Ourstage decided to add a GIG SUMMARY to artist profiles. Please note this is does not accurately reflect many artist’s gig activity!! The gig stats show only Ourstage ‘connections’ made, representing only a SMALL number gigs, mostly in Northeastern USA—the only GIG CONNECTIONS that OURSTAGE OFFERS. Descending New Angels has nearly 200 performances under its belt, offering an experienced and developed stage presence. We reported this misrepresentation to Ourstage.

We are deeply appreciative to Ourstage & Trabue Gentry for the review of our new song “Break Me,” from our album release this month. Since the review mentioned the lyrical message, we thought we’d post the lyrics:

Break me

Several times I tried to call you
I was lying half dead on the ground
All my problems had succeeded with pulling me down
So I tried to rebound from what I’ve done

But you cannot break me down now
I will not let you
Can’t be safe if I’m not sound!
Not any more now!

Stand by the river and let your whole life pass you by
Oh caught in the crossfire
and I don’t care if I live or die
Don’t walk don’t run and I’ll be right by your side
Don’t come to that sound that
you’ll never ever run and hide

Because you cannot break me down now
I will not let you
Can’t be safe if I’m not sound!
Not any longer!

Several times I tried to call you
and I was passed out dying and all alone
all my problems had succeeded with bringing me down
so I tried to rebound from what I had done wrong

Cause you cannot break me down now
I will not let you
Can’t be safe if I’m not sound!
Not any longer!
Cannot break me down!!

We just finished 3 intense months in the studio and will release our first full CD August 21, 2009. Just posted 5 of the songs that will be on our CD. We’d love to hear your opinions!!

If you are in the St. Louis area around that time we’d love to have you celebrate with us!! We’re so grateful to all of you—our friends, fans and fellow musicians for your love, encouragement and honest feedback; it helps us continue to grow. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
