Martin Luther once said that we must beat the gospel into people’s heads incessantly, for it’s the one thing that we are most prone to forget. Funny, because that’s a huge reason why we wrote most of the songs on our last record, Over and Underneath. Not that we wanted to beat people up, necessarily, but our hope was definitely what Luther spoke of, in that, we wanted those who heard our songs to hear the gospel, that is, that we don’t earn grace, grace was earned for us. And we wanted to beat it into the heads of those listening, starting with our own. That’s what the title was all about: Over and Underneath. At the heights of our purity, Christ has gone higher; at the depths of our depravity, Christ has gone lower, bearing our sins on the cross. No matter how pure we are, we need Him still, and no matter how far we’ve fallen, we’re not too far gone.
This is what we feel the gospel is, and it’s what we hope to continue to communicate with our sophomore release, The Light Meets The Dark. Our desire for this record is simply to be the next step. It’s a call not only to believe the gospel but to let it so saturate our minds and hearts that we actually begin to live like we believe it. But of course, that might be a little different than you think. This record isn’t a call for better living and high achieving, more commitments and greater successes. It’s a cry for confession, exposure, and the laying down of our pride. It’s a cry for honesty, for truth, and for an encounter with the One who is truth, and having that encounter change the way we see the world. You see, when we believe this thing we call the gospel, it allows us to be honest about who we really are. Or should I say, it forces us to come to terms with who we are. It frees us to not only be exposed but to be ok about being exposed; to speak our pain and fears out into the open. It frees us to be poor in spirit. Which, isn’t that the goal after all?
I heard it said once that the best thing that could ever happen to any of us is if all of our sins were broadcast on the five o’clock news. And yeah, that can be a fairly disturbing thought, I suppose, but think about it for a moment. Think of how scary that is, and yet somehow, so incredibly freeing, too. If everyone knew all your junk, all your fears, all your questions, you wouldn’t have to hide anymore. No more masks. No more pretending. Just you, and hopefully, the grace that comes when we step into the light. Sure, it can be the most terrifying step you’ll ever have to take, but when we do, when we lay our souls out naked and bare for all to see, it forces us out of the shadows and into a place where life begins. It’s where the light meets the dark, and it’s where we want to be. Hope to meet you there. -Mike Donehey
Hello |
May 31 |
Hey everyone out there.
We’re done with the bulk of recording the new record, unfortunately it won’t be released until early 2010 (such a futuristic looking date). Anyway, we’re super excited. In fact, we’re elated. It’s been such a blessing to feel so good about a project. The boys and I have been so encouraged by this whole experience. I hope that God uses this new record in the same (or more!) than the last, but in a different way. Over and Underneath connected with everyone at such an epicenter of the soul, and this new one may very well do the same thing but in a different place of the heart.
It’s a funny thing this blog. Now I know i’m one for flights of fancy and daydreaming, but this blog sounds like a sci-fi novel. 2010…an omnipresent being employing and working in a unique way; an art piece moving and reaching into people and being used by the omnipresent being. Crazyiness. I like it.
Today we went whitewater rafting. It was such a wonderful experience. Our guide recited poetry he had written. He also said he grew up in church but “not so much” anymore. He’s out in mother nature and that it was the “first book ever written.” Not sure what that means still. I recommend this lightly colored rafting. Like Indiana Jones and a roller coaster wrapped in one…except there’s no theme music or white-gloved mouse.
It’s 11:21pm and it’s about lights out for me. I’m going coo coo. I bid you all pleasent dreams.

Well everyone I must say that the last month has been pretty encouraging when it comes to creating new music. I can honestly say that this record we are currently working on makes me even more excited than the first. I don’t want to reveal too much about it but let me just say two words… “more djeridoo.”
Things are going well in the house of Jamison. Riley has taken her first steps and in a month will be 1 yr old. Crazy. I have celebrated the day of my birth and now am at a ripe old age of 28. Melissa and I have continued to live the nomadic style of life and have temporarily moved to DE. Life is good.
I don’t have anything terribly important to share with you, but I wanted to say hello. Thanks for taking your time to read my rambling mess of a blog.

Well folks, as promised, here’s an update from the studio. Well, sort of. From outside the studio. We had a visitor, and he needed help, and Tenth Ave isn’t one to turn down the cries and pleas of an innocent and defenseless victim of the rough life of suburbia. This was no small duty, but we were willing to head the call. Watch the clip below.
New record.... |

Two days deep into recording our new record.
Now i know that the Dove awards just happened and we’re still so pumped about it, and “Hold My Heart” is being added to radio stations across the country, but as musicians I know we’re pretty excited about crafting our next record.
We’re off to a great start, and we couldn’t be more excited about whats in store and what God has given to us. May we be most excited for the work that Christ is doing through our music.
A quick catch-me-up in the past few months:
The Rock and Worship Roadshow was a complete success. Thank you to EVERYONE who came. Wow. What an adventure. We met so many wonderful new friends and there was just so much support from everyone who attended and the bands and crew we traveled with. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
We won “Best New Artist” at the Dove awards. Thank you for everyone who took time to vote for us, and for believing in us. What an honor.
Now the following is strictly for pure documentation purposes and to see just how crazy it all looks when it’s actually written down. It’s out of left field and has nothing to do with the aforementioned events.
On Feb 22nd-Mike developed a sickness in Florida with a cough, flem and ache. Jason’s wife Melissa came out to Islamorada with us with bronchitis, but it wasn’t too bad. We think Mike’s sickness and Melissa’s weren’t related.
12 hours in a van to Hilton Head, SC with Mike and Melissa coughing, Jason and Melissa’s 5 month old baby Riley began coughing and snotting at the nose. Later that night after load in, myself (Jeff) had pain swallowing.
The next morning, Scott and Jeff developed the snot and cough with an ache and Jason wasn’t feeling too good either. We realize that Gizmo the band dog has an ear infection and is irritable.
Three days later baby Riley has crazy snot and is coughing like a champ. Scott and Jeff are in shambles, and Mike and Melissa are only slowly recovering. We play two shows in Jacksonville, drive down to play in Delray, then back up to Jacksonville in 24 hrs.
We go to Georgia, a week goes by, everyone slowly recovers.
Next week, Mike’s wife Kelly comes back out with a gnarly cough all the way to South Dakota. The cough continues as we start our tour for two days then my wife Heather catches the cough and they make a pit stop for a few days to recover in Idaho with a friend.
We get the girls then continue to Oregon. Kelly flies home to recover. Two days later I wake up in the middle of the night puking my guts out. We go to Disneyland. I did not have a good time. By the end of the night I recover.
Two days later in the van on the way to Las Vegas we awaken to Scott hurling in the back seat of the van. Same illness that I had, 2 or 3 pukes with a bad ache then a quick recovery by the next morning.
Two days later Mike wakes up ralphing. Same thing. Sick all day then fine in the morning.
Two days later Kelly wakes up vomiting. Same thing.
One day later- Jason.
One week later- Tim.
We’ve since recovered and everyone is fine. Gizmo’s ear is healthy and everyone has a stronger immune system since the “Great sickness of ‘09.”
Don’t take long trips in a van with other people.
