Kevin Wyglad & Chasing Grace: Home

The other day I had an epiphany. I was hanging out on youtube and watching a bunch of Average White Band videos. At the same time I was remniscing of a show I did in April. I remembered the great response from the audience after I did my song Shout The Name of Jesus. And as I watched the AWB videos, I realized, I need to get back to the that funky stuff. I've written so much for worship in past few years, that my focus on my forte of funk got drowned out with comtemporary Christian music for our Sunday worship. Even though I love that stuff and even love to write songs for worship, I have to get back to the music that comes from my soul....and that's the funky stuff. So, last week, I wrote a song we did in church on Sunday called God Mounts His Throne. It was a Stevie Wonder, Carl Carlton, Chic, kinda vibe. It felt good. So, for my next CD, I've decided to take the stuff I wrote and give it that funky vibe that God puts in my heart. I will still write music for our church worship, but I will not let the funky stuff slip aside again. So, keep your ears and eyes open on the progress of that.

I am honored to say that I will be producing some great projects this spring and summer. Andrienne Reynolds is a fantastic vocalist in the Atlanta area with whom I've performed with in a couple of "corporate" dance bands. We are still in the dugout discussing strategies for the game plan regarding her new CD. My good friend Graham Kuhn has asked me to produce his second solo record. This project is also in the coaches room, discussing the game plans. Graham will be doing a solo concert in the Summer which means this recording project needs to be done by then. My third and fourth projects are recording of some my material. Our band Chasing Grace will do one project, and I'll do another with my good friend Scott Lavelle in his studio. Please keep your ears and eyes open for more details regarding these projects.

I am blessed to be surrounded by such great people and musicians/singers at St. Ann's Catholic Church in Marietta, GA. I am honored to have the title of Music Director. This April, our entire music ministry will perform a great variety of music - the children's choir, the adult choir, the spanish choir, our contemporary groups, the Chasing Grace band, and solo performances by other talented music ministers. We'll include our new technology using video and cameras. It will be a night that all will remember. Check the calendar on this website for more details.
