sharing ideas to stir compassion and action

The Welcome Wagon have released an album of modest folk music. Their songs are beautiful melodic takes on a vast history of hymns and songs of traditions, with lyrics that express a simple desire to know their Creator and express their faith through a beautifully modern and quirky sound.

With no musical background and after becoming Christians, this husband and wife duet set out to learn instruments so they could enjoy singing hymns with their family. You get a sense of this intimacy in the album, with its simplicity, the complimentary voices singing about their shared faith.

Their sweet and unassuming sound has been influenced and helped along by Sufjan Stevens, who produced and arranged the album.

It is a refreshing album helpful for quite reflection or perfect accompanying your Saturday coffee, toast and newspaper reading in the sunroom.
