VBS and More!

Fun news! It came time again this year to sit down and get a song out for Cornerstone Mesquite Baptist Church in TX.  Every year for the past 3 or 4, I've co-written the VBS theme song with Michelle Lenk.  This year was pirate themed, which was great fun to write and produce.  Michelle wrote the lyrics and emailed them over for me to write and record some music.  I immediately thought of a guy I knew here who plays accordion:

Gage Gleim
(Gage Gleim).  Had a blast bringing him in on it - it was my first go at recording accordion.  Also, for a fun note, you can hear everybody who worked on the project in the gang vocals (ahoy matey) with Darren (drums), Gage, and my wife Kat! They just finished up with VBS there with a successful week.  Here's the finished product.  Keep in mind this is different from my usual stuff - It's for a children's sing along.  Expect some silliness:
