100 Artists ... WOW!

Wow ... if this doesn't make you say "wow", I just don't know what to do with you!!

Get this--100 artists (wow!) took time away from their busy schedules to record a song for Haiti. No one got paid (wow!)--the recording studio was free, the musicians donated their time, and all proceeds will go to the American Red Cross and Samaritan's Purse. I'm so excited about the amount of help this will bring to haitian people who need us so badly right now.

Oh yeah, here are a few of the 100 artists: TobyMac, Newsboys, Casting Crowns, Brandon Heath, Francesca Battistelli, Britt Nicole, Chris Sligh & Phil Stacey (ex-Idol guys), Lanae Hale, Manic Drive, Matthew West, Stephanie Smith, Steven Curtis Chapman & the guy who wrote the song and put this together, Michael W. Smith ... and on and on ... (wow!)

I think after you see this behind the scenes video and photos of the recording process, you just might say "wow". Or I really won't know what to do with you!! ;)

Click & enjoy the video! Click and enjoy the photos! (and then say "wow"!)

You in a Needtobreathe Video!

How about it? Wanna be in Needtobreathe's next video? Here's what they're looking for:

There are two types of videos you can submit:

1. Shoot what you deem to be 'something beautiful'. It can be a sunset, a newborn baby, helping someone less fortunate, or even the best burger you've ever had. This one's up to you!
2. Another option is to film a tight shot of just your face, with as little movement as possible, mouthing the words along with the song. If you do this it's important that you do it with the actual song so that we can match up the lyrics in the video.

Feel free to do one or both of these options.

Get creative with it, and we'll use some of your clips as content for our new video! This is your chance to be directly involved in our creative process, so get shooting! Submissions should be only non-copyrighted original footage, less than ONE MINUTE long and need to be submitted before February 2nd.

We almost forgot to mention one point about the 'Something Beautiful' Beautiful Video contest!

You can create videos using both still or moving pictures. For example, you could create a slideshow of photographs, shoot a series of videos or do a combination. Let your imagination run wild.

Don't forget to make sure you upload your video into the "Something Beautiful Contest" category or your submission won't count!

Have fun, and thanks for helping out!

One last thing, make sure you upload your video into the "Something Beautiful Contest" category or your submission won't count!

NEW TobyMac countdown to Tonight!

The new TobyMac album Tonight comes out in two weeks...is that too long to wait?! How about u can get 3 of the songs before the album comes out? Get the scoop straight from TobyMac's myspace blog:

iTunes is doing an exclusive countdown to the new record, with three singles available each week until release day (2.9.10). This means you can get three of the new songs EARLY and then on release day use the "complete my album" feature to buy the rest of the songs. It's that simple! Plus, each week there will also be a new podcast video, free, where TobyMac chats about each song. Here's the release schedule:
1.19 - ShowStopper
1.26 - Get Back Up
2.02 - Funky Jesus Music
CLICK HERE to check it out on iTunes

And if that's not enough, Toby's got guest appearances on the new album from Skillet's John Cooper, Relient K's Matt Thiessen, Israel Houghton and even TruDog! Can u hear the screaming fans?! YEAH!!!!

Band Update: Falling UP

 

I'm giving it away by saying "Awwwww", but this is the latest band update from Falling Up. Sad ... and a little bit funny.

 

 

I have gotten quite a bit of email in the last six months of questions regarding the future of Falling Up. And rightly so, for we have been extremely seldom with our updates and news. So I figured I owe it to all of you, and myself, to clear things up.

After touring extensively since we were 19 and 20 year olds, the lot of us have diverged into other areas in our lives and drifted away from the group known as Falling Up. In other, more simpler words, we are taking a permanent break. I hate using the word "breaking up" cause that always reminds me of my high school prom night! ( kidding ). Actually, if I can remember correctly, my prom date was a rad girl and I had a lot of fun getting down on the dance floor to "Baby's Got Back" and slow dancing to the Armageddon theme song "Don't Wan't to Miss a Thing". Sorry, I'm getting off track.

It's been a good journey and thank you so much for your continued support throughout the years. We look forward to all of you finding us in our other projects and aspirations in life. Love all of you and God Bless. -Jessy Ribordy

P.S. If you are in New Zealand next week, come check us out at our last show. Parachute 2010 Baby, the best place to celebrate!!!.
