The Gathered to Go album I joined the choir for back in January got released this week. Officially it came out yesterday but it is propagating round various online platforms more slowly – the YouTube version came out today:
Every online play provides a fraction of a cent and sometime next spring I’ll be totting up all the plays of all the Jubilate and Resound Songs and using that to figure out how to split up what was actually received in the account so that artists get the right royalty payment. Online streams are good because they make it more likely that other people will also discover the songs but, having been behind the scenes for the first time, it is very clear that direct purchases support the charity and the artists much more. For that, see the Jubilate website.
One caveat – I think this is a great project with some fantastic songs but don’t expect to be able to pick out my voice in the choir parts (or perhaps that is a bonus!).
