The Bifrost Arts conference, The Cry Of The Poor: A Conference About Worship, Community, & Mercy, is coming up in April in Philadelphia. To get your attention (and this should do it) they are giving away their excellent worship album, Come O Spirit. IT ENDS TODAY. Please grab it while you can. I think you'll love it. I do. And consider going to the conference. Early registration discounts end this week!
Explosions in the Sky's new album, Take Care, Take Care, Take Care, releases next Tuesday but is streaming free on their website right now. (Thanks to Tyler Braun.)
Last year I fell in love with Delta Spirit (& other bands) for one reason alone: Daytrotter's Barnstormer tour. This year there are 5 stops on the Daytrotter Barnstormer IV Tour from April 26-30. Two are in Illinois, with other stops in Minnesota, Michigan, & Iowa. Bands include Sondre Lerche, Guards, The Romany Rye, Keegan Dewitt, and Hellogoodbye, though the line-up isn't exactly the same at each location.
Every stop has at least four bands and each stop is only $15. Can't recommend this enough. Unique concerts for up and coming bands.
