Most of all, Jesus. He set me free from my sin, my past, myself, and even the religious chains I later forged.

Sounds Like

Beauty

So this is what it looks like on the other side of the veil / This is what it feels like to have my spirit raised like a sail / The tree was pierced by the nail that held you there and Your blood flowed down / Our hearts were pierced by Your word and by Your prayer and we could only bow down / The time of the veil has ended / The secret place has been found / The cares of this world are behind now / Your blood has bought this holy ground / Beauty dripping from heaven / Beauty adorning Your bride / Beauty filling our hearts now / And in Your beauty we'll abide.

   About Will Revo
PLEASE visit the band website for lots of free music downloads and articles.

Also stop by my Facebook Page to say hi.

tSr - because the world needs to hear...

Located in coastal North Carolina somewhere between the historic and cultural city of Wilmington and the military flavored city of Jacksonville is the little group we refer to as "Will Revo". That's actually my name but I'm privileged to have my wife Cathy and other friends occasionally playing my songs with me as we play at different venues in our area or beyond.

Our style is acoustic folk rock filled with vocal harmonies and creative raw percussion.

The music we play, and the passion in which we play it, is spiritually inspired by our relationship with God through Jesus, His Son. We don't hide the fact that our music is spiritually based but rather feel there is a neccesary place for it in the secular arena as well as in "Christian" circles. We've been genuinley surprised to see the postitive response when God-seeking songs are presented in a non-religious way. When a song can touch the core of a searching soul, that life is forever enriched, and we hope that that will be the result of our music. We pray that believers will be strengthened, seekers will be stimulated, and those in between will be provoked.

I play a 3 hour solo set every Friday night in the lounge of Christopher's Restaurant in Sneads Ferry, NC where I get to play my original music in combination with classic cover songs which have a deep meaning to me. Another venue that's dear to us is Francesco's Cafe in Wilmington.

My heart's desire is also to see those who have been broken and bruised by religion, whether Christian or otherwise, feel the love of the Father for them, to understand the purpose of Christ's sacrifice, and to walk in the spiritual authority that comes with being a son or daughter of the King. Please feel free to contact me at "willrevo@yahoo.com" if you have any questions or have been burned out and need some encouragement. I'd love to hear from you.

You can also visit www.batteredsheep.com, www.letthelightout.com, www.awildernessvoice.com, www.openheaven.com, and I highly recommend www.familyroommedia.com.

"TRAVEL THE CAVE" reflects the journey towards the heart of God through the trials and blessings of life. Many of the songs are heartfelt prayers of intimacy or expressions of the discoveries made on the journey.

"Come Home" is our most recent project. The CD expresses man's heart-cry to return to Father God in spite of all the obstacles. The mixing is complete but we have yet to send it in for mastering and duplication. Pre-release copies are available at live gigs.

I can't believe it I have many friends in Couer D Alene. What church are you out of? What brought you to NC? I have been there and have some friends who pastor a church called Morning Star....have you heard of it? Great hearing from you and listening to your sound. I would like to have a second home in NC. Well, tell me more when you get a chance.
