So, Why the Strange Name?

In July 2006, Chris Solaas was sitting in a church service, half-listening to his Pastor Tim Lampley talking about the parable of the talents.

Suddenly, something the pastor said got his attention - 'The talent mentioned here could be anything God has given you that you have NOT invested in His kingdom.'

'That's YOU,' God suddenly seemed to say to Chris. 'YOU are that wicked servant. You buried the songwriting talent I gave you.'

It was true. Chris had written songs early in life, from 1976 - 1986, he wrote about 30 love songs, many depressing, some rather good. But since 1986, he'd written only a few songs, all pointedly Christian, when God pounded them into his skull. God had told Chris this before, but all that came out of it was the song, 'A Reward', which you can listen to on our SoundClick site.

This time, God wasn't going to take 'no' for an answer. So Chris said 'ok, God, I'll take whatever songwriting talent I have and use it for Your glory.'

Since that time, God has given Chris about a song a week.

What you are hearing is the first installment in that investment, our first album, Painted On Smiles. Our second album, Forever and a Dayis due out this fall.
