From Mitch

I’m recording an album.

I’ve had this vocation for years. I’m hoping to give people something to hang on to…with the songs that I write…with the concerts I do…with the recordings I make.

I’m dependent upon your “givingness”. You have given me a great amount of support over the years. I have experienced it.

That support has turned to friendship. Now, you are friends that I am unable to do this without. I cannot wait to partner with you on this next leg of my journey.

The Kickstarter project will run November 8 – December 8, and you can find it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mitchmcvicker/mitch-mcvickers-new-2026-album

The budget for this new album that I am recording is $19,000. That is the goal. That is the amount that, with you, I am attempting to raise. That dollar amount goes towards studio time, engineers, players, mixing, mastering, photography, design, and manufacturing.

I am hoping to release the album March/April 2026.

I got started in this line of life by working with Rich Mullins. Rich was my friend, my roommate, my mentor. He pushed me to be an artist.

I was then in the car wreck that killed Rich. It took me years to recover from some pretty serious injuries.

Since Rich’s death various projects have come about that revolve around Rich. This is not one of those projects. This album does not revolve around Rich.

AND…one of the biggest reasons I am doing this is because Rich believed in me. Rich was pushing me towards doing this very thing that I am now doing…making songs, doing concerts, and recording albums.

I am recording an album.

I am trying to be faithful to how God is working in me. I am trying to follow in the way of Jesus. I am trying to live out love. And those things will inevitably pull trust out of me.

I am wanting to write songs that point towards God’s involvement in our lives…which is way more than we often suspect. I want to communicate about God as God of the practical…God of the everyday….God of what we deem to be mundane…God of what we take for granted.

If this album can reflect these things, and if I can get these points across with these songs, then it is time and energy well spent. It is life truly lived.

I am recording an album.

I am dumping myself into it.

I’d be moved to partner with you.

The time has come for “Behind the Lightning”! In the making of my new project, I’ve been flying under the radar. Now the album is out & ready to interact with the world. You can get it on my website, at concerts, and on all music platforms. Your support has played a huge part in making this possible. Thank you!

Patreoners already know about the album and received the digital download in a message from me. Join “mmcvmusic” on Patreon if you’d like to be a part of the other goodies coming up for 2023.
Concerts are starting TODAY, so check out my website and fb events page for the ever-progressing tour. Hope to see you along the way!

Here is the new-look website!

And my new album, A Shrugging of the Shoulders, comes out June 12.

The pandemic seems to be lifting…so that means there will be a beautiful newness to the second half of 2021. I will be doing 50-some concerts between now and the end of November.

I hope to see you along the way.

Shrug your shoulders…embrace the mystery of life that is all around us and within us…and remember, it’s not apathy, it’s trust.
