We recieved a last minute invitation to join our own Katy Seale in performing at Camp Marymount outside Fairview, TN this coming Saturday. Katy will be doing a set of her fantastic solo material then
X-ALT! will join her on stage to rock out the night with our own particular style of Rockin' Rhythm and Praise. We love to play whenever and wherever folks want us whether it's at camp, church, a coffee house or anywhere else.
It looks like after delays due to health and scheduling we will finally be recording the new CD starting in late June at Studio 23. At the helm will be our producer and sometime band mate Bryan Cumming. We are looking at a whopping 16 cuts that will feature X-ALT! and some special guests who will be named later. So keep checking in and hopefully come late July we will announce the name of the project as well as availability. From all indications this is going to be a diverse collection of songs highlighting the Best of what X-ALT! has to offer.
I'll be posting some video from Ashland City UMC in the days to come as well as pictures from Camp Marymount.
More soon,

What A Great Night
X-ALT! was back, with the help of a couple of friends, last night in Ashland City. We were invited to perform at a regional meeting of United Methodist laity that was being held at Ashland City UMC. Our friends Bryan Cumming and Bob Schultz filled in for Mark Pierce and Eddie Loper (respectively) and did just a wonderful job. Hopefully I'll have some video and pictures from the event up in a few days but until then here is what some of the band members had to say.
FROM MARK MILLS:
Wow. What a time we had last night! It was so great being back with everyone, and worshiping God together again! I've got to say, everything clicked last night, and as Turner Potts said, "God was in the house". The old songs sounded solid as ever, and the new songs just rocked! More than that, though, both we and the congregation WORSHIPED. In spite of all Satan has thrown our way lately, God is not thru using us yet.
FROM SUSIE REEL:
I have to say that tops the list as one of my favorite places we ever performed!
Can I just say that I could not have been prouder of the group of people that were on that stage last night? And one of the cutest things that happened was when we started into our set after Down To The River, something was mentioned about we might be loud...and the older gentleman on the second row took out his hearing aids...too funny! WOW I so love our gigs...lol
FROM TOM LANDERS:
I had chills, especially during the song Vince, Mark and Lucy wrote. My
goodness, what a beautiful song!
More Later,

It's been A While
Things have been kind of slow lately (not really) but it looks like things are picking up!
First off GREAT NEWS: after a series of problems from his cancer surgery I'm glad to report that Mark Mills is on the mend and ready to start playing again. This is something we have all been praying for and as usual prayer works! Mark will make his return appearance with us at a private function at Ashland City UMC on Tuesday April 15th! Also sitting in with us that night will be our old buddy Bryan Cumming and a new friend, drummer Bob Schultz.
X-ALT! has been continuing our monthly services at New Beginnings Church and another New Beginnings Coffee House is in the plans - more on that later.
For now thanks for all your support and prayers and keep an ear out for the new
X-ALT! CD hopefully before summer.
