Phil Wickham

As mentioned a few weeks ago (see the "Thriving Musicians" entry below), I was blown away by Phil Wickham when I heard him in concert. Well his two CDs that I had ordered had arrived last week (delivered to the Hobsons), and I've been listening to them since the weekend and am still thoroughly enjoying them. As I said after hearing him in concert, he has "some beautifully poetic lyrics (without being cheesy), and ... an incredible vocal range and style".

There are some short samples from his CDs available on the internet, if you're interested: (1) the first, self-titled album; (2) Cannons, his second album. One of my favourites is the title track from Cannons, and Mystery from the first album is great too.
