I Just Became A Sailor
27 comments

So here’s the deal,
I’ve spent the last four weeks of my life in a studio in east Nashville. Some wonderful people ad I have been investing and immersing ourselves wholly and heartily into twelve songs that will soon comprise my second record that is tentatively named “Cannons”. It’s been quite a rewarding process. One which I am sure I will expound on in a later blog. But for now I will leave you with a photo. I wanted to clear my mind one day of all the sounds and songs, so I took a little trip on a boat.

I’ve always liked boats.

    Sounds different. Sounds great. Keep serving Him whole heartedly.

    Oh, Nashville… How I miss you.

    I’m sure “Cannons” will be an amazing album. I definitely look forward to hearing it!

    And the picture is sweet. Christian Rios seems to be a killer photographer from looking at his MySpace. I almost like it as much as Jeremy Cowart’s stuff.

    God really speaks to me through your music. I appreciate you posting those chords on your myspace, I totally copied that song Divine Romance. God bless you in all you do for Him.

  18. Paige

    Hey Phil! I’ve been a fan ever since I listened to your first album, and I can’t wait until the next one comes out. You’re an amazing lyricist.

  19. Rich Jacobson

    Well, if you’re ever in the Seattle WA area, please do stop by. We’ll give you a ride in OUR boat. Maybe even take you out crabbin’..our summers are amazing here!

  20. Jessica

    Can not wait for the new cd. I listen to your old one so much my parents who do not even listen to Christian music know the words to some of your songs. The Lord has blessed you and your music ministry. Well God Bless and Take Care
    p.s I cant wait to see you at the Harvest Crusades what an amazing time that will be.

    Loooove your self-debut album!!! I can’t wait till this upcoming one :) I really love the song entitled “True Love”. I saw a MySpace video of you performing “True Love” on Creation Fest 2007.
