Robex Lundgren blog interview

I had the pleasure a while ago of filling out a questionnaire regarding the music of Martyred Whitmans. I've since reached out again to follow up about the band name change, and rebranding, and they've sent me another questionnaire for the blog. I'll release the link once it's published, but in the mean time, you can go over the previous interview at this link here: http://ghgumman.blogg.se/2016/january/interview-with-martyred-whitmans.html Swan Swandezvous Bandcamp Patreon IndieGoGo YouTube

Ryno's Radio Revolution: Good God Father - An American Band Rebranding Campaign, Oregon Style

Following along with the unfolding apocalypse, Good God Father, here to keep the record straight on the breaking news, stories and agendas that are taking over the internet and air waves. So, with sinking hearts, I, Sean Lewis, send out my sincerest condolences, and warmest affections for the community in Sutherland Springs, TX, who were devastated by an absolute act of pure, and unadulterated evil. My thoughts and prayers go out to the friends and families who were victimized by this ruthless, and staggeringly brutal travesty. It's events like these that are constantly giving me pause to reflect on my vision, and drive as an artists, to reassess my views and values to focus on the heart of the matter, and so far, I'm overcome by my conscience to continue to be fueled by my outrage to pour in to what I know is beautiful. Being a child of the Christian church, myself, I grieve with deep groaning for the body of Christ, as the nation that was founded by it...

Rebranding campaign

Image
Swan here, breaking info on the music front. As part of the rebranding process, I'll be releasing the first two albums I recorded (under the names Auburn, and Masonic Weird), as a single full length LP for digital distribution, which will be titled Context . I've titled it as such in order to give context for what I'll be releasing in the future. I'll release artwork as things develop, but in the meantime, you'll still be able to purchase and download those tracks straight from our Bandcamp until the release. I've also got some more T-shirt and baseball cap designs in the works. If you're interested at all in auditioning on drums or bass, be sure to send an email to goodgodfathermusic@gmail.com . I'm doing the rebrand in order to catch up to something that was never really achieved in the earlier days as a performing artist that Good God Father is about fulfilling. As I like to say, the name we have now is the name that I'd wished we'd had a...

Making It Work

Alright, so after last night, when I sat down to churn out one of these blog post thingies, I got nearly to the very end of a hefty post just for my phone to completely drop my draft. So this time, I'll try to keep things short and sweet and to the point. First, to catch up on, Good God Father shared in two recent performances which were captured on video, which you can watch at these links: Solo performance at The Fifty Pub N Grub in Salem, Oregon, September 22, 2017 X Fest NW, September 3, 2017, Skamania County Fair Grounds, Stevenson, WA The next was a solo performance at the Fifty in Salem: Once you've watched these, be sure to peruse the rest of the videos we've published to get caught up to snuff on what we've posted. One Periscope, we've been slowly plowing through the Nazarene Acts of the Apostles: Recognitions of Clement. A very thoughtful extra-Biblical New Testament text that gives some insight in to the ideas that were floating around at the time surro...

We've now got our ground coverage on all corners of the web to build the resources necessary to hit the ground running with powerful, and intent content, with a message of conviction, and inpsiration. This great world of ours has been hijacked by hostile powers. Thieves have stolen thought, labor, history, and our very lives, through the use of many great lies, reinforced by exorbitant amounts of resources spent on advertising, and media. Artists on the lower levels have expended their efforts in order to gain their corner on the market of that messaging, with messages of vanity, greed, apathy, perversion, and nihilism, and these are the artists that big money get behind in order to continue their vile deception of the whole world's innocence, and sustainability. Good God Father seeks to undermine that agenda, with a counter agenda. An open agenda to thwart those efforts, by creating and promoting content founded on Virtue, Truth, Love, Faith, Justice, Hope, Reason, Trust, ...
