HURRY – ENDS September 21, 2016
‘The Afters’ have such inspirational and uplifting messages in all their songs.
The Afters are a Christian pop-rock band founded by Joshua Havens and Matt Fuqua and have just recently released their newest album, “Live On Forever“. The band has taken life experiences and turned them into uplifting music. During a season of tragedy, the song “Life On Forever” was created and is a celebration of faithfulness and promise. The other band members are Jordan Mohilowski and Dan Ostebo.
This is taken from The Afters website, showing how meaningful things are:
Havens shares how, half a world away from his home in Phoenix, he caught a small glimpse of heaven’s reassurance.
The band was touring in Amsterdam and had asked sound man Martinez and his wife to join following the tragic loss of their daughter in an effort to shower the couple with love and support.
While the band was sound checking, their wives explored the city and stumbled upon the perfect place to go for a post-show dinner: A Cafe called Pieper. It was the only time they had ever seen another use of the spelling that they had chosen for their daughter’s name.
After the show, they headed to the café, where they shared words of support and remembered Pieper. But upon getting up to leave, they noticed that the only thing on any of the walls was a framed document–an award given to the Pieper Cafe for hospitality. The date on the award–the only date visible in the entire cafe – was the same date as baby Pieper’s birthday.
Quote from Havens, “We were all in disbelief. Pieper’s name and birth date on a wall, in a cafe, all the way on the other side of the world!”
Havens sums up the reassurance all took home that night: “This is where God’s angels fly: right in the middle of our loss. God gives us little glimpses to show us that he’s here, even in the midst of our pain.”
Just listening to the words of each song as the band sings brings on peace, spirit and energy.
Haven’s has such a strong voice and he invites his listeners to find shelter and strength in God.
Another quote from Haven:
“When I think about the things that have challenged my faith the most-—the dark nights of my life-—these are also the very things that have strengthened my faith most. In the midst of tragedy, I’ve experienced God’s presence.”
And through that forever presence, those dark nights turned into bright, shining music.
“We worked on this record for almost two years and over those two years, it was a real season of loss,” Havens recalls. “But in the end, Live on Forever is about moving us to trust God, to stand up against fear. It’s an ‘amp you up’ record, an anthem for people’s lives: ‘God you are with me in all this. I’m not alone.’
There are 10 songs on the new album: SHADOWS, BATTLES, SUNRISE, TIME TO MY LIFE, WAKE UP MY HEART, LIVE ON FOREVER, EYES OF A BELIEVER, SURVIVORS, LEGENDS, and WHEN YOU’RE WITH ME. When you listen to this awesome group, filled with innovative, cutting-edge and fresh pop music, you will be captivated by their voices and music.
I couldn’t have received this album at a better time with our granddaughter going through her major fight with a massive lung tumor that has infiltrated her spine. The quote from Josh is perfect to keep us going while waiting for her surgery. “Live on Forever” is about moving us to trust God, to stand up against fear. It’s an ‘amp you up’ record, an anthem for people’s lives: ‘God you are with me in all this. I’m not alone’.” Quote from lead singer, Josh Havens.
