 Lara Landon’s sophomore project, Overcome, released on her own
Wise Sam label. Co-produced by the artist in cooperation with Mitch Dane, Steve
Wilson and Brian Hitt, the album is available from New Day Christian Distributors
(phone: 800-251-3633; fax: 800-361-2533).
Who is Lara Landon as an artist? The
music that I write is just an extension of who I am in everyday life. Just like
all believers, I have some really hard times and some great moments, and music
for me is an expression of that. I try to make music that I would like to hear,
music that is really honest and stylistically close to what I grew up
loving—folk, musical theater, pop, classical.

 Part
of the music business for three decades, Don Moen, singer-songwriter and former
Integrity Music executive, releases his next album, Uncharted Territory
(EMI CMG Distribution), March 27, 2012, under a different label, in:ciite Media.
Why did you title this album Uncharted
Territory? In December 2007 I felt compelled to pursue a new
direction in my ministry, which led to my resignation as an executive from
Integrity Music after serving there for over 20 years. Essentially, I left everything that was
secure and familiar to me—job, friends, church, doctors, schools, and moved to
a new city where nothing was familiar.
I struggled with fearful thoughts and loneliness, wondering if I had
made a mistake putting my family at risk to pursue this new direction. Uncharted
Territory was birthed as a result of my honest searching to find God in all
the chaos. I realized that many people
find themselves in uncharted territory every day due to circumstances that are
beyond their control, like the loss of a job, divorce, sickness or the death of
a loved one, and I was determined to find a way to “sing the Lord’s song in a
foreign land” (Ps. 137), offering sincere and honest worship, even through the
toughest times. This album is probably the most vulnerable project I’ve
recorded, and yet each song reinforces the truth that “God is faithful.”

 Perhaps no representative of
Christianity embodied the spirit of a fighting faith as well as the apostle
Paul, who suffered profoundly for Christ. He also penned the famous verses in 2
Tim. 4:6-7, which refer to the Christian life as the “good fight.”
