I’ve been trying to catch up with the Derek Webb podcast lately. Really appreciating it. He’s been doing it for a while. If you are one who enjoys his music, most likely you’ll enjoy the podcast as well.
In the third podcast, he is summarizing good art and the Christian involvement. He insists that it’s his (like all artists) job to produce bold and truthful art. Derek also says that too many Christian artists want to be popular and sell a lot of cds as opposed to making great art. We have all heard that a million times before but what I appreciate about it is that it’s
coming from someone who actually is selling records. Someone who has enjoyed the royalty checks from the Christian music industry and someone who turned his back on it.
He also mentions his appreciate for Dylan and Wilco – can’t wrong with that.
Check him out here.
Absolutely loving Stockholm Syndrome. Brilliant stuff!

It’s an awesome album.
I’m a big fan of his acoustic stuff but i love the new wave loops and beats on that album too.
