Changes, Guidance, and What’s to Come….

Changes, Guidance, and What’s to Come….


With 2008 coming to a close, a few other chapters in the book of torndown have come to an end. Some of which were extremely hard to do, but when all is said and done, we are not the ones making the decisions. God works in mysterious ways, we all know. He does things for reasons we may not yet know or understand, and frankly, we may never understand.


With 2008 ending, torndown and bassist Kevin Zufall have parted ways. While Kevin and his family have been a blessing for everyone and everything that torndown has done, the group has felt God calling them in a different direction. We are still in prayer that God will lead through this time and we are thankful for all that Kevin brought to torndown.


On another note, Tim has traded his Taylor acoustic/electric guitar in towards an electric guitar amp. For the past few months the group has been feeling God’s guidance to do something a little different with their music. Something they originally had aspirations to do; to be a full rock band. This has been a long time coming, considering some of the guitar pieces that Tim has been writing.


We still plan to play some acoustic shows, as we really do owe a lot to the acoustic guitar. Bottom line is that 2009 will probably hold a slew of different musical endeavors for torndown.


Jonah will be making his second trip out to CT next week, our prayers are with him as he travels and we all pray the torndown will have a great few days of practicing.


With our opportunity in Nashville being almost at an arms reach, we are preparing for the best. Come mid/late March, we will be playing three new songs that have not been released, written with the latest sounds of torndown for the showcase at Rocketown.


As with everything in life, torndown has seen it’s own ups and downs. However, God is faithful, so as we hold on to the one thing that will never disappoint, we look forward to 2009 with great expectations! “But seek His Kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.” Luke 12:31


Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy New Years,
