One year ago we had just finished working with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra for the concert series known as “Classical Gospel”. There was no time to follow up on that during 2010, but we have hopes for more Classical Gospel in the future. Also a year ago we were joined by Simon Jonsson as our new drummer. Andreas wanted to move on to other things, and we were fortunate to be friends with Simon who was willing to give his time and talent to Praise Unit.
Another memeber who has not been part of most Praise Unit things during 2010 is Sara Björlemyr who gave birth to her son Filip in the beginning of the year. We keep Sara and her family in our prayers and hope she will be able to join us again soon!
Last summer was pretty busy for some of us, as we spent the hot season preparing the products that were released in September. The songbook, including easy versions, for “The Mission Field” was released. A singback CD, or Karaoke version if you prefer to call it that, was released so that it’s now possible to perform, alone or with your friends, backed up by the Praise Unit musicians.
We have only good memories from the concerts we did in 2010. There were Praise Unit concerts in different parts of Scandinavia , and of course the tour in Germany a few months ago. One thing we love about our concerts is that the audience always challenges us to try and do our own songs in new ways. It’s fun and fresh! We also made a lot of new friends and we hope hope to meet again soon!
After the release of “The Mission Field” CD last year we have not blogged so much, until we started preparing for “The Mission Field Tour” in October. In the beginning of 2011 there will not be so much blogging again. But as we come closer to more concerts or other projects we will keep you updated here. More clips, pics and messages from all Praise Unit members.
God kept us during 2010, and we already know that He is preparing some new exciting things for us in 2011. We will anounce the news pretty soon, and we hope you will be as thrilled as we are!
