ALBUMS

STONE-BLIND

Aren’t we all blinded? Through love, fear, resentment, circumstances, politics, social developments? Eleven songs with blues, rock and folk influences, exploring today’s society. With all its beautiful but also dark sides. Loss, broken hearts, death and destruction. But also a nice walk, love and sometimes… a feeling of joy and happiness.

Day By Day
– Free Gospel Album (EP)

Released on September 17, 2018 the album “Day By Day” contains six strong, classic, spiritual songs (hymns) in a more modern setting: instead of organs and choirs, you will hear a band using Drums, Bass, Guitars and Harp. Because of this, the album has more or less a “country-folk” feel to it. But, of course we do try to keep close to the original and if you know the songs, you will propably have no problem to sing along!

The title track, Day By Day, was written in 1865. Most of the tracks, except for one original song, date back at least 100 years and have been popular for many decades in congregations all over the world.

We hope to add more tracks to this album in the (near) future.

Read more about this project.

  1. Day By Day
  2. What A Friend We Have in Jesus
  3. Just A Closer Walk With Thee
  4. Crown Him With Many Crowns
  5. Take Me Home
  6. I’ll Fly Away

The Album (EP) is available as a free download at BandCamp, AudioMack and SoundCloud.

“Rudy has all the chops and lyrical talent to tell a compelling story. Down For The Count, his full-length record, has no less than eight of these — and most of them have something to do with a woman. He Stopped Loving Her Today is the broken-hearted man’s musical manifesto, and the bluesy/country goods don’t stop here” – Drooble.
