"Fortress" by Kurt Scobie AVAILABLE NOW!!!

FROM WWW.KURTSCOBIE.COM
 
It is with great excitement that I am writing you. This is a big day for me!

"Fortress", my new worship EP, is available TODAY! 



You can find "Fortress" on iTunes, Amazon Music, Google Play Music, Spotify, and MANY other digital stores. And if you're "old fashion", you can order a physical (CD) copy at www.kurtscobie.com/fortress.

My hope is that this project will allow for people to experience the peace that comes from God's covering. That, perhaps, this EP will help you discover what it means to "rest in the shadow of the Almighty God".

Please help me out today by, first, downloading the EP and/or ordering a CD. And, second, please share these songs with your friends and family. Tweet about it. Instagram about it. Share it on Facebook. And just spread the word. I really appreciate it!

Finally, if you could leave a review (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) that would be awesome! Reviews help to further spread the music. It only takes a minute and it means a lot!

So, happy new music day! I hope this EP blesses you! Thanks, times a billion, for supporting me and my art.

Cheers!
Kurt

#Gospel Singer LaShun Pace shares with When We Speak!!!

Some people wanted to meet Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and someone else....I however, wanted to meet LaShun Pace (she is a gospel singer from Atlanta).

If you have ever read any of my blogs, you know that I have admired LaShun Pace since I was a child.  Also I blogged about the amazing time I had when I attended her live recording for her Reborn album.

 After all these years of admiring LaShun Pace music, I finally got a chance to meet her and to have her on my show!!! So without continuing on with a lot of talk.....I present to you LaShun Pace on When We Speak!!!!

Interview with (Soul Band) The Endangered

When We Speak is moving to Los Angeles! Yay!
Well, not really, I love the ATL....but I did get a chance to speak with a Los Angeles based band while they were in Atlanta.

The Endangered is a live soul band, and while they were in Atlanta, I was blessed to speak with them on When We Speak.

I am so thankful to them for taking time out of their busy schedule. 

While in town, The Endangered, performed at popular Atlanta venues as:
Moods Music: National Record Store Day
Piedmont Park: Dogwood Festival
Acoustix Jazz Restaurant and Lounge
Vinyl
Acaphe Cafe

What are Back Up Vocals

Sometimes I wonder why you don't see many groups anymore.....I'm not saying that they don't exist because they do! I just wonder why there aren't as many...For example name some groups of the 90s.........(I bet you were able to name at least three!)   

Now, name a group of today!

(Want me to give you more time?)

It seems that everyone is only out for themselves now! I'm not saying that you shouldn't look out for yourself but I think that everyone always wants to be out front (ALONE!)

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that! But what I learned happened with this is: we stopped appreciating the value and harmonies that more than one vocalist can bring! I've seen and meet alot of great solo vocalists but can you name one that can sing harmonies simultaneously? ME NEITHER!!!! So although some people have great voices, their voice is at it's essence's peak when accompanied with other vocals.....That doesn't discredit them in any way!

I said that to say that I believe that's how we got to not understanding and appreciating the value of the background singer. Well I wouldn't say this is true for most "singers" and "artist" because I would hope that they understand the dimensions that great backup vocals can bring to a song or performance. I think is more so, non musical people that I'm referring to....I've heard so many people say stuff like..."She just sings background" or "The should put him in the background cause he can't sing"............ WHEN DID "BACKGROUND" START BEING "WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU NOT THAT GOOD OF A SINGER"?


.......With this in mind, I keep trying to think of how I could do my part to change that perception, so I started thinking about a few people that I've seen singing backup vocals on the regular that I know can "SANG!"....... Then I thought of one person I could talk to......... Crissy Collins!

I had no idea how I would get Crissy Collins to join me on When We Speak. I had never met her, I had only been to her shows and we had been in a few of the same places at the same time. So I just added her name in my prayer journal and went on.

Why did I want to speak with Crissy so badly? Well, she has been singing backup for a long time with artists like Kelly Price and Beyonce. Not only that she sang with B. Chase Williams and Shabach for many years too! Who better to speak with?

TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT....... God opened the door for me to finally meet Crissy one on one, and she accepted the interview!
NOW YOU TELL ME IF YOU STILL THINK THE BACKGROUND IS FOR PEOPLE THAT CAN'T SING!

Gareth Asher Music

Each interview on When We Speak, encourages me, more and more.  Sometimes it's just the thought that the show is growing.  Sometimes its something the artist said.  Sometimes its just the spirit and warmth of the artist. 

I was honored to sit down and speak with Gareth Asher before his show at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA recently.....Do you want to know what blew me away with Gareth?  His vocals!  OMG! Below is a video of Gareth singing but the video doesn't begin to describe how great Gareth sounds in person! 
I remember thinking to myself..."He sounds like a recording!"  I keep looking at his mouth because it sounded as if I was playing a cd........
