Soon Ill be flying home Said the boy who shed his skin
