Third Sunday Band Welcomes You!              Darkness on the Run         Our 3rd CD is Now Available!     (listen to samples and buy a copy or three here) The title reflects a recurring theme in the music -- shining some light through the darkness that can sometimes fill our world.  Darkness On The Run features 13 original songs from the Third Sunday Band.   Guitarists Al Todd and Norm Mayfield wrote many of the songs during a week-long (and hurricane filled) spiritual retreat on North Carolina's Outer Banks. The opening song, Rise Up, captures the feel of an Outer Banks sunrise, where the song was written to celebrate God's awesome power. There are several inspirational ballads that contemplate our faith including Prayer For A Wandering Soul, Grant Them Peace, and Bring It All To Me. Al and Norm teamed up with lyricist John Sutton to create folk-rock celebrations like Let It Go and Good Things Happen. Lead singer Emilie Stafford delivers a soulful Angel By My Side and a laid-back beach house meditation with There's A Wind. Some songs arise from our searching for meaning in the events of the day. Both the jazzy Prayer For Peace with Jeanne Burton on lead vocals and the blues rocker Keep Your Eye On Me were inspired by the sad state of the world on the 5th anniversary of 9/11. Throw in a taste of bluegrass, calypso, and a little gospel and you have the eclectic sound of the Third Sunday band. You can hear samples of each song and purchase the CD at CDBaby.com by clicking here.  iTunes and other on-line music services will be offering it soon.
