A few weeks ago, New Life Worship had a night of live recording. Eleven new and original songs. Being part of the choir, we were involved in the evening and I'm pretty sure I spent the whole first half of the time like an excited toddler, taking in all the lights, and sounds, and enthusiastic people. God's presence was heavy and thick and it brought power and joy to the evening.
The night had its glitches, mainly some sort of small electrical fire before its start, which got everyone kicked out of the building and into the cold...where Jamie and I took the above photo. But we only had to start 10 minutes late, and nothing went wrong the rest of the night!
For the next three nights, the choir is overdubbing our parts for the record. How that actually works, well, I'll be finding out soon enough, but it is exciting to be a part of this project and at the very least see small bits of it form from the inside. Last week, we recorded some video of the choir singing songs from a purely choir record recorded last spring through Integrity. The record is released next week with all the written sheet music for a choir to sing. Integrity wanted a dvd of an actual choir singing as a reference.... or however they decided, we ended up doing a music video of sorts....but a lot of us... crammed on risers...good times.
