"Passages," the new CD from Billy Crockett

Billy Crockett now lives at his ranch outside Wimberly, where he continues to record music, and develop a retreat for artists and other searchers.

But he recently wrote us to let us know about a new CD of his music that's been released. The CD, entitled "Passages," is a inspiring collection of solo guitar songs, written by Billy. Below, you will see a review of the CD, written by our own John Thornburg, that ran in the Dallas Morning New Religion section.

The CD is available at Billy's website.
Also, members might want to take a virtual tour of Billy and Dodee's wonderful "Artist Ranch and Studio, by clicking here.

In his letter to us, Billy sends his love to all his Northaven friends, and says that he still thinks of us often.

Whoever said songs of faith must have words hasn't heard this recording. Billy Crockett's technical mastery and the delicious sound of the Rozas Spanish guitar are only the beginning. This collection of 14 songs for solo guitar guides the listener on a journey to the important space between hope and lament. Mr. Crockett, a Texas singer/songwriter with a rich discography of Christian songs, says of his faith journey, "After a lengthy creative engagement with institutional religious faith, I am listening more and endorsing less."
