The Next JMB Album
Just a quick update on things in the JMB world…. once some of this stuff gets ironed out, I’ll post a more detailed update on the actual JMB website. We’ve started planning the next JMB studio album, and we’re scheduled to start recording in late February. We’re still a little unsure of how it’s all going to pan out, but here’s what we’ve got so far…
We’re planning on re-recording some of the songs from the first Josh Martin Band album. Neither Doug nor myself were on that album. Kelly and my recording abilities have grown since that time. So, we’re thinking it’d be nice to get better recordings of some of those songs. These songs may be put on their own CD, or if there’s room, added to the back end of the new CD. Or, we may just end up putting them on the website for people to download - who knows? Here’s the possible list:
- Talkin’ ‘Bout Grace
- Drive
- One True Healer
- The Quick and The Dead
- One Way
Another older song that we’ve never done a studio recording of is “I Ain’t the Next Billy Graham.” It is also being discussed as a possibility. We’ve also talked about recording some of our “cover” songs, including:
- Tis So Sweet to Trust In Jesus
- Come Thou Fount
- Grace Like Rain
- In Christ Alone
Once we get past these songs, we’ll also be recording several new songs. Some of these have already been played, and some of these, the band has yet to even hear. Here’s the list of new songs:
- Christ Is Our Life
- Clumsy Believer
- Good Enough
- Exposed
- Thanks Be To Jesus
- Remind Me
- Here I Stand
- Never Alone
So far, we have a total of 18 songs that are possibilities to be recorded. This list may shrink or grow as we get a little further into the process. I’m looking forward to it, as always!
