LISTEN: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers, “Light of Day”

Posted on by Editor

Artist: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers
Hometown: Los Angeles, California
Song: “Light of Day”
Release Date: December 2, 2022

In Their Words: “‘Light of Day’ is an Americana folk rock song featuring a choir, banjo, fiddle, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and auxiliary percussion. It pulls from artists like The Beatles, Nick Drake, and Paul Simon. The song is about confronting the past and realizing that regret is silly. It’s about recognizing that even poor decisions are valuable. It’s about letting the bad times lead to better times. The song is about letting the hard seasons in life lead us to the good ones. It’s about finding peace in learning the hard way. ‘Light of Day’ is about being thankful for the painful teachable moments in life and having a bit of a sense of humor about it. Enjoy.” — Jeremy Horton, The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers

LISTEN: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers, ‘Take Me to the Water’

Artist: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Song: “Take Me to the Water”
Album Title: No Glory
Release Date: July 14, 2017

In Their Words: “I wrote this song a few years ago, actually. My intention was that we’d all have parts on sing on it. I was really wanting to write something that included everyone.  This song is really about judgment. I’m a fairly private person, to a certain extent. It’s hard for me to talk about a lot of things, but I think what’s hardest is talking about God, religion, and my beliefs, in general. This song is about truly having to be open with all of that, saying this is who I am, this is what I believe. But also being ready to be judged for it. I’m still the same person you knew yesterday (or 10 years ago, for that matter). I’ve always been this way. Take it or leave it.” — Kim Garcia

WATCH: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers, ‘Heavenly Fire’

Posted on by Editor

Artist: The Eagle Rock Gospel Singers
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Song: "Heavenly Fire"
Album: Heavenly Fire
Label: Ba Da Bing Records

In Their Words: "I wrote 'Heavenly Fire' to honor my grandparents. I wanted to tell what I believe to be a sort of pseudo-cinematic adaptation of their life story. It’s more or less a celebration of the lives that they lived and a prayer for them.

The video was shot by our producer/all around content creator, Matt Wignall, who came up with the desert landscape/desert angel/desert spirit/desert ghost theme. We went out to Joshua Tree and shot from the afternoon until dusk for more of the 'golden hour' effect. We were greatly helped by the work of Britney Cherry who co-produced and did costume, as well as make-up, work for us. Hope you dig it!" – William Richard Wadsworth
