christa here...
well, blog is created!
this is the unofficial blog for our band Destination: Paradise.
the band started as nothing more than a dream about two years ago when three girls decided they wanted to use their talent of voice in some way..
our small band consists of three (possibly four) people.
there's me, christa, titled lead singer. and possible bassist in the future. but just lead singer for now.
there's beth: song writer, lead guitarist, high harmony.
there's zoe: pianist, low harmony, future percussionist. when we get enough money to get drums.
and there's recently-asked "helper" for now, ethan. zoe's friend.
beth and i, however, have yet to meet him.
our band only recently became something a bit more than a dream. we actually feel like this is going somewhere.
we feel that we have definitely improved in our singing ability, and beth in playing guitar, as she is now taking lessons at Laconia High School every morning (?) i am sure she'll correct me if im wrong...zoe has improved drastically in her piano playing, and i have nothing major to count for, besides my voice. beth has asked the worship leader at her church if they would help us with some songs once we have created enough to show for. i am told that they have an amazing drummer, so that should help zoe and with our tempo. and keeping together and all that. we've been totally psyched about this whole band thing because for the first time since we've been trying to make this work we feel that things are really coming together and we feel like we can actually take this to a whole new level of excitement and hopefully, eventually, if we are called to do so, be able to perform and record. but that's a ways down the road.
it took us a while to settle on a name. we had brainstormed a ton of different ideas for names and this was the one that jumped out at me the most. i just thought it sounded really cool and it does actually have meaning. we, as Christians have a destination to paradise. that paradise that God made for us is His kingdom in Heaven. Destination: Paradise. other names that we had considered were 3bygrace, Colorless Flame, A Chord of 3, among others. but, just today, we concluded that Destination: Paradise would most likely be the name.
so, we have leanrned many things already in this journey so far, and are sure to learn many, many more. but one thing we have to always keep in mind is to trust God and that he is leading us on the right path.
we only have two songs as of yet: Here and Now and Freefall(ing)
well, i think that's pretty much it for now. we hope to post some pics soon...
