Each week in God and Country Music, Nick Rynerson gives country music a chance and examines the world of Americana, folk, alt-country, and popular country music. Yesterday, Seattle folk-pop band Ivan & Alyosha released their debut album, All the Times We’ve Had. Now, I’ve got to confess, I am hooked on this band right now so everything I say is in the context of “gushing fan.” However, Ivan & Alyosha have something special to offer the American music scene. And with... Read more

Each Tuesday in Music Matters, Matthew Linder explores the intersections of music, culture and faith. “Let’s not have popular culture accost  the gospel but rather enrich popular culture with the gospel.” You might not be aware of this but classical music is experiencing the beginnings of a resurgence in American culture.
