The Joy of the Lord

[StephenM]

This is the band I am currently in.  I played bass and my lovely wife is the awesome keyboard player.  John-drums, Ian and Spencer-acoustic (I didn't mix this, can't really hear guitar).  Brittany, Hannah, Leah, Monte, Jenna, Monica on vocals....

I ripped this from the FB video (if you want to see it, the song is at 52:10 at this address  (the other 4 are 3:30, 11:18,34:30, 43:40)

I did some post recording production.  This is essentially the facebook feed that goes forth from the Midas 32 board that is used.  Essentially a monitor feed was set up and each input can be adjusted to it... we have had way worse mixes...so this wasn't bad...

I love playing with the band...we have 3 musicians below 30 that are very good... and these ladies love to sing...so my joy in playing matches that well...

Sounds good and looks good! I like the nerdy bit about post production

Bravo Stephen,...and all the choristers and musicians with you (...I watched the video) you are lucky because it is very pleasant to play in a group of choristers Congratulations to each member from France

When the pandemic hit in 2020, and all the performing musicians were caught flat-footed, wondering how to do live-streaming events with good sound, you know who was ready? Churches who had already been live-streaming their services and music for years.

Bass sounds good.

Truly a very joyful song, indeed!!!
This is my first-time listen of this song, and I love it.
Also great to have a glimpser of you and the lovely wife on keyboards.
Love your enthusiasm, and your dancing!!!
Love this Stephen.
Pls extend my appreciation to all, you all sound very nice, and the singing is done well "together".

Thanks for posting this Steve, I enjoyed watching quite a bit of the video. It's interesting to see the cultural differences between the USA and UK. Here, church ceremonies can be very formal and old-fashioned although there are some denominations that are more modern. I get more of a sense of community from watching it ..quite different from my own experience here.

Very uplifting,as Pete said ,religious ceremonies here can be very old fashioned.
Inside this song there is almost a U2 vibe and as bono and the guys are very religious you can see where they get some of their ideas.
A great performance by all.
