Cover Of The Month

Over the last few years it’s been an amazing thing to see how the songs I’ve been writing in my little bedroom have made their way into peoples lives all over the place. Being the occasional YouTube browser that I am, I’ve been able to see evidence of this firsthand. Whether it be a young student in their dorm room, or a Hungarian church congregation it’s always an honor and a blessing to literally see and hear how these songs are touching peoples lives.So I thought, “Hey, I should share some of these awesome videos with my blog friends.” So from now on, we here at philwickham.com, will be posting a “Cover Of The Month” video, or more simply put, videos of you doing Phil Wickham songs.

So grab your guit-fiddle and belt out a tune into that little mic on your video camera, upload it to YouTube, with the the words “Phil Wickham Cover” and the name of the song, and I will find it.Below is the first one, of many. I look forward to hearing and seeing what you guys come up with. Enjoy.

So there it is. Let’s see what else we can come up with.

Me And Jeremy

This is my buddy Jeremy. He sings in an awesome band called The Myriad. They recently were awarded MTV2′s Breakout Band Of The Year. We ate orange chicken together.

Jeremy lives in Redding, where I played a show last night, so I’m glad we were able to meet up. There was also someone at the table who ate two full tablespoons of butter for three dollars and twenty three cents. Gross.

Anyway check out The Myriad. I toured with them last fall and we had an amazing time. Great guys and now great friends.

I Love Forest Playgrounds

I was just flipping through the pictures on my phone and saw these couple photos of me and a buddy Nick at a youth camp outside of Tyler, Texas a few weeks ago. Have I ever mentioned that I love forest playgrounds? And almost as much as I love forest playgrounds, I love tire swings that are often found in said forest playgrounds.

I had a great time at the camp, got to meet a ton of cool people and hope to come back sometime soon. Thanks for having me.
