This Beautiful Republic
Free Download from This Beautiful Republic
Free music today from This Beautiful Republic, namely, “Surrender Saved My Life” from the group’s sophomore album Perceptions. It’s a great song, one of those songs that consistently amazes me lyrically. And, it’s available for download from the band’s Purevolume profile. Enjoy!
Free Sampler from Creation Festival: The Tour
Some of you may have already gotten this, but if you haven’t, you’re going to want to. Why? Because it has 10 free songs, from some really amazing artists. How amazing? Check this list:
- Jars of Clay – “Two Hands”
- Thousand Foot Krutch – “The Flame In All Of Us”
- This Beautiful Republic – “Beautifully Broken”
- B.Reith – “Go On”
- Bluetree – “Life’s Noise”

To download the songs, visit the Creation Festival website and enter your email address, after which they’ll email you the information to get the songs from iTunes. Since their from iTunes, they songs will be come complete with the correct album information & high quality artwork, and since they aren’t protected files, you can convert them to play on your non-Apple mp3 player, definitely a nice feature. And to top it off, it’s free! Doesn’t get much better then that. 
Free Song from This Beautiful Republic (Only A 1000!)
I’ve got some fresh free music for you on this fine Monday, courtesy of This Beautiful Republic & Sweet Leaf Tea. Evidently, besides making tea, Sweet Leaf Tea also has a great taste in music, since they’re sponsoring 1000 free downloads of This Beautiful Republic’s hit song “Surrender Saved My Life” through the band’s website.
Like I mentioned, there’s only a thousand copies of the song available, and by the counter on the website, it’s been downloaded 155 times already (at time of posting, that is). I wouldn’t wait around on this one – grab a copy quick! Trust me, it rocks.

The Capital Lights of This Beautiful Republic
Okay, please forgive the not-so-clever-pun in the title. Not of This World (NOTW, for short) has got two free tracks on their website for the month, “Outrage”, the clever & catchy second single from Capital Lights, and “Going Under”, the rocker from This Beautiful Republic’s debut Even Heroes Need Parachutes. Both are quite good, and worthy additions to any Christian rock fan’s playlist. Enjoy!
25 Years (And The Music Don’t Stop)
Free music today from one of the biggest websites in free Christian music, HearItFirst. It turns out that EMI CMG / Sparrow Records (who used to own HearItFirst) had a 25th birthday recently, and to celebrate, they gave away 25 five free downloads, covering what appears to be a full 25 years of music. They’ve got some old classics, and some fairly recent ones too. The full list:
Scott Wesley Brown – “Consider The Lilies”
Amy Grant – “Sing Your Praise To The Lord”
Jump5 -”Friends”
Avalon – “For Freedom”
BeBe and CeCe Winans – “Change Your Nature”
Bethany Dillon – “Waking Up”
Lost Ocean – “Just Glide”
Margaret Becker – “Say The Name”
Newsboys – “You Are My King (Amazing Love)”
Charlie Hall – “Marvelous Light”
Oceans Above – “Beautiful One”
DC Talk – “The Hardway”
Petra – “This Means War”
DeGarmo and Key – “Casual Christian”
Rebecca St. James – “God Help Me”
Sanctus Real – “The Face of Love”
Shawn McDonald – “Captivated”
Stacie Orrico – “Strong Enough”
Delirious? – “Majesty”
Steven Curtis Chapman – “Signs of Life”
Edison Glass – “Let Go”
This Beautiful Republic – “Casting Off”
Future of Forestry – “Open Wide”
Geoff Moore and The Distance – “Homerun”
Audio Adrenaline – “Big House”
As you can see, I wasn’t kidding about a the time line. Amy Grant and Scott Wesley’s songs were both released before my time, and then Shawn MacDonold’s “Captivated” came out just this year. Anyway, regardless of your age, you’ll probably find something you can enjoy. I know James really likes Edison Glass, and I’m glad to see Audio Adrenaline’s “Big House” on the list. That’s just a classic.
To access the downloads, you’ll need to be a HearItFirst member and be signed in. Then you can pick & download the mp3s you want. Happy listening! (Oh, and happy birthday HearItFirst!)
3 Weekly Downloads, Plus J.S. Album Drops
This week, I thought I would save sometime and just write up all three weekly downloads at the same time, thus giving myself more freedom later in the week. The result:
- Weekly Download #1: 20 The Countdown Magazine has added a brand new song by the band Fee! It’s called “All Creation Sings (Joy to The World)”, and looks decidedly Christmas-y. For the download, look in the left sidebar. The download is the top banner.
- Weekly Download #2: Gospel Music Channel has got a free download this week from Attaboy, a group I’ve never heard before. In my opinion, they sounds a lot like Rush of Fools. Grab their song “Califoria”, below.
- Weekly Download #3: iTicket’s has added not one, not two, but THREE free songs to their website for the week. They’re got songs by This Beautiful Republic, Parachute Band, and Jim Brickman. Enjoy!
Speedlinking: Brave Saint Saturn, Lincon Brewster, Addison Road
Speedlinking once again (Friday, because James found a sweet sampler he couldn’t wait to post about. ) Anyway, speedlinking is something I started last week, basically, to save myself time and to diversify somewhat. You can see last week’s introduction here. That said, let’s get started:
1. Brave Saint Saturn has given Indie Vision Music permission to give their song “Starling” away as a free download. Brave Saint Saturn is the electronic side project of several members of Five Iron Frenzy.
2. I was emailed about this 100 Places to Find Free Christian Music Online list this week, and would have had to share it even if TFCMB wasn’t number 21 on the list. It’s extremely complete, and worth perusing.
3. Indie Vision Music has also got two brand new downloads from Gasoline Heart and Discover America. Looks good!
4. Indie Vision Music also has got a full CD download from Amohalko. It’s a full CD called Spark, and looks sweet. Three downloads in one post – yes, Indie Vision Music is amazing.
5. This week’s video is Joy Electric – “What Electricity Made”. See it here.
6. iTicket’s has a free download this week of Lincoln Brewster‘s new song “Today Is the Day”.
7. Total Axxess has a free download of Addison Road’s “Sticking With You”. It looks like it’s only going to be available for a limited time, so grab a copy fast.
7. And last but definitely not least, this week’s archived download is actually a sampler from HearItFirst.com. Check the original post for details.
