Jamie Soles
I've known of Jamie Soles for years, and have listened to snippets of his music here and there, but it wasn't 'til recently that I actually purchased any. I came across this video of Jamie, his wife (whose name is Valerie and who therefore must be a simply marvelous person) and half of their eight offspring singing his arrangement of Psalm 133 ("Running Down"). It moved me to tears. I went shopping and ordered all of Jamie's CDs from these folks. The kids' stuff is fun, but I may pass that on to younger friends. "Ascending" is my favorite of the grown-ups' CDs, and "Running Down" is still making me cry. So if you're interested in getting to know Jamie's work, I'd recommend starting there. It'd make great on-the-way-to-church listening, as it's based on the Psalms of ascent, which were sung by worshipers on the way to the temple. You can even download "Ascending" from iTunes if you like (and it's cheaper there). And someday I might keep a 5-year-old promise to record this song for Jamie!
