He continues to record albums and release them in partnership with Integrity Media – the latest being ‘LEVEL GROUND’ (Sep 2010 International release / Jan 2011 US release). This is Brian’s 2nd DVD and features the musicians off stage among the participants, while on the stage people share their grace story.
He has also completed a double album recording of a musical (an 8 year writing process!) with Christopher Greco (a playwright based in Boston) based on Luke 15 called ‘Prodigal God; The musical tale of two sons and one wastefully extravagant father’. It’s the story of the prodigal son and his father seen through the eyes of the elder brother. The musical features 23 new songs written or co-written by Brian. http://www.prodigal-god.com
