Sweet Freedom

SWEET FREEDOM (2011)

This was a delightful departure from John’s previous recording experiences. A collection of acoustic renditions of favorite hymns, this project features Doug Tjapkes (piano), Lee Ingersoll (perc, ukulele, vocals), Cal Olson (bass, whistles, tuba, vocals), Dave Mulder (trumpet), and John (guitar, vocal) and a guest feature vocal with Allison Speer. The tracks were recorded as a live ensemble in a church sanctuary, using standard church mics and ProTools on a laptop. Brian Speer recorded the vocals for us in his Nashville studios, and performed magic with the tracks in his mix! This project continues to support the ministry of Humanity for Prisoners. It’s worth checking this organization out online
