After several whole pizzas and cups of coffee consumed, Michael Nichols and Jared Rosdeutscher brought Love And Fear to life in May of 2016. They finished recording all of their electric and acoustic guitar parts during the summer of that year and Jared got some of his WKU music friends Luc DiGiuseppe (bass guitar) and Josh Propst (cello) to record on the album. Alicyn Newman played violin on the album and piano was recorded by Michael's brother Josh Jessen. There were guest vocals from their friends Bethany Pedigo and Martha Christian in the SOKY worship community on the album as well.
What started as Michael's sole vision became a very rewarding whole effort with some of Bowling Green's most talented musicians becoming a part of Love And Fear. All of the main tracks were finished in fall of 2016 but some gang vocal and other vocal tracks were recorded in 2017. This project has spanned years of good and bad, light and dark, and of course, love and fear before being mixed, mastered, and finalized in early 2018. It has been a long journey and the songs on Love And Fear are deeply embedded with the stories of that journey of life.
We hope that through these songs you can hear those stories and that they become a part of your life as well.
