Vol 5, Part 8: Free "Beloved" Acoustic Download

UPDATE: We have surpassed the limit for the amount of .mp3s we were allowed to give away. Thanks to everyone for helping spread the word so fast! Here is a streaming version for those who didn't get to hear it.

We offered this acoustic version of "Beloved" exclusively through our e-mail list yesterday (make sure you're signed up here so you don't miss future opportunities), but we wanted to make sure that those who faithfully visit the web site got a chance to download the song as well.

We have a limited quantity of the song that we're allowed to give away, so grab your .mp3 and then tell anyone you think might also like it to get their copy before it's gone!

 

Vol 5, Part 7: "Hold My Heart" Demo

Here is an early piano/vocal demo of "Hold My Heart" that Mike recorded prior to the version you have all come to know on Over and Underneath. Jordyn, in the A&R department at Provident, says this was one of the demos that let them know Tenth Avenue North could write really special songs. Enjoy!
