How To Kill And Be Killed
''How to Kill and Be Killed'' (2005) is a live concert DVD from singer-songwriter Derek Webb. The full-band show was recorded at the Nashville performance space Rocketown, at the release party for his second solo studio album, '' I See Things Upside Down''. Title The title, "How to Kill and Be Killed," comes from a line in Webb's song "Lover Part 2": ' Webb remarked on the theme and meaning behind the phrase, "I've found that often success looks more like failure, riches more like poverty and real life often feels more like death. The Christian life is very literally the process by which we are killed." Special features The special features on the DVD include a photo gallery of the concert, and an extended multi-part interview with Webb. Much of what he says foreshadows the message of his follow-up album, 2005's ''Mockingbird'', addressing topics such as politics and religion, the nature of Christian art, and the role the artist plays in society.

I See Things Upside Down
''I See Things Upside Down'' (2004) is the second solo studio album from singer-songwriter Derek Webb. It was recorded at The Smoakstack recording studio in Nashville, Tennessee and engineered by Justin Loucks. This album branches out musically from what Webb had done in the past, and Webb has stated that he wanted to "dismantle everyone's idea of what kind of music they could expect" from him. Referencing the paradoxes provided in Christ's teachings, ''I See Things Upside Down'' investigates the idea that perhaps, contrary to our religious and social standards, failure equals success, poverty equals riches, weakness equals strength, and foolishness equals understanding. “What are the things that we American Christians value in our culture and how is that different and often ‘upside down’ from true Kingdom values? I’ve found that often success looks more like failure, riches more like poverty, and that real life often feels more like death,” Webb said in a press release. ...

The House Show
''The House Show'' (2004) is a live album from singer-songwriter Derek Webb from his House Show tour, following the release of his first solo album, '' She Must and Shall Go Free''. Background To provide further interaction with listeners, Webb embarked on the House Show Tour, in which he literally played his concerts in people's houses. That interaction can be heard clearly on ''The House Show'', as nearly every other track is simply Webb speaking about the meaning behind his songs. As Webb commented in the album liner notes, "For better or for worse, he Must and Shall Go Freewasn't an album best suited to big stage production. The songs are more simple than showy, and they have sparked discussion in some unlikely places...Since March 2003, I have played hundreds of these concerts or 'HOUSE SHOWS' – fifty or so people in someone's living room. Just songs and conversations with no production, no press."Derek Webb, "The House Show" (liner notes) INO Records, 2004 Track listin ...

She Must And Shall Go Free
''She Must and Shall Go Free'' is the first solo studio album by the singer-songwriter Derek Webb following his 2003 departure from Caedmon's Call. Named for the last line of a 175-year-old hymn written by William Gadsby, according to Webb, the album "is an emphatic statement about the liberation and ultimate security of the people of God -- the church." A result of Webb's questioning his role in the "church" and its role in culture, it is a poignant and challenging look at what it means to pursue faith in today's church-laden culture. Background After touring with Caedmon's Call for ten years, Webb's first solo record was an effort to ask and answer questions about the church, one's role in it and its role in culture. He further elaborated, "After ten years in a Christian band, backstage in the music industry and in the hallways of church buildings across America, my attention as a songwriter has turned to a fresh affection for the Church. It seems we know all too little of who She ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sing Alleluia
Singing is the act of creating musical sounds with the voice. A person who sings is called a singer, artist or vocalist (in jazz and/or popular music). Singers perform music (arias, recitatives, songs, etc.) that can be sung with or without accompaniment by musical instruments. Singing is often done in an ensemble of musicians, such as a choir. Singers may perform as soloists or accompanied by anything from a single instrument (as in art song or some jazz styles) up to a symphony orchestra or big band. Different singing styles include art music such as opera and Chinese opera, Indian music, Japanese music, and religious music styles such as gospel, traditional music styles, world music, jazz, blues, ghazal, and popular music styles such as pop, rock, and electronic dance music. Singing can be formal or informal, arranged, or improvised. It may be done as a form of religious devotion, as a hobby, as a source of pleasure, comfort, or ritual as part of music education or as ...

Songs Of Worship And Praise
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...
