Anyway, I do enjoy Rob's songs. Many of them make me feel like I should be at Texas Roadhouse eating peanuts and waiting on my onion blossom. You can check out a bunch of his songs here at this site, or at his myspace music page here. A few that are my faves: "Three Months & A Winnebago," "Too Far Gone," and his rendition of (with Joey Martin on vocals....reminds me a bit of Julie Miller) Freebird. (these songs are Rob's originals that he wrote, but with studio vocals....at least I think that's accurate). Check him out, and listen for one of his songs to eventually hit the radio...and if it does, tell me. I probably won't be listening - but the CD that contains a Rob Harris penned tune will be the first...and perhaps only....country CD I purchase!

Rob Harris Is My Friend
Rob is one of my friends from college. For the past bunch of years, he's been the worship minister at a church just outside Nash-vegas, Franklin TN to be specific. Rob is a great talent, and leads a mean worship service. We've used a number of the worship tunes he's penned at our church in Anderson (and I think we even reported them to CCLI...). Lately, Rob has spent a good bit of time writing. I'll preface this by saying I'm not a country music fan. In fact, I make fun of it often....and can't we all agree that there's plenty there to make fun of?? (Sadly, as I travel around the area of my new residence....lets just say the seek button on the radio seems to only find country stations).

That CD you gave me with some of his songs on it sounded so legit. Not exactly my style but I can obviously see his talent in penning some classic pop and country.
ReplyDeleteLarz...wow! I feel so honored. I've never been the subject of a blog post before. (Is the title a play on the youtube sensation, "Jesus Is My Friend"?)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words and for sharing some of my tunes with your readers. If I ever have a #1 in the country market, you're invited to the party!
Hey man, my privilege! And don't get too inflated...I don't have that many "readers"...though I don't know why. And I didn't think of the "Jesus Is My Friend" tie-in, but I'm going to go watch it now! That's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI always thought you guys were more than friends
