Always Believe will be released on
September 8 (I know, I know…nothing like letting you know at the last
minute…but I wanted to make sure everything was lined up and going to
happen for sure).
I have never been more excited about a CD,
and the possibilities that come with it’s release. It has taken a
while, but everything has come together in a way for this to truly be a
great situation.
Always Believe will be released through Out
of the Box Records and distributed by Beme Direct. As of Sept. 8, it
will be available at all concerts and at mitchmcvicker.com (which is
being revamped as we speak, and will reflect the themes of Always
Believe very soon) It will be available at major Christian bookstores
(and many not-so-majors…as I would have it no other way) and on all
internet digital music sites (such as itunes, etc) by mid to late
September.
As I said, I am excited. This CD means a ton to me.
I believe in the songs. I believe in their message. I believe in the
music. I believe in the artwork. I believe in the making of the whole
thing. The recording process was a beautiful experience filled with
hard work and creativity. The process of God-making-us was laced
through the whole project.
Always Believe was my first crack
at producing. I co-produced it with my great friend Michael Aukofer. We
decided to record in a small, but stunning, studio in the little rural
Kansas town of Wellington. It was the most creative process I have ever
been a part of.
Always Believe’s first radio single,
“Goodness”, will be released in a couple weeks. You can support the
cause by contacting your local, or favorite, station and requesting the
song. As I have come to find out, and many of you also know, getting a
song played at radio is a huge, steep mountain to climb.
On
a side note…heirchex.com posted Alway’s Believe’s “15 Minutes” on it’s
website a few weeks ago. This makes it available to radio stations in
heirchex’s network to download and play. I am unsure as to how much
this has been happening, but I am grateful for their support. So who
knows? You may hear both “15 Minutes and “Goodness”
On
September 10, I will begin the Always Believe Tour, which will coincide
with the release of the CD. I would love to see any and all of you at a
concert somewhere along the way.
You do what you can, ya know? I am just trying to remain faithful to
what the Lord is doing in me…and keep moving forward. From the start,
my prayer for this record has been that it would be a kingdom success.
That seems like an oxymoron, doesn’t it? But probably only in as much
as it is vastly different from what the world calls successful.
Let
me say it again, I am excited about Always Believe. I can’t wait to
share it with you. We are all in this together. I couldn’t do any of
this apart from your support and your prayers.
Peace of Christ
