"Set It Free" by Cindy Boehler Cindy Boehler (Bluegrass/Gospel Artist from Axtell, Nebraska (NE))

Wow! That's the word that comes to mind when you listen to "Set It Free" by Cindy Boehler. This mother of seven can sing! Her voice has a very smooth sound with great pitch that will remind you of Karen Carpenter. The CD also includes tremendous backing music by top musicians, including the Jordanaires! The musician's fly up the fretboard in You Gotta Know. One of our favorite tracks is One Step, with a memorable chorus and nice banjo and fiddle fills throughout. If you are a fan of talented mother's who put down their talents to take care of their families, or a fan of country or Americana music, you'll enjoy this CD. Pick up a copy today! - Review by RadioIndy staff

"Battle of the Warrior the Rebirth" by FazeBlaze (Christian Hip-Hop/Rap artist from San Diego, California (CA))

"Battle of the Warrior the Rebirth" is an impressive combination of rap/hip-hop with rock guitar and synthesizers and Christian lyrics. FazeBlaze's rapping is well-synched to the beat and uses excellent pitch to deliver powerful lyrical messages about life and God. The guitar work and synthesizers are impressive and provide creative backing music. One of our favorite tracks is "Where Angels Dare to Go," which has a very nice backing synthesizer mix and a memorable chorus. Tracks such as "Warrior" tell powerful stories about how God resurrected a troubled young man. "Mustard Seed" highlights FazeBlaze's screeching lead guitar work. You've got to hear the very cool child vocal mix in the chorus of "How Shall They Hear Without a Preacher." This CD is strong evidence that FazeBlaze is an artist to watch in the world of Christian rap. Pick up a copy of "Battle of the Warrior the Rebirth" today!

"Clothed in Gladness" by David S. Abramsky (Instrumental Christian artist from California (CA))

Soothing original compositions. Lively arrangements of Christian and Jewish melodies. CD's, Live performances, Studio cellist. Words & Music Magazine says this about his music: "Composer David Abramsky lovingly marries cello and piano ... rich, gentle melodies relate it to the relaxation music genre but Abramsky coddles and captivates with hooks that are occasionally reminiscent of the Broadway stage." A Jewish believer since 1997, David released his latest CD, "Clothed in Gladness" in May 2004. 14 tracks, 55 minutes. Instrumental cello and piano music, often with soft string/orchestral treatments. New to this CD: several tracks weave two cellos into a beautiful duet. Enjoy a mix of Christian worship melodies and Jewish songs as well as several of David's own original compositions. If you enjoyed his compositions on "A World of Good", his first CD, you will love these!
