New World Son, etc.
Posted by Amanda on March 4th, 2008 . Filed under: Music .On Sunday night I went to the Newsboys concert with several of my friends. Now I’m not a huge NB fan, but I went because my friends love them so much, and at least one of them went to the Casting Crowns concert just for me. That being said… the highlight of the show, for me, was not the Newsboys. It was the 3 opening bands: Article One, New World Son, and Rush of Fools.
I had never heard of the first two, but I was more than pleasantly surprised.
Check out this violin solo from Article One (try and get past the guy in the middle of the shot to actually see Matt play):
New World Son was also incredible. They have an old school blues/almost jazz-like sound. This song of theirs is my favorite:
And of course I knew who Rush of Fools are (I already had the cd). They were awesome in concert.
Sorry, Newsboys – you just didn’t do it for me! But the rest of you sure did.

Wow, that violin solo was great! It’s apparently a warm, summer day and I’m ready for that.
