Notes & Scribbles

February 7, 2012 by brianmichaelsteck Leave a Comment

Notes & Scribbles Album CoverWhen I was about 19, I recorded some songs on a little Tascam recorder I borrowed from my buddy. I really enjoyed writing, even though my insecurities (and reality) told me that this wasn’t going to be my long-term gig. Lately, I’ve been thinking that I’d love to share songs from time to time by posting them here. Here’s the downloads from “Notes & Scribbles” (2004). Don’t get your hopes up:

  1. Acoustic Contemplations
  2. Bury The Hatchet
  3. Dont Wake Me
  4. Reali-tee
  5. Psalm 27 – One Thing I Ask
  6. We Are The Blessed
  7. December Air
  8. Finisher Of Our Faith
  9. Wild Laughter

Music worth listening to

October 31, 2011 by brianmichaelsteck Leave a Comment

These artists make amazing music. They also walk with Jesus. Their thoughts, struggles and passions come out through their music. As a musician myself, I understand the difficulty of being catalogued alongside typical “Christian” mainstream music. The average radio station will murder a song and turn it into something despised and abused in the matter of weeks. So, I don’t wish these guys get “found” in the sense of radio-play, but absolutely believe they deserve credit and appreciation for their incredible indie/alternative musicianship and dedication to the Gospel.

Sufjan Stevens – www.sufjan.com
Timmy Curran – www.timmycurran.net
Zach Williams – www.zachwilliams.com
The Civil Wars – www.thecivilwars.com
Eisley – www.eisley.com
Over the Rhine – www.overtherhine.com
Gungor* – www.gungormusic.com

There are actually many more amazing artists, many of which are available for free download on Noisetrade.com.

*Gungor recently was featured on K-Love, a Christian radio station in Chicago. Their song “Beautiful Things” will most likely be exploited and will overshadow their other incredible songs. If you can look past the faults of the radio-station community, you’ll love their music.
