Radio Friend Phil – Greetings! It’s time for this week’s New Tunes at 9 Roundup: New Tunes at 9, one-hour of new and emerging music, weeknights at 9 p.m. on WJTL.  New projects available this week include: “Gold” by Britt Nicole, “Live Like That” from Sidewalk Prophets, Jimmy Needham -“Clear The Stage,” and “The Songs You’ve Already Heard: Best Of Hawk Nelson.” Casting Crowns are currently on the “Come To The Well” tour with Matthew West, Royal Tailor and Lindsay McCaul. Casting Crowns’ sixth and latest project “Come To The Well” debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. The record includes the songs “Jesus, Friend of Sinners,” and “Courageous,” a song whose music video promotes the film of the same name. Recently, between shows, Dave O’Connor from Lancasteronline.com spoke to Casting Crowns’ singer Mark Hall about his book “The Well”– and being a youth-pastor who strives to write songs about real-life experiences. You can connect with Casting Crowns at https://castingcrowns.com/node; you’ll find links to the band’s facebook page, twitter, you-tube videos and more.
