[ September
24, 2003 ] Audio Adrenaline-founded
label Flicker Records has announced the launch of Big
House Kids, a record label which will specialize in the creation of
children’s products that communicate the love of Christ and Biblical values
through fun, engaging mediums such as music, video, interactive games and
live tours. “At first glance, it might seem a little odd that a
company that’s known for its rock artists would be interested in creating
a children’s label,” said Bob Herdman, president and co-founder of Flicker
Records & former founding member of Audio A. “The fact is, we all
either have our own kids or are really involved in the lives of our families.
As we shared some common parenting experiences, we realized that there’s
a definite void in the marketplace for high-quality ‘edu-tainment’ for kids.
I’m convinced that we have projects that will rival anything in the marketplace
in terms of quality and relevance to children.” |

it is to get involved in the world around them." As part of "The Go
Show," Audio Adrenaline will be committing their Saturday mornings to working with youth on community service projects in

[ Sept
19, 2002 ] The tentative title for Audio's new record is "Worldwide," with a release
date aiming for February. "It's a record to take a generation that's done
a lot of worship to the next step," explains Mark. "[It's about] worshipping
with your whole life." Some song titles already established include "Worldwide,"
"Go & Be," "Strong," "Pierced," and "You Ruined My Life." Mark has also
mentioned a song called "Get Dirty," and was quick to explain, "It's about
getting out of the mindset that the church is supposed to be clean and perfect
and to reach out more to the lost." When asked about the sound the record
is going for? "It's more upbeat -- more like Underdog than Lift." |
