Live Life Loud Cover
For those that were not yet aware… we have a new record coming out, and the cover for it was released this week! This is Jason’s dog Murphy, and he is SUCH an adorable little guy. I’ve gotta say, this is my favorite cover image of any we’ve had so far. Very 90’s I think. .timestamp>The 3D glasses aren’t just for show, either. The album will be coming with a...

Live Life Loud Video Shoot
We shot a video for our new single, Live Life Loud, yesterday….. And we had so much fun! Here are some good moments from the day… Moments which give you absolutely no idea what the video will look like, since I couldn’t take photos of any scenes I was in! Jonathan — Post From My iPhone

Who Puts a K Between Two W's?!
As a band, HN is good at 1 or 2 things, and AWKWARD is one of them. Case in point, when Jas called David Crowder up on stage to free-style rap with him last week at Sonshine Festival in Minnesota. I don’t think poor David knew what he was getting into…..
C.S. Lewis
For those of you that do not know…. C.S. Lewis is one of my favorite authors of all time… his books Mere Christianity and The Great Divorce were both life changing for me, on two completely different levels. Mere Christianity gave me an incredible sense of hope…. It helped me understand that I’m not the only skeptical believer out there. The Great Divorce impacted me on a...
The Meaning of Life
Our new ac/chr single, Meaning of Life was released on iTunes today…. Go check it out! Jonathan — Post From My iPhone
The Woods
I’m out in the woods of Oregon. It’s so remote out here. So beautul. It’s wonderful to have a break. We spent last weekend flying around the country, playing shows in Minnesota, Louisiana, and Oregon. That meant long flights, little sleep, and LOTS of coffee! Tomorrow we’re at Creation West…. One of the most beautiful locations we visit every year. There will be...
Lifest
I always think it’s funny to go out and play shows on a weekend, and then watch clips of those shows on youtube when I get home… It’s crazy how fast that stuff gets on there. I found this clip of us playing Live Life Loud at Lifest this weekend. (Say that 5 times fast…. Live Life Loud at Lifest…).timestamp> Oh, and yes, I did fall over at the end. And yes, I meant...
Bloggerbreak!
Ok, so I’m sorry I’ve missed an entire week of blogs. Crazy. It’s been an insane week. We had 4 shows last weekend…. in Ohio, Virginia, Wisconsin, and D.C. It was a whirlwind of travel and it left very little time for anything but playing, signing, and getting to the next show! Our first two shows were with Switchfoot and Skillet…. and I’ve gotta say…. I...
Do You Wanna Get Frosty With Me?!
Jay-Z vs Wendy’s : It seems I’ve stumbled upon an interesting celebrity showdown… This commercial is HILARIOUS…. but touches on a dark trend in the music business. ;) Alright, so if you haven’t already figured this out…. all the controversy is about Auto-tune. If you’re not familiar with Auto-Tune, it’s a studio tool that corrects a...
The World of PC
I had the most ridiculous experience buying a PC today! So if you don’t know this about me already…. I’m an Apple guy. Macbook, iPhone, iPod…. I’ve bought into the whole thing. Haha…. Well, today, I violated my Apple-ethics and bought a PC… and in doing so - had a bizarre experience…. See, Jess needed a laptop for internet and email at home…....
Last Michael Jackson Rehearsal Footage
I spotted a familiar figure in the last known rehearsal footage of Michael Jackson…. Orianthi! She’s a fantastic guitar player, and a fellow PRS player! Jonathan

Re-Views
So I don’t normally read a lot of reviews of our music…. but I came across a review of the single “Live Life Loud” that fascinated me on so many levels - here it is: Horrible. by Soldier of Christ What left is there to complain about the hypocrisy here? The lyrics make no sense. They are not Christian. All your basically saying is dance and scream. How does that praise...
