Leading the Christian music industry with radical new ideas, INO singer/songwriter Derek Webb again turns heads with his fourth solo project, The Ringing Bell, released May 1.
As the title suggests, The Ringing Bell, is a collection that sounds clearly through the noise of the day, beckoning some, and warning others. It’s a call to meaningful conversations and it’s a great time. It injects songs into the cultural bloodstream that will move listeners to reflection and action while moving their feet.
“I felt like there was more to say about the subject [peace], “ says Webb. I wanted to get further into the nuances of it. This is too important of a moment historically to not say more about the idea of peace. It’s right in my face at all times if I claim to be at all concerned with anything that Jesus ever said.â€
As Webb’s album became available to the public last week, the innovative songwriter is once again giving his fans a way to experience his music (and more) via electronic communication. After giving away over 80,000 free download of his Mockingbird album online last fall, Webb recently launched, The Ringing Bell.com, a place where fans and friends can go to hear some of the songs from the project, or place an order receiving the album and a bonus book. The book is a 96-page limited edition graphic novel, featuring complete lyrics and original artwork inspired by the record.
Reviews have been pouring in praising Webb’s latest effort, including publications such as; Paste Magazine, HM Magazine, CCM, Relevant, Christian Music Today, and many more.
