To celebrate the season we’re throwing a Christmas Musical Extravaganza Spectacular at Eddie’s Attic on Tuesday December 22nd. A mind-blowing line-up of special guests will include Bethany Dick from Sweet Elizabeth, Ryan Horne, and our new friend Zac Taylor. In addition the Goodfight will be playing a few songs off our freshmen album “home again” that we haven’t played in public in over 3 years! It’s been so long I had to sit down and re-learn most of them!
In addition to good food, good people, and insanely good music….the night will be capped by an all-star Christmas sing-a-along carol session with more guests than i can count. It is sure to be the match that sparks that special measure of holiday cheer in all of us. TRUST ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS. Mark it down on your calendar now and call Eddie RIGHT NOW for a table…it’s going to be serious.
#2…If you haven’t heard yet we’re giving all of our record sales away to our friends at charity: water as we try to help them solve the worldwide water problem. For more info on that check out buyarecordsavealife.com. So we thought that all of you should go to our store, or the buyarecordsavealife site and buy our record as a stocking stuffer for all of your family and friends. There couldn’t be a more beautiful way to give and celebrate Christmas at the same time….your friends and family get great music and you save a life….literally. Briliant. Also…we have some new shirts at our store that are also a great present 10 dollars from each sale goes to charity: water as well. Save a life. We’ll see you on the 22nd. Merry Christmas.
If you weren’t at the Backlot in Decatur last night you should walk into your bathroom right now, stare into the mirror, and apologize to yourself. I am not sure there was anywhere in the entire country that you could have seen so much talent, been so encouraged, and joined such a beautiful movement of justice and mercy as the Buy a Record Save a Life debut last night. Brett Younker, Unhindered, and Kristian Stanfill were as energetic and they were encouraging, and they all illuminated the room with their art and their lives…it was the kind of night where, even though there were 350 people in the room who didn’t know each other, you felt like a family in a living room sharing something special together. Some of the highlights included the debut of Unhindered’s new record “BE”, Kristian’s song “wakeup”, and Josiah Liam Rich [my 2 year old son] leading the room in a sing-a-long on the break down of our song “shes too pretty to be so ugly” hand claps included. Be looking for a video of that real soon, cause it was pretty ridiculous. A major thanks to all of the bands, the production crew, and ESPECIALLY the people at Briarlake Baptist Church for their time, talent, and offerings last night. We sold a ton of records and began, quite brilliantly, the journey of doing our part to solve the worldwide water problem. So if you were there, congratulations. If you weren’t…don’t cry for too long….we’re doing it again 2 weeks from tonight in Athens, GA at the Historic Seney-Stovall Chapel. So mark that one down, and seriously…be there, you won’t regret it.
It is my privilege to finally announce the fruition of many sleepless nights and fanciful dreams packaged in a tangible and interactive project that will, with your help, make a difference in the lives of people all around the world. Today we are launching the Goodfight 10000 and our new site buyarecordsavealife.com. What’s the Goodfight 10000 you ask? Good question….10000 records is the goal and the result will be 100% of the revenue generated given to support the work of our new friends charity: water. Right now there are 1 billion people who do not have access to clean water…that’s 1 in 6 of us. Our hope is that a little record with a little potential, can make a huge difference in literally saving lives. For every record you buy, you will afford 1 person access to clean drinking water indefinitely. So three seconds right now and go checkout the new site! Buy the record…then tell a friend…..and after you’re done with all that check out the dates below….we’ll be doing TGF 10000 launch parties in a city near you…hopefully.

I am very excited about the next step for our record and our band and this process of making art. It’s a beautiful privilege to create and the coolest thing about the next step is you’ll get to be a part of the process. the Goodfight is growing and we will no longer be able to remain a one-man rock and roll show. Rather…we will welcome everyone who wants to join the fight to become a part. Together we’ll make something beautiful. until then…..
