Music
I’ve sat down to write this section of our site a few times and each time it kept feeling forced, phony, or cheesy. I couldn’t quite figure out why. On the way into work this morning it came to me. This page can’t be about trying to market the hip new thing. This music is history, it’s archival data. We’re not really doing this any more… well at least not in the same way. These CDs are about where we’ve come from.
Are We There Yet?
Our first recording endeavor. It’s very “awww… isn’t that cute” to me now and it sounds like it was recorded in someone’s garage (because it pretty much was) but none the less there are some great musical moments on here. Check out Jason’s killer bass work on The Angel Song (one take boys and girls) or the arrangement on So Still. And then there’s Highroad, which you have to admit is pretty groovy for a bunch of white kids from Western Montana.

Ordinary Day
Ordinary Day was in some ways our crowning musical achievement as “The Bendickson Brothers”. For me, it was the long awaited realization of boyhood ambition… kinda like buying your first car. Recording in a real studio with an actual budget. It’s some of our best writing and the definitely the most collaborative project we’ve done. Besides that, it’s just fun music. Listening to 99 Days, or Ordinary Day I still can’t help but smile. And for my money, You Are My God is as good or better than most anything you hear on contemporary Christian radio these days.

If you’re interested in ordering a CD, either fill out this handy CD Order Form or just drop us an email. We’d be happy to get one mailed out to you. You’d really be helping us out since mom and dad are just about fed up with us storing all of our stuff in their basement!
