::Carl Thomas Gladstone::                                      original acoustic music on the prophetic edge
March 16, 2006

Hello friends and fans!  This is the inaugural Prophetic-Edge email!  Thanks for signing up!  As a Spring Tour and new CD become a reality it will be great to have this tool for sharing information about the music I'm currently working on.  These e-mails will be part concert schedule, part theological reflection, and part song workshop, so don't let them just sit in your in-box!  I'm happy to hear from you and talk more with you about these songs that I write and perform.  Thanks again and enjoy!

1)  oft broke echo, RELEASED March 17th!
After many years of writing, recording, and collecting songs since 2001's Tales Scratched Out, CTG returns to the scene with a brand new album thematically based on the question of prayer that seems unanswered.  Among songs about violence toward women, policies of destruction around the workd, and personal guilt CTG places songs of hope and encouragement - written for friends, weddings, and even for the city of Detroit.

  Spring 2006 Tour :   March 17 - 31
I'll be performing house concerts throughout the Midwest and East coast and will have copies of the brand new cd as well as copies of the earlier cd Tales Scratched Out.  Tour starts tomorrow Friday, 3/17, and runs through Friday, 3/31!  Check the web site for details and how to connect with one of these shows.

  Song e-workshop
>From time to time you'll receive a brand new song text and/or mp3 that you are invited to read/listen and respond to.  You'll be an instant musical collaborator just by responding with your thoughts!  Today is a new set of lyrics in support of The Penny Project.  Let me know what you think:
Tethered Together pdf
by Carl Thomas Gladstone


White wristbands and a conversation
Pennies from pockets rolling around.
The forgotten- there, on the kitchen table
A God-moment in coppers and browns.

23 million who the virus has tethered

23 million in Africa
23 million with families and stories
tethered together, where want meets love.

One Penny, One Life
How we respond will distinguish this age
One piece of your life
give a penny, make change.

Let this story be the one to take hold.
Gather partners and carriers,
Not of the message of AIDS and disaster
but of this project for Africa.
Thanks and peace,
CTG
