the Christian music industry

i don't feel like i have a ton of room to speak on this issue since i've never been full on in the Christian music industry; never signed to a label, never a professional Christian musician.  however, i've been a fan for a while and i've talked to a lot of people in the industry, on the production side, the professional musician side and i've heard kind of the same thing i've been thinking.

my old friend derek shacklet (shacknotes.com) posted these two articles that got my little brain thinking...  

this one is an opinion piece for CCM by Charlie Peacock*.  

this is his opinion.

this is a follow up interview with charlie peacock

http://www.collidemagazine.com/article/107/four-questions-for-charlie-peacock


anyway.  i think the Christian music industry is in for a change.
love.


*his wikipedia page has a pretty good bio  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Peacock
he also has his own website, charliepeacock.com and he wrote New Way to be Human.
