At The Cry Of The First Bird - Ethan McGrath

This is a little rendition I did for my new album, The Simple Gospel. I feel like sometimes songs like this are perceived as cliché, or worn out. I really like the simple, child-like message of this song, so I tried to make it new. I also managed to squeeze in a little tin whistle solo on this one.

Dry Bones

My musical setting of a poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley, performed here by tenor Mark Laster and me.
