Our former musical endeavor, the David Crowder Band, put out it’s final album in January entitled “Give Us Rest Or (A Requiem Mass In C [The Happiest Of All Keys]).” We spent a good majority of 2011 writing and recording that 34 track behemoth, and it’s something we’re extremely proud of. When we moved things into our new studio and began rehearsing as The Digital Age in February, naturally, the first songs that we began to work up were some of the songs we wrote for “Give Us Rest” that had never been performed live. Enjoy! More to come…

When we returned to our hometown of Waco, TX after the final DC*B show at Passion 2012, we immediately began construction on our new studio, Asterisk Sound. Little did we know that converting a dirty, sweaty gym into a classy recording studio would be such an undertaking. Between ripping out ceiling tiles and building walls, we discussed how we weren’t cut out to be construction workers and how much we were ready to start playing music again. As soon as the main tracking room was completed, we moved in all our gear and started making noise. While we were rehearsing, we began getting emails and tweets from people wondering what we sound like, so we decided to document the process. We’ll start posting these “rehearsals” regularly. Enjoy!

On May 12th, 2012 our drummer Bwack will be appearing at a conference in Minneapolis, MN titled The Drumset And The Kingdom.  Bwack will be speaking in a session focused on drummers using electronic elements and how it affects different aspects of church music.

The event is being hosted by Risen Drums, the custom drum company that Bwack has used for most of his career.

The purpose of the conference is to better equip ourselves as Christians to use the drumset in an effective way in our churches and our communities. Other speakers will include Nate Robinson (Lecrae), Matt Tobias (Geoff Moore, independent studio), and Steve Goold (Owl City, Go Fish).
