There are also video clips and blogs featured at www.remedyiscoming.com, where unprecedented early hints of what is to come on the highly anticipated new album can be seen and heard.
Fans also received a firsthand look via MSN at the debut David Crowder Band concept video, an animated video for the hit song 'Foreverandever, Etc.' from A Collision. MSN already named the video 'This Week's Hottest Feature' and exclusively premiered it on its music home page last week. The video begins with a small altercation between Crowder and a squirrel. The seemingly adorable rodent observes David playing guitar on his porch, but instead of being drawn in, the squirrel scoffs. Thus begins a duel of wits that eventually escalates into a battle of epic proportions. The full video can still be seen at https://music.msn.com/musicvideos, or by going to one of the following links:
After the David Crowder Band was voted MSN's Artist of the Year 2006, MSN noted, 'They've single-handedly redefined what contemporary Christian music should sound like…' The upcoming album, Remedy, will follow the success of A Collision, which was widely regarded as one of the best albums of 2005, receiving five- star reviews and comparisons to groundbreaking albums of the past and artists such as The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Hank Williams. The album further garnered an iTunes No. 1, debuted at No. 39 on the Billboard Top 200 and received GMA Music Dove Award honors for Best Rock/Contemporary Album and Best Rock/Contemporary Song ('Here is Our King'). As the momentum continues, the band received a 2007 Group of the Year Dove Award nomination for the upcoming award show April 25.
Featured at the enormously popular collegiate Passion gatherings, the band also makes it a point to get back to the church they helped found, University Baptist Church, on most Sundays. Crowder is further an acclaimed author, having penned two books, including his acclaimed, highly personal, Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven, But Nobody Wants to Die: Or (The Eschatology of Bluegrass).
