In a more ideal world, Jean Luc Lajoie, Yves Lajoie, and Pete Nelson should be destined for huge success and popularity. But this isn't an ideal world where the CCM industry governed in some cases by profit making. These three guys from Canada are part of the ministry at Calvary Chapel Albuquerque-a non-profit organization.
This is a high-energy band. Easy to remember the choruses, a foot tapping beat, and, most importantly, ministering lyrical content. The sound is not hard rock or metal-on par with the Bryan Adams sound and style. Another reviewer of the project stated that teens would like this album, well, I guess sometimes I forget how old I am.
The title of the work is I'll Find You There, based on Jeremiah 29:13, "And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart," and the producer is Darrell Mansfield. A running theme in the project is the trouble we face on a daily basis, but all the stormy seas can be calmed by the One who remains on the Throne. We are reminded to "Call His Name" "When You Need Someone." After reading the headlines today, the song "Wild, Wild World" makes more and more sense, and we need to stand together because if we do "light will shine much brighter/In a world that's getting darker/For Him we're marching on." The fast songs are catchy, and the slow songs ("Letter of Love," "Free") make an impact again in the manner of Adams' ballads, but with Biblically sound lyrics.
Put it this way, I heard parts of only two songs on this album before I bought it-nothing in the ten cuts on this album has disappointed me.
