I´m back home after one week of work at a camp for people with autism. I´ve had a great week and I always feel very blessed after these camps. I learn a lot from hanging out with those people that looks like me in many ways but that also are very different from myself. And after one week without a computer and internet it feels good to enter this blog and see what my friends in Praise Unit´s been up to. The recording is obviously continuing acording to plan. Exept working with the album we are trying to schedule for conserts this summer. We have many invataitions and now it´s just the matter of making sure we have singers and a band that´s available these dates. If you want Praise Unit to visit your city, don´t hesitate to contact us.

About Praise Unit
- Praise Unit
- Founded 2004 by Joakim Arenius who just left his position as director of Europe's oldest gospel choir, Joybells. The singers and musicians are united by the vision to spread the word about a loving and living God through music that is rooted in the old african american gospel music, but performed and inspired by the modern r'n'b you hear on radio, the funky grooves you nod your head to when you turn up your car stereo, the beautiful melodies you enjoy on a comforting CD and the wild beats you dance to in the urban clubs. The first CD "Whole" was released in 2006. In 2008 came the Live DVD "the Whole tour" which was filmed by German television during Praise Units touring in 2008. In June 2009 Praise Unit will release "the Mission Field". MUSICAL DIRECTOR: Joakim Arenius BAND: Tobias Grenholm (bass) Kristian Kraftling (keys) Filip Stenlund (guitar) Kristoffer Sjöberg (percussion) Simon Jonsson (drums) VOCALS: Jacob Alm Sara Björlemyr Felicia Brandström Maria Höglund Josefine Bäckrud Emilia Havsed Lina Häger Johannes Häger Julia Nilsson Jakob Wiborg
