To simply describe \u003cem\u003eBlood of Kings\u003c\/em\u003e as “epic” is to seriously underestimate the brilliance jam-packed into this album.

I couldn’t be more excited. I feel like I’m 25 again and just beginning my music career. I really put my head down on this album in 2018 and I didn’t have a music team, a band. Little did I know that my counterpart would be the brilliant guitarist of the Neal Morse Band, Eric Gillette. Eric and I along with the contributions of Jim, John and Rey worked really, really hard to put this album together. From the months and months and really years and years of composing, arranging, rearranging and rehearsals to being down with Eric for the weeks that I was working with him and experiencing an amazing partnership and synergy with lightning strike after lightning strike happening day in and day out, to the mix down and finishing process was a lot of hard work, passion, energy, collaboration, sacrifice and time. The day I got the final mix from Eric I sat down and I wept because despite knowing the months and years that went into this project it was like it all magically came together and was like a flash. I knew it took a lot of time but when it was all completed and I heard the final result it had such a grace on it and it was like a flash of God and bam, it was done.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring the tour that supported the release of Sylentiger in 1990\/1991 two young men drove to a live performance from the East Coast to share how the Lord used the album to pull them out of a downward and sinful spiral and back into the Lord. I’ll never forget that. I truly hope and pray that the Lord will do such things with this album. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI suppose when you’ve got music and song ideas stewing \u0026amp; fermenting in you for 3 decades and you finally record an album, it’ll be a whole lot of music. And, it is! “Blood of Kings” is almost 80 minutes of music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe truly hope and pray that this music blows people away, rescues souls, moves their heart and glorifies the Lord. He’s the One that made it all possible! Thank You Lord!
