Happy New Year!
On behalf of the entire staff at MusicScribe, we wish all of our readers success in 2018. May you see Christ at work. We plan to continue keeping you informed of pertinent news, and of course, we’ll be analyzing new music and sharing our opinions with you as it is released.
Thank you for reading! Without you, we’d just be talking to ourselves, and where’s the fun in that? – DBM
