The Aquarian Weekly
I gotta tell ya, I love this stuff. Christian Beach is a name you’ll be hearing in the future from coast to coast its one worth checking out.
In a constantly glutted world of assembly line entertainment,. it’s refreshing to find a singer songwriter who stands on tradition without a fashion-oriented crutch. Christian Beach is following in the time honored direction of John Prine, the Band, Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt and many other musical pioneers.
Smart arrangements feature sparse, melodic pianos, stripped down country guitars and mandolin embelishments that chase the dark and complex direction of Beach's plainsman style straight into the rabbit hole, offering fresh perspective in his ongoing quest for musical direction.
Top-notch musicians such as Gary Massaropi (Les Paul Trio) add legendary class to his sound along with Dan Mulvey,(Sonny Kenn) Michael Scotto, (Agency) Brian Kelley, (ATK) John Pfeiffer, (Well Of Souls) Rob Angelo (Secret Syde) and Gorgo (Private Sector). Christian has also logged studio time with Jason Corsaro of Steve Windwood and Peter Gabriel fame along the way.

I've got some life-saving news! Jesus is alive ! "And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him:lo,I have told you." Matthew 28:5-7 Have you talked to Him today?
