"breathe it in"

I had the opportunity to photograph my friend Danny's CD release concert last Sunday night. His new album, "Breathe It In," is definitely worth a listen!

Here are a few highlights from the concert...










My favorite song on Danny's new release is the one he wrote for Rayna, one of the best mommies I know...

"If Ever You Worshipped"

It wasn't that long ago
You were a girl all alone
There was no way to know
How soon you'd have kids of your own

Now you're the first one awake
And the last one asleep
Cleaning and making your plans
And there are days when it feels
Like there's no time to pray
You wonder if God understands

But if ever you've worshipped, it's now
If ever you kept your vow
You may not understand how
But if ever you worshipped, it's now

The memory of leaves in the fall
Walking through canyons so tall
God was so close in it all
Now your chance to worship seems small

You're the first one to taste
But the last one to eat
When everyone goes their own way
And it's your name that's called
In the deep of the night
One more hour of sleep floats away

But if ever you've worshipped, it's now
If ever you kept your vow
You may not understand how
But if ever you worshipped, it's now

Every shirt that you fold
Every nose that you blow
Is a gift to the Father above
Every lunch that is made
Every game that is played
Is an offering of love

And if ever you've worshipped, it's now
If ever you kept your vow
You may not understand how
But if ever you worshipped, it's now

Hey, you really need a better pic of me on here. Or at least one where I'm playing the aluminum bucket! :)

Just kidding, great shots! Nice job on the blog.

LOL! Actually, I do have a couple good shots of you playing the aluminum bucket!! Nice job with the 80's songs - that was the best!

Yeah, the 80's stuff totally busted me on my roots. And there weren't a lot of other songs I could have just played, but I happened to know those. :) Got lucky, I guess...

My CD can be downloaded at amiestreet.com/jeffcaylor for now. It will soon be at itunes, etc. I'm doing a CD release show on May 25 at Jimbos Take 2 on Union. I'll have hard copies there. After that, I'll be selling it from my site.
