Derek Webb is one of my favorites. A former member of Caedmon's Call, I have just about everything he has put out. He's not very well known in church circles because he can be a bit caustic. He has called the church “weightless, like a leaf from the vine;” “this bastard child,” as listening to “salesemen and thieves,” and “drunk all the time.” In his new one, he critiques the church's love for wealth and poltical power. In other words, it's right up my alley. Well, for reasons known only to the Lord Himself, I have delayed getting his more recent CD called Mockingbird. Well, while I was wondering around last night, I found a website called freederekwebb.com. On this website, Derek says that he will putting out Mockingbird for free on download on September 1. I can promise you that I will there on Friday, downloading that CD. Relevant magazine gave a glowing review of Mockingbird and you can see it here. I would strongly encourage you to download and take time to listen to what he has to say.
