Wow! This last week last been a roller coaster for me. I've been at a real estate event in Alabama. Now, when you go to a real estate conference, you usually learn about real estate. Usually. But music follows me. Almost everywhere:So while I was there I met member from each Lost In City Lights and The Morgan Branch, and Christian musician Rachel Rizzuti's father. Super crazy how God worked it all out. Anyway, I'm going try and get some music from all three for you to enjoy.

Song Combat Results: Tie?!?
2008-04-08 00:50:00
I've got some bad news for you. No one won the Song Combat this time. But, hey, no one lost either! :) Thus, I'd decided to give you both the link to The Famine as well as the link to Fee. Alas, when I went get the link to The Famine, I discovered that they'd removed the song since last saw the page. You can still listen to the song, but you can't download it. Major disappointment.However, I did go ahead and find another hardcore alternative to The Famine. There's a band called Beloved (you may have heard of them) who has two songs available for free on their Purevolume. The songs, "Aimless Endeavor" and "Death to Traitors" aren't exactly the same style, but it's the best I could do short notice.-Fee "Burn For You" on WorshipMusic.com--The Famine "Fading Glory" on Purevolume--Beloved on Purevolume- Bonus Downloads: Alli Rogers - Closer to the Moon Flyleaf - I'm So Sick Aaron Sprinkle - Really Something

Why Firefox is the Official Browser of The Free Christian Music Blog
2008-04-03 21:03:00
When I was checking my stats on StatCounter the other day, I noticed that the majority of people who visited this site use Internet Explorer. In my experience, Internet Explorer is next then worthless, so I decided to get you to switch. :)The following is a few reasons why I decided to announce Mozilla Firefox as the official web browser of The Free Christian Music Blog, and why you should switch from Internet Explorer:(I did go ahead a put a link to Firefox in the sidebar to the right, so if you want to try it out you can.)Reason 1: It's safe. According to my sources, logging online these days is like lowering yourself in a fish tank full of sharks. If you use Internet Explorer, it's like jumping in while wearing a bathing suit. That's a bad idea. Comparatively, Firefox is like a shark cage.Reason 2: It's fast. Compared to Internet Explorer, Firefox is a cheetah. While in my experience it's not as fast as Opera, it can out-pace IE like a Ford Mustang. Vrrooom!Reason...

I've got free music today from the independent band Take No Glory. They have posted two entire CDs that you can download on their website.

Free Switchfoot Bootlegs
2008-03-30 14:07:00
Last year, a band called Switchfoot released a CD called Oh! Gravity. You may have heard of it. When the CD came out, Switchfoot went on the Oh! Gravity tour to promote the CD. While they were on tour, they recorded every show and sold the live bootlegs to every single performance after the show. Later, on the Switchfoot website, this band called Switchfoot gave fans the right to freely share the bootlegs they bought.Overnight, Switchfoot Bootlegs was born.Basically, Switchfoot Bootlegs asked every fan to upload their bootlegs so any and all Switchfoot fans can enjoy the live shows wherever they are. The sheer amount of music blows me away. It is a Switchfoot fan's dream land.

Easter Sunday: He's Alive!

Thanks to a suggestion from a reader, today's free downloads are courtesy of Don Francisco. Don has 12 different full CDs available for free download on his website. That's 137 songs! I think that's some kind of record. All of the songs are by either Don Francisco, his wife Wendy Francisco, and their daughter Annie Brooks.You are free to download all of the songs, with a free-will gift if for the music if you choose to do so.In addition to that, Don also writes that if you want to burn a CD of his music to give to a friend you're free to do so. The only requirement is to write the URL of his site on the disk.Now, the reason I choose Don Francisco for Easter Sunday as opposed to someone else is because of He's Alive - Collection Vol I, the title track for that collection is a song called "He's Alive". It's Don Francisco's most famous song, and is a nice Easter song. If you only download one song from Don's website, it should be "He's Alive"-Don Francisco's Mp3 Page- ...

The site is CCMSingle s .net.CCMSingles features lists of recent Christian radio singles, a music video database, great artist information, and a three page list of free music downloads. It's very comprehensive, and includes almost every style imaginable.I should warn you though, you're going to see quite a few downloads there that I've featured. That's because I've got a "peace treaty" of sorts with the Stephen, guy who runs the site. He's free to use any downloads I've covered for his site, while I do the same with his list. It's worked quite well so far, and combined, we've managed to keep a steady stream of music into fans ears.Anyway, check the site out.

Last week I had the opportunity to interview Christian artist Belinda Jane . We talked for about an hour on music, life, and her new CD, Heart of God. I've posted the entire interview on MySpace and Free webs, and posted the part pertaining to "Fire Falls" below."One of my favorite songs on the project... To me it's a challenge to those who have not yet given their heart to Jesus Christ. Life is difficult for all of us, Christian or not. So the question that this song asks is 'What will you do?' when there seems to be no answers to your problems or when they're no one to turn to, or even cry to?There is such a simple answer, yet so many people just reject the obvious. I've talked to people who say, 'Why would someone die for me?' 'I'm not sure I can believe that my mistakes can be forgiven.' They just can't seem to see past the flames. There are so many young people today who are hurting. They are alone in this world and the things that provide relief for them are ...
