MercyMe & The Generous Mr. Lovewell

Being the MD (Music Director) for a radio station has it's perks. One of which is meeting up with artists when they swing into the area!

Last week I had the opportunity to spend a little time with Mike & Robby from MercyMe. Actually...They weren't alone. I also had the pleasure of meeting the featured gentleman of their upcoming album, Mr. Lovewell.

(Mr. Lovewell was busy loving well while we snapped this picture. Oh...I'm on the right.)

Yes...Mr. Lovewell. More appropriately called, "The Generous Mr. Lovewell", which is also the title of MercyMe's upcoming album set to release on May 4th.

Why did I meet up with Mike, Robby, and Mr. Lovewell? Why not?

Okay...Actually, it was because they wanted to introduce Mr. Lovewell to the staff and let us know a little more about their upcoming project. Summed up in a few words...Mr. Lovewell is a super cool dude!

What does "The Generous Mr. Lovewell" stand for? Simply put? Loving each other and loving them well! Again...That's the simplified version. Find out more at MrLovewell.com and even follow Mr. Lovewell on Twitter!

Also...They've now officially, as of today, released their first single off of "The Generous Mr. Lovewell" entitled, "All of Creation".

My thoughts on the song? Here they are:

• Great tune. Definitely MercyMe.
  
• Chorus is really solid and singable.
  
• "Oh oh ooooo's" are always a good addition to a song! :)
• Overall...Good tune, can't wait to get it on the air. Oh wait...Listen for it starting TODAY!
  

One last thing. If you haven't yet helped with the relief efforts in Haiti, and are feeling called to do so, MercyMe and The Generous Mr. Lovewell have set up a opportunity for you. Text LOVEWELL to 90999 and you'll give $10 to Compassion International. It will automatically be added to your phone bill...Talk about convenient!
