Radio Tour Intro



Radio Tour
     Wow! What an exciting week ahead. We are going through Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, and Florida all in less than a week. We are doing a radio tour because our first single titled "Red Roots" has been released. Yes. Red Roots is also our group name. Both our group name and song represent the core message and focus of our group that we are rooted in the blood of Christ. His sacrifice on the cross gave our lives meaning and hope. The song “Red Roots” tells a story of a dad and his daughter going on a hunting trip looking for Sassafras trees. They need the red roots of the Sassafras trees to make red tea with. The dad uses the hunting trip to show his daughter how the red roots of the sassafras tree compare to the red roots of Jesus Christ. The song “Red Roots” blends our earlier bluegrass and contemporary styles to form our new Christian Country sound. We are excited to get to meet all of the djs and people on the road throughout the tour. Thanks to those who play and request our song. It helps us so much whenever people call their radio stations to request "Red Roots", and when a dj gives our song a listen. We want to also thank those who have encouraged us and supported us. We are going to have a great week, and we can't wait.

Red Roots Music Video

The Music Video is finally here! It seems like yesterday that we were in the woods playing our instruments, and a film crew just came walking by and started shooting.  Well that's not exactly how it happened, but we did film in the woods obviously (which was so much fun if you like sweat and dirt ha). I've already talked about the woody fun that we had in the last blog, so I'll talk about the more serious stuff.  The video is so important for us to have with the song because it is kind of like our motto.  We are Red Roots, and we have Red Roots.  Having Red Roots is the most important part of our lives.  Jesus Christ is the foundation of our lives.  He is the most important reason to live and to sing.  Being rooted in Christ gives me true contentness and happiness that I can continue living each and everyday.  I surely am not perfect, but God sees only my Red Roots.
