Another Album

OK friends. I have been doing some really wonderful collaboration with my friend Lacey Brown. Lacey is an artist and percussionist and we have been working together creating an electronic collaboration. The unofficial word that may or may not be confirmed is that I am releasing a 7 song E.P. in the next month. Other off-the-record non-news is that I am working with Logic and Ableton Live and a midi keyboard to be able to present these songs live in concert as they will appear on the alleged album.

You may or may not choose to listen to the three song clip preview HERE.

More Christmas Songs!



It occurred to me, while I was procrastinating sending my Christmas cards, that I could make a little greeting with the iSight on my MacBook. Anyway, here's some more Christmas presents. Thanks for checking in to RestorationVillage.com!

Listen to "O Holy Night" by Aaron Strumpel and Jacob and Lily.

Listen to "Cold, Cold Day" written and performed by Todd Berger, and his twin girls.

Listen to "What Child is This" performed by me.

Advent Video



Here is a video that Christine Sine put together. She has written and posted different advent resources on her blog, godspace.wordpress.com. Christine and her husband Tom Sine direct Mustard Seed Associates. I (Tracy) did a house concert with them in Seattle back in November and it's wonderful to continue developing our friendship.

Back in 2005, I was helping a small group of people a a Presbyterian fellowship in Longmont, CO discover what it meant to reach out into their community and create a worship gathering loving and relevant to young post-moderns who may or may not profess to be Christian. During Advent I was asked to speak, and the liturgical scripture happened to be out of Isaiah 61. So I spoke about restoration and worship (which is usually what I speak about). I have recently been reflecting even further on this chapter, asking my friends what they think keeps us from being the restorers Christ talks about. Anyway, for an Advent devotion on worship, here's the LINK to the article I posted on worshipexplore.com.

Blessings, Tracy
