Pastor's kid Brandon is a producer and writer with an impressive CV. He has worked with the likes of Stacie Orrico and has also co-written with Scott Krippayne and Carl Cartee. The opening track "Everlasting Song" with its Coldplay style big opening, immediately demonstrates Brandon's songwriting skills with its faith building worshipful lyrics. The Coldplay influence continues throughout the album. "Stones On Bones" shows Brandon relating to his listeners with lyrics on the power of words. The production is very polished, maybe too much so on occasions; a few more rough edges and greater display of passion wouldn't have gone amiss. But in songs like "Maybe It's The Last Day" (co-written with Scott Krippayne) you have a great song, perfectly arranged which cries out to be listened to on headphones Clearly Brandon is top of his profession, and this album is crammed with encouraging songs.

Product Description
Brandon Bee began producing bands in Seattleā€™s growing Christian music scene and travelling to Nashville, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Canada to produce artists including Amber Pacific, Jaime Jamgochian, Lanae Hale and Stacie Orrico.
Well known for his relentless touring as both an artist and worship leader in the Calvary Chapel circuit, Brandon found himself on the main stages at Creation West, the Christian Musician Summit, the Recreate Conference and the Pure Rebellion Youth Conferences in 2010.
Brandon is part of a new generation of worship leaders that has been influenced by the music of Switchfoot, U2 and Coldplay, yet still honours the devotional spirit of the Integrity, Vineyard and Marantha music of decades past.
He deftly blends old and new: vintage drum sounds are juxtaposed with sumptuous modern guitars, pop melodies and lush vocals are fused with indie rock sensibilities. The result is a wonderfully rich and textured sound.
