Hi Bryan!!Congratulations on your newest album Joyride. I think it's wonderful. Really you, and really something new at the same time. Getting that 'old' blues-feeling back. I've been a fan of yours ever since I heard the first few opening notes of 'Have yourself committed' some 18 (?) years ago now. I admire your style, your honesty, and the way you combine humor and deep thoughts.So sorry you never really broke through here in the Netherlands. I know you've been here once or twice though (I was there too). Now that I think of it; any plans of ever coming here again??? You know, the tiny country -more than half of it lying below sea level- in the North-West of Europe with those TALL people in it??Well, enough of this.May God bless you (and your family)!!Karel

I started listening in high school, and now (15 years later) I'm the children's pastor at my church. I'd really like to introduce some of my kids to your older music--particularly "Have Yourself Committed" and "Don't You Wanna Rap"--is there ANYWHERE I can find a recording of these? Thanks for any help you can give me!

I wanted to let you know that your songs have touched greatly! I just went through a really bad time in my life and It seamed that there was no end to the trial I was going through. I turned on the radio and heard the song Blessed Are the Tears. God is using your songs to minister to people and help them through hardships! God Bless you!!

Dear Bryan, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I have enjoyed your songs for the past 5 years. The first CD I heard was Soul Revival. You're my favorite artist. One who has a great sense of humor and make your concerts such an uplifting experience. May God continue blessing you and letting us get to know Him thru you. Can't wait to see you in concert in Feb. 2002 in Bloomington!!!!

Hi Bryan, Just to tell you that I'm over 70 and love the new releases we have JoyRide and The Last time I was Here. I "discovered" you because of a Christian radio station in Deer Lodge, Mt. and ran out and got "The last time.. " That title song brings me to tears each time I play it. Today I heard you over a Moody station coming from Chattanoga and I am guessing it is from "My Utmost for His Highest"..so I intend to go to the local bookstore and listen to what I believe was a smooth flowing tune that reminds me of the 40's music. I hope I findit. When I read that you enjoy "Confessions of St. Augustine" I knew we were kindred spirits. The old masters have much more "meat" in them then do current writers! Bless you and your family. Keep composing and singing! Bev

Hey Bryan - It is great to find you on the net (although I am not a "net-head"). I have lost touch with you somewhat. I saw you in concert and fell in love with your music during the Committed to Holy Rolln' years. I love your old stuff (as well as the new)!!! I have recently introduced you to my sister-in-law and we are wanting to see you in concert. Do you make your way to Knoxville,TN much?? (Actually I saw you at Milligan College in Elizabethton,TN near Johnson City, TN several times)I hope that you had a great Christ-mas and a great start to 2002. Until I see you again.............

Dear Bryan ~ Here's hoping that you and your family had a VERY Merry Christmas!!! Thank you, sooo much, for making our Christmas special with your wonderful gift of music on Christmas Eve in Hesperia!! My husband's family, for the most part, are not Christians and NEVER take any time to talk about the true reason for celebrating Christmas (we don't even pray over our meal), so it was a very special treat to be able to begin our visit with them by coming to hear you sing and being a part of that service! I love your 'band from Japan', but was especially blessed to be able to hear you accompanied by a real "live" group of musicians this time, that was cool! And, they did a great job, as did you, AS ALWAYS!!! When we stopped to say 'hi' to you, after the service, as usual, my tongue got a bit ahead of my brain and, once again, I spoke more than I listened, said stupid things and forgot to say the things that I truly had wanted to say, so please forgive me for getting my usual 'jitters' and making a ding-dong of myself! ;) I really wanted to just tell you how much I enjoyed your music and what an awesome job you did, but you kinda threw me off when the first thing you said to my husband was 'Hey Garth!' ;) (That's okay, though, it was kinda fun teasin' him about that afterwards!) I know this is a difficult time for you, not knowing what the future holds for you and your career. I pray that the Lord will give you peace as you seek to see His will more clearly, but mainly I just want to let you know that, no matter what is down the road, you and your music have been SUCH a blessing to me!!! You have a fabulous voice and an awesome talent, and I am just sooo glad that you have shared that with all of us over the years!! I will try to continue to stay 'up' on what you are doing and hope to be able to see you perform in person on a regular basis, now that I have gotten 'connected' with a way to know when and where you will be. And, who knows, maybe our little church can even manage to raise that $12 we were talking about!! ;) Love ya', man, take care of yourself and have an awesome NEW year, okay?? Later! :)

I have seen you before on TBN and enjoyed your music. I just wanted to thank you for coming "home" to GCC for a personal performance. It was a very special Christmas eve-eve service for us all and we Love you! Your music and your message put the emphasis where it truly belongs this time of year. Christmas IS Jesus. We truly were blessed by your music, as well as amused with your playfulness. Please Please come back again soon! God Bless you and your whole family this holiday season. PS - I got both your Joy Ride and Christmas is Jesus CD's, so we can continue to enjoy the gift of music you have shared with us. Thanks Again.

Dear Bryan,My family and I have been listening to your 'Christmas is Jesus' CD a lot throught this holiday season. Your arrangements of the songs are truly inspired. Is there any way to purchase a piano book of these arrangements? I have searched the WEB and have had no luck. I play in a string quartet, and, with your permission, I would like to arrange some of these pieces for string quartet. It is evident in your music, especially your Christmas music and your 'My Utmost for Your Highest', that you truly love strings and symphony. By the way, I met you back in , I believe, 1981 when you were still with SCB at a concert in Minnesota called 'Sonshine'. I even have a picture of you and me together. I feel that there are very few inspired songwriters today, and that you are one of them.Nate

We're still hearing rave reviews from your concert here a couple of weeks ago. So many were blessed and encouraged. Just thought you should know that your impact has been far reaching. We can't begin to thank you enough. Guess I'll have to check in every month or so and remind you that you are being well used for all the stuff that really matters... (did you ever finish the "night before christmas" style song? you had just written the words on your way out to the east coast)

Bryan, I got turned on to you by my brother, I run sound and sing at the First United Methodist Church here at home. I sprung some of your music on them and they kept asking... who is that! Now that's all I run before the services. My wife and I would love for you to come close to home so we could hear you in person. God bless you and yours. Man has God blessed you! Kenneth

Hey Bryan! I don't know if there's ANY chance of getting an answer to this, but I have a little question for ya' ~ you mentioned in one of your recent NOODLES that you are practicing your Christmas music for the TWO days that you will be singing before Christmas. I see on the schedule that you will be in Hesperia on the 24th, and I know that, at one time, there was a listing for a gig on the 23rd, in Riverside. Is that still on, and if so, when and where will that be? My family and I will be down that way on the 23rd, and I would love to be able to come and hear you do your Christmas stuff in person!!! Please, if there's ANY way you can get the info to me, I would REALLY appreciate that! Take care, hope to see you, wherever you'll be, this Sunday!

Hi Bryan. Decided to kick back for a change and use the wwweb for something other than searching for neurobiology journal articles. Wondered what I would find with a dogpile search on the only Christian artist surviving in my CD collection (Well, I suppose that I ought to count Al Green as well but I don't have anything much of his after Truth'N Time). I was curious to know what you had been up to since Mercy. And when I found this website, I wanted to let you know that Anonymous Confessions... is one of my favourite albums. Ever. Not that I expect my opinion to be worth much anyway. Problem is, I'm an insane molecular biologist from the Howard Florey Institute in Australia (Howard Florey? - he is the guy actually responsible for the fact that we have penecillin for treating disease. Alexander FLeming had no clue what he was onto), and worst of all I am not even a Christian. So I'm kind of concerned, Bryan, at how you will take this information. I mean well. After scanning the Noodles, I wanted to let you know that even people on completely the other side of the world really appreciate your honest analysis of what it can be like to be a Christian (well, that, and your singing, and the funky songs, and your maniac sense of humour.) Maybe you can consider that sometime when you are playing live to a half-packed hall and you're not happy with your voice or the audience response or you're feeling unenthusiastic about the songs. I really hope you won't think that your Ministry hasn't quite been effective because I'm not saved, or anything else along those lines. So when are you coming out this way, man? I've read the guestbook, too, so I know I'm not the only one from this part of the world to ask you that question.Merry Christmas, Bryan!

Bryan, I am 24 years old and your music has been inspiring me since I was a little kid. I believe I have every album you have ever done and I even have the sweet comfort band lp (record lol) your music has walked me through some of the toughest times in my life. I also sing now and I wanted to say thanks for your inspiration and for being bold enough to be different. God Bless! And keep up those crazy, sweet, comforting and meaningful songs that bless so many people. You have an awesome voice and gift.luv Angel

I know you probably hear complimentary things all the time, after all, why would someone come to this site if they didn't already like you? But, here goes.......One of the very first CCM recordings I ever bought was SCB's first recording. I was an eighteen year old Air Force one-striper, and played it enough to drive my poor roommate half crazy. Over the years, I kept up with you, and found that a lot of what you had to say touched me, even through the worst of times. (As one of my friends would say---" you don't sing bad for a white person!" )Then, two years ago, my life changed forever----my sweet husband died of a sudden heart attack. I sometimes felt like I could hardly make it through the day. But, as strange as it may seem, your music was one of the things that God used to get me through the worst of it. I appreciate you letting Him use you. All I can say is thank you. Take care.

Hi, Bryan! I'm a Thirtysomething long-time fan of yours! :) My friends and hubby are really sick of hearing about how "Bryan Duncan is the best CCM artist around." So I just keep telling them anyway!! I was reading your noodles and saw that you're reading St. Augustine. One of my favorite quotes is his..."Those who sing pray twice." So true, brother! Enjoying JOYRIDE and The Old Christmas Albumn! Boy, I wish I could hear you sing "Angels" Live! "With peace on earth good will to men...WOOooo!"I saw you live in November 1999, (had to check my computer calendar...can't believe it has been that long)! You were complaining about how far Souderton/Telford was from the Philly airport...I was front row and you couldn't figure out where to set down your water glass so I held it for you. Ahhh yes, NOW you remember me!I just wanted to wish you and your family a wonderful celebration of God's incarnation and gift in His Son Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior! Your music has inspired, strengthened, encouraged and rocked my spirit through many of life's ups and downs. My three sons also enjoy your music so you know I'm learning them right! ;) I'm praying for you, Bryan.In Christ, Jill

Thanks, Bryan, for singing in Canandaigua, NY last week. My husband surprised me with those tickets and I've never sat in the front row. It was the best! I wore my old SCB t-shirt proudly. I'd love to see you four together again. Three songs at Kingdom Bound weren't enough. Anyway, take care of that family and that voice. Sincerely, Kathy J. Bloom

Hi Bryan! I attended the Northern Ca. concert on Dec. 9. I have been a fan of yours since the Sweet Comfort days and have always loved your unique voice. It was a treat to see you in such an intimate setting and I wanted to run up there and give you a big hug as you struggled through that first hour! I truly enjoyed the concert - the laughter was much needed - and your original Christmas songs, along with "Grown Up Christmas List", moved me deeply. I just wanted to encourage you - we all have off days and I hope you have not been too hard on yourself. I really appreciated your openness, as I have had my own struggles with ADD. Thanks for sharing your wonderful voice and talent, and for giving me a much needed spiritual lift. Stay on the "Joyride" and God will continue to bless you and use you! Happy Holidays and a Blessed New Year!!

Dear Bryan, I have your "My Utmost for His Highest" tape and have been listening to it for about three years. It helps me during the times that I really feel the need to be close to Christ. Lately that has been a lot. I work for two secular surgeons and it is very difficult to keep things in God's perspective when everyone else in the office is lost in darkness and think you are very wierd. Well, this is what Jesus said would happen and I am blessed that I am mildly "persecuted" for my beliefs. When I am overwhelmed by it all, I listen to my utmost tape and am just calmed and blessed by it. It reminds me to Whom I belong and why I am disliked and know that Jesus said the world would hate us because it hated Him first. I am still waiting to be able to see you in concert, you are one of my favorite artists and you really bless my life with your music. Hope to see you in Albuquerque sometime, I will definitely be there. If not, I will see you in heaven! God bless.Yonni F. aj528i.juno.com

Bryan, Just a quick note to let you know how much I enjoyed meeting you last Friday. Being a perfomer, I can certainly appreciate your fantastic voice, and the great way you use humor to draw the audience in. However, the thing that impressed me most was the way you and Dave treated myself and the other people who were affiliated with the concert, backstage away from the spotlight. You both treated us 'small' people like 'big' people, and I appreciate that. Great witness and great example! God bless!

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh! Just listened to Joyride at full throttle today in my office. I didn't think anything could top listening to you live right outside my door, noodling on the keyboard and singing "stuff" to warm up and sound check... it was an amazing experience this past Friday before your concert... one I'll never forget. (I'm smiling and thinking, "there's a genius on our platform and I get to be HERE when he plays and sings." Your new cd actually lived up to the joy of hearing you perform live. Awesome job - totally smokin tunes and arrangements. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you.Melody

My Dear Brother Bryan ~ **THANK YOU** again 4 a TRULY WONDERFUL evening of song, praise, love & laughter! U R definitely 1 of God's masterpieces! Your voice is magnificently made ~ so pleasing 2 the ear! He is using U, Brother, & I THANK Him 4 the blessing of U! It was such an incredible honour 2 meet with U after the show {U have NO idea how much it meant 2 me}! I only wish I could have stayed longer & talked {my husband was in such a rush because of the long 100+ mile ride back home}. If U recall, I am the [probably only] brown-skinned woman U met at the "Crosswinds Wesleyan Church" in Canandaigua {aka Upstate NY ~ smile} named "Sonya" {originally from Philadelphia} 4 whom U autographed a photo 4 my 71-year old Mom back in Philly who totally loves U as well!. {U signed it "Hi Sister Lois! God Loves you, Sweetie! BryanD"}. I wore all black~black leather jacket~topped off with a big, fancy black hat & U told me I looked familiar 2 U! I told "U" that U bear a strong resemblance 2 Jon Anderson of the progressive rock group "YES" ~ & U said "who's that?" :-) I must agree with another respondent here on the "Guest Book" in that the audience was indeed "dead" but it had NOTHING whatsoever 2 do with your performance cuz U were sMoKiN'! I belong 2 the Hillside Wesleyan Church here in Olean & out of the 150+ attendees each Sunday, I am 1 of the lonely few who engage in charasmatic worship {if U catch my drift}. Bryan, my brotha, U definitely GOT it, baby ~ "some people" just DON'T know how 2 GROOVE! I wuz SO TOTALLY diggin' U from the [next 2 the] back row! In fact, wanted 2 kick them people out of the front & steal their seats so I could stand up & shout! OH! Just 4 the record {as if U don't know by now} ~ it's "SILENT NIGHT, HOLY NIGHT, SHEPHERD'S QUAKE AT THY SIGHT" Um...I usually just fake the rest (((smile))) I know U have it by now ~ I'm just messin' wif ya! HEY! I sure wish U would come back this way again SOON & bless OUR congregation with your gift! I'm on the Worship Team at my church & can't WAIT 2 tell them tomorrow morning all about last night's show & meeting U! This is gettin' long, isn't it? Well, that's ME! And if U wanna know more about me {cuz if U remember last night, I told U I play keyboards & sing, 2}, keep in touch ~ e-mail me back {GoBillsShout@aol.com}. It would totally make my...well, day to start! MERRY CHRISTMAS! And to all a Good.....Afternoon! :-) Your Sister in Christ, *~Sonya~* :-) *** P.S. A message 2 the dude who wrote 2 Bryan praising his beautiful voice & compared him 2 greats like Todd [Rundgren], etc {yes, Todd is good {Bryan's far better}. I used 2 live in Upper Darby where Todd is from ~ It's outside of Philly. I'll pray 4 U! "BESIDES" all the God stuff? If it weren't 4 "GOD" neither BryanD {nor anyone} would be where they R today! **((PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW!))**

Hey Bryan and David - it was GREAT having you at Crosswinds in Canandaigua. Enjoyed your music, your wit and your cut loose, no holds barred spirit. Can't decide which was more of a blessing - hearing you in concert, or getting to know you a bit. We feel very honored to have had you with us. THANK YOU!

Thanks for being a part of our 21st wedding anniversary. Even though you said your voice was hurting and you couldn't hit all the high notes, it was an awesome treat to hear you live - and to hear where your songs came from. You are so honest about the struggle and bliss of walking with God. The honesty in your lyrics gave me hope more than once. When I worked night shift I was able to crank your CDs up, sharing the Good News with anyone in my hospital who ventured near the laboratory. Blue Skies and Slow Revival are my favorites. The credits on Joyride are a delight!

Dear Bryan Duncan, I was at your recent concert in Gumburo, DE. You may have thought it was a disaster but I thought it was the coolest concert I've ever been to. I was forced to come that night and I was thinking It was gonna be boring but it was the coolest concert I've ever been to! You are really funny! Well anyway, I hope your throat feels better!

Dear Bryan Duncan, I really enjoy your music. The lyrics the music and the overall style with which you write. I am fifteen and have written some songs of my own. You are one of my favorite singers ,don't ever retire. I also like your music because even though it seems there's a new style for music and musicians that's "in" every other month you don't change with it, but simply are yourself. Sincerely, Kyle

Hey Bryan,This is a voice from the past (almost 3o yrs)? Help! We are getting older aren't we. My name was Geri Zehrt, now I've married up here in Alaska, and am McCann. I saw you once abaout 10 yrs ago but you havn't been back since. I think there was trouble with the sound system blowing up during your song at Abbott Loop Christian Center in Anchorage or something trivial like that. I cam back stage, it was good to chat again. Any way I found some old pictures with Lisa Hanky & Bob, and Gregg Laurie, I forget all the names, a whole group of us together. I tried to email them to you. Did you get them? You were in the "Sweet Comfort Band" then. Now look where you are, off the charts! God has really blessed you, as you have blessed him and his people. I really appreciate you heart to keep this a ministry, and not just entertainment. You have kept humility with this success and spot light. I enjoy your web site and seeing the old S.C.B. photo! So glad you have gotten together again for some gigs. I remember our times at Co Co's too. I would love to hear from anyone out there who went to Riverside Calvary Chapel from about 1974 to 75 I will get these photo's to you, in the mail if you didn't get them.Hey we are having a concert up here just north of Anchorag, in Palmer. It will be the first state-wide, interdenominational concert up here. With local band and a few from out side. Would yo pray abaout coming? Maybe S.C.B. too? Leo Patillo is coming. This is a volunteer "mission" type of concert for all ages, a family event. We will get together your air fare and some cool Alaskan tourist things for you and your family. This is June 28th & 29th 2002. If you know of any other artist who might be interested in this, please pass the word and have them email me. The Lord is putting this together. People will travel hundres of miles to come, fly in from the villages etc., to go to this. No amusments parks and things up here you know. Our funky annual State fair with the faris wheel type rides, huge vegatbles, and farm animals draws thousands from all over our huge state. This will be a big deal. There's not a lot happeing up here in the wilderness. This will be an annual event. We will try to keep the bear and moose tied up and the cabin toasty! Just kidding. We will show you great Alaskan hospitaly. June is a great month to come. Lots of great fishing, and tours to do. A theme of Unity in Christ is drawing Catholics to Charasmatics together! You have a lot of fans up here, and we'd love to have you be our guest. It would be great to just hear from you again any way.God bless you brother,I am proud of you in ChristHere, there, or in the air!Geri (Zehrt) McCannkmccann@ideafmilies.org

Mr. Bryan Duncan...When I was younger and very involved in church, I began doing Pantomime. It was something I saw a church group do and decided to try it. I started out in my bedroom, with a few songs and just enough room to move around, and made up choreography. I only interpreted songs, and the first one I ever did was to "We All Need". I won an award at a talent show, which led me to continue with the mime techniques. I eventually toured with the band "Harvest" performing mime to their songs with them for a few months. I was emailing my brother today, and remembered how he and I used to sing this Bryan Duncan rap song all the time. I looked everywhere to find the lyrics so I could remind him. It was "Don't Ya Wanna Rap With Me". I stayed on the site for a while, looking at lyrics of other songs... It has been a very long time since I have been in church. My father, who is a minister, is a fan of yours and always has your newest cd's. At a time in my teen years when I hated the idea of listening to christian music, I still enjoyed yours. Especially the albums Blue Skies and Mercy. Now I'm grown and have my own family. Today I sat and read through old songs that I used to perform in church… on stage… in front of everyone! It has been so long now since I've even darkened the door... I read the lyrics to Blessed Are the Tears. Suddenly these memories of sitting alone in the dark in my room, at a time when my parents were divorcing and everything seemed wrong, and I would listen to that song and for a while things didn't seem so wrong anymore.Now this afternoon I sat in front of my computer, at my desk, at a time when things in my marriage seem wrong, and another baby is unexpectedly on the way, and my doctor wants to put me on Prozac, and everything just seems wrong, and in my head, I could hear the song playing. And without looking anymore I could remember the words. And for a moment, things didn’t seem so wrong. I have been trying all afternoon to find the cd at a Christian bookstore, and trying to find a Christian radio station so that I could call and request it but so far no luck. I just felt like I needed to let you know how much your music has affected my life. And at a time where I don’t go to church, I don’t have your cd’s anymore, and haven’t thought about it in so long… I went to your website to find song lyrics as a joke for my brother, and ended up being ministered to by a song that I could not even listen to, only remember. I just wanted to say thank you. You are so faithful. And today, your faithfulness to God helped me to remember how much I need to make him a bigger part of my own life.

Bryan, It was great running into you at the "Chili's Express" in the Delta terminal at Atlanta International Airport as my family and I were on our way back to Andersen Air Force Base, Guam. It reminded me of your "Rap Tune" as we had to stand in a "5 mile line to face security!" Anyway, I was the guy who "excitedly" whipped out his camcorder and started taping. Thanks for the chat. My wife and I have been listening to your music since your "Sweet Comfort Band (SCB)" days. In fact, I meant to inquire as to the significance of the person named "Valerie" on the SCB "Cutting Edge" album song of the same name(since it is my wife's name too). Keep "cranking out" the great music.God Bless, Capt AJ Cahue, US Air Force

Your voice sounds incredible to those gospel, r&b , and jazzy tunes and the musicianship is very good as well. Are you coming out with anything new in spanish again? I loved "Unidos en El".

Mr. Duncan, my wife and I have been fans of yours for at least 5 years. She and our children saw you in concert with Annointed in Cincinnati, and Debra (my Proverbs 31 wife) bought the "ONE VOICE" video for me, since I had to work. The family, truly enjoyed you and the fact that you are down to earth and a REAL person. I love the voice that God has blessed you with and the way you use it. Your voice is so distinctive, we can hear just a few notes and know that it's you. We (Debra and I) celebrate our anniversary by going to Gatlinburg, TN every September. This year I heard your "IF YOU PRAY FOR ME" from your Joy Ride CD, and instantly got hooked on it. The music, chorus jazzy/bluesy style...EVERYTHING about it made it a must buy! Debby had not heard it and thought I was being over zealous. To make a long story short, I searched all of the Christian outlet stores and Wal-mart in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Sevierville, for your CD. To my amazement and disbelief no one there (TN) had heard of you!! PLEASE TELL YOUR PUBLICIST, RECORD LABEL, PR PERSON or whom ever, to let that part of the US get to know one of God's best psalmists!!! We were also pleasantly surprised to hear Darwin Hobbs, he's a former member of our church, and it is great to see/hear him doing well and keeping such good company. We hope to see coming to Cincinnati again, soon. Thank you and may God's favor and blessings fall abundantly upon you and your family.

Unfortunatly over the years I lost track of him untill just resently I've been buying all his CD's that I've missed over the years, I need about 3 more to complete his collection, they've all been Excellent. once I get all caught up I'm planning on keeping it that way.

October 23, 2001 Dear Bryan, When I saw you at Calvary Chapel in Philadelphia, I really wanted to say the following; at times when I'm inspired to write lyrics and music, I hear it before I write it. When I hear it, our voices are harmonizing together! The first time it happened was at 3:00 am. I entitled it "Walkin' by Faith". Ever since that first time, it's been happening again and again! I believe God is tryin' to tell me something. Another thing I wanted to tell you was my testimony about how one of your songs nade a difference in my life; it all started when I was feeling doubts and troubles inside me one night. My family and I had so many problems in our house and I didn't have many friends. That is one thing I was praying for; a good friend. I heard on 990 WZZD that one of your songs was comin' up next to play. "Well, I wonder what this one is," I thought. The song was "Things are Gonna Change" and it really helped me a lot! From then on when that song re- minded me, I prayed and believed that things were gonna change and sure enough, they did!! I joined in a church where I now have lots of friends and a lot of things in our house are now fixed. God spoke through you that night and I was so touched, my heart became light. You've been such a blessing to me since '97 when I first heard about you and I thank God for you. I hope and pray that you'll take the time to respond to my message because this has been on me a couple of years and I don't know what else to do. PLEASE respond soon. I'll be praying for you and I wish you and your family well. Your sister in Christ, Tiffany

You've been such a blessing to me since '97 when I first heard about you and I thank God for you. I hope and pray that you'll take the time to respond to my message because this has been on me a couple of years and I don't know what else to do. PLEASE respond soon. I'll be praying for you and I wish you and your family well. Your sister in Christ, Tiffany

Great hearing you at Daybreak today. Even greater following that with 18 holes at the Bridges with you and Greg. Topped it off with some quality time with my wife, Miles Davis and John Coltrane. What a day! God is good.

Bryan ~ Don't know if you're reading these or not, but just in case ~ We met a couple of months ago, in Tustin I think, I had all the kids, they were sitting on the front row, requesting 'Don'tcha Wanna Rap?', I was wearing a Garth Brooks T-shirt, my daughter was wearing my old 'SCB' shirt, you gave me one of yours ~ anyway, been a bit of a dry spell, with your noodles, was wondering if everything was okay with you, very happy to see you back, 'fresh', and with a very cool new outlook on things!! God is using these times to bless so many of us in so many ways, those who are open, seeking, and willing to 'get' the lessons He has for us in all of this. Anyway... guess what?? I've been wanting to introduce Garth to your music for some time now, saw him in Hollywood a couple of nights ago, he made a special effort to say 'hi' to my 'gang', I didn't have my 'Strong Medicine' with me, which is my favorite and the one I wanted to give him, so I gave him 'My Utmost...' and 'Joyride' instead! I know you probably couldn't care less, but I'm just sooo thrilled to be able to share my very favorite CCM artist with my very favorite Country (although I consider him much more than just country) artist!!! And I just wanted to share that with you. BTW, maybe I could introduce you to some of his cool, new music. He has a new 'single' CD out, actually has three songs on it, called 'Call Me Claus'. Long story, but it has to do with a new TV movie, with Whoopie Goldberg, coming out for this holiday season. Anyway, two, if not three, pretty cool songs. Check it out. Oh, and, I consider you to be way more than just CCM, as well! ;) Take care of yourself, man, I look forward to seeing you again some day, maybe we can actually 'talk' a bit next time. God Bless!!! :)

Hi Bryan! I'm one of your biggest fans. I've been listening to your music since you first started your solo career. I'v e seen you in concert at least six times and have met you in person when you came to Phoenix. My favorite album has to be your "Mercy" album. On your current album "Joyride" my favorite song is "Maybe I'm Amazed." I look forward to hearing the new album you are currrently working on.

I have enjoyed your music for many years, our kids grew up listening to it; so we all came as a family to hear you. Thank you for sharing your talent and gifts with us and the church family around the world. May God Bless and keep you and your family. Maynard

Back in 1989, I was working at a Baptist Retreat Camp in Alabama called Shocco Springs (what a summer). One of the other workers named Sammy Turner turned me on to your music. He was my prayer partner one week & made me a tape called 'Songz U Dig'. Your song 'Don't Ya Wanna Rap' was on it. I can still sing every word just like I could then. I haven't missed any cd's or tapes since. I picked up Joyride yesterday while shopping for my wife a birthday present (yeah, I know, I got me something on her birthday :). I just want you to know, you have had a great impact in my life & continue to do so today. I have never had an opportunity to see you in concert, but I know that will change one day, I'm sure of it. Thank you for your devotion to your faith in doing what God has planed for you to do, you and your music are truly a blessing. God Bless You.

A "Candle" station wakes me up each morning when my alarm goes off. I was awakened by Bryan's rendition of "Maybe I'm Amazed." This song so touched my spririt that it brought tears to my eyes. God's grace is amazing and I went in search of an artist (Bryan) that I'd never heard before. I found Joyride and all these other great things about him. Not only that: within this collection, I found Bryan collaborating with Donnie McClurkin (one of the other spirit-filled beings touching my soul these days). Paul McCartney's song "Maybe I'm Amazed" has always been a favorite of mine and, as I listen to this version, I realize that I never had a "person" I was amazed by. God truly amazes me and He is doing great things in my life right now. Thank you, Bryan, for this wonderful form of praise, for I lift my voice with you each time I listen to this song. The entire collection is so wonderful. I am glad I found you (you and I are even the same age - where have I been?). I don't believe in coincidences, so therefore, I also thank God for you. Who knows? Maybe I'll be inspired to write you a song to sing in praise one day too!

We just love your music! I saw your concert for the first time on October 13, 2001, at Bremerton at the Roxy Theater and I just LOVED it. You are such a terrific performer. My husband grew up in California and so he's seen you in concert before, but for me this was my first. Our two year old son was there too and he enjoyed it too. Thank-you for that beautiful concert. Take care and God Bless You!!!

Dear Bryan, Man!! I can't believe I missed the Cornerstone concert in San Antonio!! Maybe next time. I saw you in concert in Dallas back in the 80's but you had a bad case of laryngitis. You still managed to minister with audience participation though. I wanted you to know that when your song, "A Child's Love" first came out it stuck with me even though I didn't have any children. Now that I do it really hits home. I bought "Joyride" this weekend and my 11 year old likes it. It's good, clean joyful music for tender ears. My husband and I like it too. Thanks for all you do and God bless your family.

I have almost every album of yours, but I never had the oppertunity to join you in concert (maybe becouse I'm in Germany. It would be a pleasure for me and thousends of german christians to have you here in Germany or europe. Please let me know of it. Thanks, God bless you.

You know, the one who was too shy to come out and ask if it was really you, so one of my friends had to break the ice for me. Anyway, it was awesome meeting you. My mom and I are HUGE fans! You were one of the great voices out there who got me into Christian music. Thank you! I pray that God will continue to bless your ministry! Angela

Brian- I am not sure if you read this email or not but it is worth a try. I was recently at yourconcert at Eastlake Community Church in San Diego and it was amazing. My son and family had sucha great time, my only regret was not bringing more guests. I am writing to ask if you would consider giving a benefit concert at my sons private Christian school. We are hoping to raise money to send our 5th and 6th graders to the East Coast to learn about our nations history. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity as many of our school children have never been out of state. This experience may influence our future leaders by introducing our children to this environment. Being at a smallschool, we are inundated with out of pocket costs, as our school gets no governmentfunding. We need to raise a substantial amount in order to make this possible. We as a Parent Group would like to know if you would be interested in singing at an event like this where we couldraise donations as part of a ticket cost. I know looking at your calendaryou will be here in San Diego again, which is where our school is. Anythought to this would be greatly appreciated. Please email me back at your convenience. God blesses us all daily and he has certainlyblessed you with your voice. It was a pleasure seeing you perform.Cindy

Well, I "reviewed" the Chula Vista concert on the 440 board, so I won't do it again here. It will suffice to say that it was AMAZING! Burce and Brian are jealous because they couldn't be there-one recovering from surgery, and the other on a ship with the Navy. My step granddaughter, Ashley, loved it. She had never heard any of your music, so last night was a great intro for her. Rachel's picture with her souvienir flag is already framed and hanging in her room. God is doing a visible work in you right now...its wonderful that you are so honest in sharing it with all of us. You continue to be in our prayers as you minister to God's people...we love your music, and we love you.Bruce and Debbi, Brian and Sarah, Ashley, and Rachel-the Stawicki and Niemi families

Hi Bryan,Its me Rick, again. (I am starting to feel like a pest) I have been reading your noodles quite a bit this Thanksgiving weekend (Canada). I am suppose to be studying for my Windows 2000 Certification Accel Exam but I keep straying back to your noodles. I guess the reason I am doing this is because you have been a part of my life for so long but yet I know so little about you. I like the fact that I can get to know you at a deeper level. I appreciate the honesty and realness you show in concert as well as in your noodles. To me I think a christian artist shouldn't be superficial on stage and always make it seem like things are always perfect. I know because I was a musician on the road for 12 years myself. Of course I always had my BD and SCB tapes with me. They were great warm ups accept when I wore myself out trying to keep up to you. Anyways I left a post on the 4-40 club message board. Its a report on my take of the Abbotsford Concert. Don't worry, Its all good. I just want to say I appreciate your honesty and sincerity both on and off the stage. You say it the way it is in your industry and there's nothing wrong with that. Like you said, we all have our up's and down's. Your testemony is in your songs. I hear it, feel it, and most of all read it between lines written in the words. Anyways enough for now. this is my third posting.Your's in christRick Havinga - Abbotsford, BC

We released a Christmas CD last year and I am planning to send you that as well. When we met at a concert in my state of MO, you mentioned that your parents liked our CD's.You were so nice and gracious in speaking with your fans that I gained a whole new respect for you. I know how it is after a concert...I just want to get a Pepsi, some pizza and some sleep! It is hard to greet hundreds and smile that long....but you did it. Just a symbol of how you are a pro on and OFF the stage.Thank you again for ALL of your wonderful music....I own everything you have ever done and I look forward to more CD's in the future.Peace,Kipp BucknerThe Gas House Gang

Hi Bryan. Thanks for blessing me all these years with your multi-talent and ministry! I've seen you many times in concert and hope for many more. Bryan, my mother, who is 79 years old, has recently caught on to Contemporary Christian Music (isn't that great) - and guess what - YOU ARE HER FAVORITE. I am trying to arrange for her to come with me and see you on October 26 in Sarasota. Would it be possible that you are staying afterward to sign autographs, meet/greet fans? It would so brighten her life to meet you in person (and I promise she would brighten yours too! she is a gem who absolutely radiates love)...If not, if there is ever a time that you are in Ft. Myers FL, she plays piano on Friday and Saturday evenings and holidays at Portofino Restaurant at the Sanibel Inn, Sanibel Island. Her name is Jean Calamici; she 'aint no grandma playing chopsticks'! Her talent, too, is a blessing to all who hear her play. I know you are busy, but I hope that if you get to read this you will reply - thanks again Bryan and God bless you. See you on October 26, Laurie

Hey Bryan, How about a "Reunion CD"? That would be the next best thing since I haven't heard of a reunion concer in Italy. By the way, I was in a gelato shop (Italian ice cream) here recently and in the middle of a run of Italian pop songs, they played one of yours---I was stunned! I spent a couple of days with you in November 1985 when you came to Mobile College in Alabama. My how the time has flown by. I'm now an US Air Force Chaplain in Italy--life is good! Thanks for the music, would love to see the "pumpkin Duncan"!

I grew up on all of your music. My Dad is a big fan of yours just as I am. I remembering hearing your tunes in the days when I was only a child. I am only eighteen years old, so it was soon after you went solo. My dad and I own thirteen of your albums. The first one we bought was "Holy Rollin" back in the eighties and we've added all of them since then. My dad just bought the Joyride CD. We have tapes of your albums that show the wear of the years of playing. Your music will always be popular in my house. Truthful and deep lyrics and great beats keep us coming back for more. My dad just found this website. We were excited to read your Nifty Noodle entry when you came down to New Orleans(Metairie). Both my dad and I were in attendance that first night. When I first heard that you were coming, my dad wasted no time in buying our tickets. We both thouroughly enjoyed the concert. We only wished you could have played all of your songs, but then that would of taken hours maybe even days. I know almost everyone of your songs by heart. Keep coming with the awesome tunes and come back to New Orleans for the good ole cajun cuisine. You are definetly right about not being able to stop eating. I'm there with yo on that one.Toodles!

You're awesome. It's a quarter to one in the morning and regardless that I have to get up early to go to work, I'm captivated by your experiences in Nifty Noodles. Why do you have so many problems with the small festivals? Is there any reason why you couldn't pack First Baptist Church of Raytown or Kemper Arena? Why not pack Sandstone? A gift such as yours has to attract millions. I have never made a trip to the Christian book store for cds until I heard your song "When you Pray for Me" on the radio. I ended up purchasing Joyride and Seventeen Timeless Classics. They have become my quiet time...I could lose myself in your music forever. And honestly, I have done so every night since I purchased them over one month ago. Forever is a long time. Forever it is. You're awesome.

Hey Bryan, I don't know if you remember the concert that you did earlier in September At the Evangel Church in Scotch Plains, but My mom was the lady who shouted out "Mr. Baily's Dawter" instead of daughter and you kinda made fun of her. My mom is from "Joysey" so what do you expect? I can't wait for the next concert in either Nutley or Scotch Plains. I don't know if you ever have "free time" but, I am reading a book series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, Called "Left Behind". It is a really great series dealing with the rapture, and how it could happen in our time. If you ever have a chance to, read the books, you'll love it!

Brian,I'm a huge fan. There is no christian music that touches my heart like your's. I can't count the number of times I've been hurting and put on one of your CD's.Before it finished,I was crying and praising our Lord. Bryan your music means more to me than I can say. I have all of your albums on CD or tape. As a side note, I'm 45 years old and a guitar player since the age of 4. I'd love the opprtunity to play with you one time. I live in central Illinois and would like that opportunity if your ever in the area. I'd like to receive emails from you from time to time as your music has meant so much to me in my walk with Christ. I think of you as a close christian friend. I will continue to listen and share your music with all my friends. I've seen you a couple of times in concert. One concert I'm sure you remember. At Rockome Gardens in Arthur, IL (the home of the amish) through WBGL Radio. Hope to see you in cocert in our area real soon. Jim Walls

Hey Bryan, I am 18 years old. I first heard of you when Iwas listening to one of the WoW Cd's. I first saw you in concert at the Summer Jam in Birmingham, Alabama at the Boutwell Auditorium. SHINE and some others were there also. I was so blessed by your music. One night I was watching TBN and you came on; just the sound of your voice blessed me.I could tell that God was using you. God has given me a gift of singing as well, and just hearing others sing for HIM blesses me. I sing at church every time I get the opportunity to. Even though I haven't cut a record or anything like that I know that God is still going to use me.Maybe one day I will be apart of a concert with you and other christian artists. My dream is to do what God wants.And I know that He wants me to sing. That is my Passion.God is so Awesome. Just knowing that He is using us to glorify Him is so amazing. Keep on Singing for Him!!

Bryan, I managed to talk my husband into coming to your concert at Calvary Chapel last night and he loved it! We both did. Despite your cold, the concert was encouraging to us both. I've been listening to your music for about the last 18 years. Growing up a PK myself I've really related to your lyrics, loved the music, and your voice! I guess you could saw I grew up with you. My 4 year old now jams in the mirror with your music. Keep on praising the Lord!

Bryan, I was really sorry to see you feeling so badly tonight. I was praying for your voice to hold out and could feel it with you every time you winced. Despite the small setbacks, it was still a great show;you were able to grasp the elusive"high" notes and you shed a tremendous amount of encouragement to me. God used you to lift me up tonight. I was really down in the dumps and angry at God lately. You helped remember how much God loves me. I was able to share my disappointments with him and it was you who prompted me to do so....Thanks,Keep doin what you're doin' God is really using your voice, your wit and your A.D.D. Love, Judy

Hey Bryan, Your music is head and shoulders above the rest. You continue to be innovative and insightful in your lyrics. I have seen you in Cali. when I was little, NC a couple years ago, Estes Park summer 2000 where I talked to you backstage about how I entered the competition there singing "When I turn to You" and finally my girlfriend and I drove 4 hours to see you in Vienna at Jammin' Java. It was beyond awesome. I talked to you after the first show and gave you some pictures of you in NC with Larry and the crew of club 440. Anyways!! I was just hoping that there was some way to get the tracks for "Maybe I'm Amazed," "Strollin'," and "I'd Like to Thank You Jesus." I sing in church all the time and these songs are beyond great. Thank you so much for all you have done with your career and the remarkable gift God has given you. Just remember that "you'll always have Jesus." Thank you again B.

But mostly I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your thoughts on the attacks, your noodles are always refreshing and inspiring, in one way or another, regardless of what the topic is or your mood, but this one was especially worth reading. THANKS for sharing!!! Take care!

My wife and I drove 2 1/2 hours to Cleveland to see Bryan @ Seekers Coffee House. Our first time, did'nt know what to expect. 90 degrees in the place and Bryan was incredible. Not a bad rendition in the whole show. Awestruck at his humor and love of life and the Lord. If the next nights show was closer we would have driven, but Jersey is a bit too far. Thanks Bryan.God Bless,Chris Case

Dear Bryan, All our family enjoys your music very much. not only did the Lord Jesus blessed you with a beautiful voice but he blessed you with full inspiration for the awsome lyrics that you use in your music. Our 12 year as well as our 4 year old know mostly all lyrics of your music. we own various cds and cassetts. and we enjoy all of them. I think it was in 1997 when we met you at the Lighthouse bookstore in Long Beach Ca. You were running late we waited because our son joel our 12 year old now wanted to met you. Thank you for taking the time to say Hello to us and for signing my son's cap in the parking lot. May the Lord continue to Bless you and your family and thank's for the awsome music which glorifys our Lord Jesus Christ.

Saw you at Seekers Coffee House last Friday. Haven't seen you in concert since about '85, so I was really looking forward to it. I wasn't disappointed. I especially enjoyed the small gathering. I also appreciate you hanging in there even when the sweat was dripping like a waterfall. What a ministry! I'm amazed by your "Noodles". Keep the honesty coming, we need more of that. Thanks, Roberta

Just wanted to say thanks for doing a show in such an intimate setting. I have no idea how often you do that sort of thing but it was wonderful! God has truly blessed you with an incredible voice and you serve Him well with it! Thanks! Jackie

My friends and i saw you @ Seekers, and i had such a good time, thank you Brian. my friends wife sheepishly came up at the end and asked if she could have your number to ask you some things. she was crushed that she even did that, but her intentions where good. see her husband and i are players for our churches worship team. he as a drummer and i as the keyboard player. we love to play but would love an opportunity to play for other people as well, and around cleveland, though it is a great city, there are not a lot of christian acts to back and belive in. she was hoping that you might have a suggestion or two of how we might get involved in large projects. even if we had to relocate. see, we even thought of moving south to Nashville, or Henderson just to be closer to the gigs. i hope that she did not offend you, it is just we do not get a chance to talk to many people who know, and you were right there. she/we were so excited about the show (the 9:30 show) and felt that this might be the only chance. you said to go to the guestbook and sign in and that was what i thought we better do. we were the guys from Japan (not really) and would appreciate anything that you might do to help in this road we have chosen. we both have played forever and between us have done 30 records and have played the live stuff for many years. thanks Brian for your time and for the show, i so appreciate it at this time. with all humblness, your friend tim

Byran, the first time I saw you in concert was 1985? with Randy Stonehill & you were releasing Have Yourself Commited, I have been a fan ever since. I also saw you in Melbourne when you tripped up on your mike & forgot the words to the songs, but I didn't care b/c I came to see you not the Australian guy Steve Grace (who I had never heard of!). When are you coming back & doing a proper concert? Love ALL your music, it has been a blessing to my life over these past 17 or so years, your ace & God has really used you to encourage & inspire us in our walk. regards R

It was the first time at one of your shows and I just want you to know I enjoyed myself and can't wait to see you again. You're funny too! I also have ADD and covered it up with drugs and alcohol for years which of course only made it worse. Thanks for being so open with your fans about the real you and your struggles.

Hey Bryan! What up? Okay....... do you sing all those high notes in your lower register or do you have what my voice teacher calls a joined register that makes it sound like you are singing in your lower register but is acctually a mixed voice of both your lower and upper registers? I need to know as i have been arguing with my brother over this for weeks! My teacher says that I have a 3 1/2 octave range but that i have misusung my voice forever and have been singing louder to hit the higher notes which is incorrect and damaging over time. He says with work I can strengthen the two voices so there is no break between them.( I was only trying to sound like you )So tell me how you do it man! You would not believe how many times I have stood in front of the stereo and tried to sing yours and Mathew Wards Songs. You guys are killing me! So write me back and let me know. When I have this down can I come tour with you? How about a back up singer? COME ON BRO!!!! Me and you man! Whoo hooo !! Okay love you man! "Grace To You" Sean BPS. I am sending you a copy of my c/d when it is finished, Hope you like it! Write me back about the question I asked okay?

Suddenly you are a lot more complicated for me. Initially captivated by “Strolling On The Water,” I have since been acquiring your albums and enjoying them immensely - the lyrics, your gift for singing, the great musicians and production. I have more albums by you than any other musician or group. It has been a simple joy to listen to your music, even when a song has brought me to tears. However, recently I’ve seen you in concert and have visited your website, both for the first time. Consequently I’m wrestling with some thoughts I feel a need to convey.I came to see you on August 20th in Charlotte for the blessing and enjoyment I expected the experience would be, both for me and the others I invited along. And I wanted to encourage you in your ministry. Afterwards I bought three more of your albums (purposely to help support you) and waited in line to speak with you briefly, just to try to give you a word of encouragement. You seemed distracted (not too surprising since it must be difficult to repeatedly meet and speak with so many strangers – and you could be struggling with a host of personal issues), so I kept it brief (about 1 minute) and then left for the drive home. A few days later I checked out your website, including Nifty Noodles. There you say your Charlotte experience was hard, and you seem to be criticizing the audience for not responding satisfactorily to your monologues. This took me aback, but as I read through more of your Noodles I realized that you seem perhaps a bit too open with your complaints about audiences, venues, stage managers and more. True, you also speak openly about many things - your sorrows, thanksgivings, doubts, appreciations and many more personal perspectives. These frank admissions and observations certainly reveal more to the world about Bryan Duncan than is readily apparent about most Christians in the public spotlight, and thus can be helpful for those (including me) who appreciate knowing more about you and recognizing that they/we are not alone in the struggles and joys in this life of faith. However, there are also comments that seem a bit unforgiving – and I don’t think such remarks left hanging out for the world to see do much to build up anyone.None of us is perfect. We all blow it far too often; I know I do. The stage manager, audience, sound mixer, me – we are all a bunch of sinners, stepping on each others toes even when we want to do good. But many of us at your concerts are also your eternal family and we probably wouldn’t be there if we didn’t share the love and grace of Christ. And many of us love you and are grateful beyond expression for all you have given us through your music. For your sake, and for those closest to you, I hope you will be able to relax a bit more and not take the bumps in the road personally. I would go to see you in concert again tomorrow if I could, but maybe you would do well to take a sabbatical from performing. Just a thought – no divine inspiration as far as I know. God will let you know His will.I started by saying you have become more complicated for me. That’s not a bad thing. It was easier to just know, enjoy, and be blessed by your albums than to think about and try to communicate appropriately in this limited space the issues I’m touching upon. But I’d rather have complicated, multi-dimensional reality than simply a two-dimensional image of a tunesmith on the cover of his CDs, no matter how wonderful the music.Grace and peace to you Bryan. Philippians 1:6 “…he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”Pr 19:11; 1 Cor 13:4-5; 1 Pet 2:19-23, 4:8P.S. Excellent website!

Hello Bryan. Saw you in San Antonio at Cornerstone Church. Thanks for taking the time to visit with us in the autograph line. My sister and mother traveled 400 miles from Louisiana to attend the concert. Perhaps you remember speaking with my sister, Billie, about the death of her 3 year old, Antonio, last year, and the significance of your song, "You Don't Leave Me Lonely." I just want to tell you that your music has been a ministry to Billie during this difficult time and actually having the pleasure of attending your concert was wonderful. Thanks again and God Bless.

Hey Bryan! I was just remembering SCC and thought i would check and see if you had mp3's out in cyberland. And I am thrilled to see your success! I remember when we use to sneak into the music room and you would play the piano and sing...and i would listen. You dated my roommate. And later dated my best friend. I cant even count the times I heard "Bryan is sooo cute". Anyway..keeping it short as you have hundreds of these things to read. Congrats on your success. I remember you when...

Hey Bry!!Love your gift, love your work, love the Lord! Your music has been a background tempo to my life - in the early 80's when I was dating all these nice Christian girls who God didn't have planned for me, (actually went to your concert (on a date!!) in Nampa Idaho in 86 or 87 - Holy Rollin! It was awesome!) Then I met my wife, who was NOT a Christian, but praise God BECAME a Christian due to His plan for her!! When the complicated church sermons didn't do it for her, your music DID!! And you know what, your music has been there all along, through all our phases of life- and really touched her AND me! AND NOW all 4 of my kids rock out to Bryan D!! It makes me feel so good to see them in the back of my minivan singing along to your songs! We play your Christmas album 24-7 from Nov 26 to Dec 26!KEEP IT UP!! We hope to come out and see you in Chattanooga on Oct 13! I would love for you to meet my familyGOD BLESS YOU!! Dr Scott

Hi Bryan, I have listened to your music for 13 years and I've got to say that my life has never been the same since "A friend in you". I never ever thought I would meet you - I have never been to one of your concerts. Now that I have a computer and know where to find your website, I will keep track and checkout when you will come to Australia next. Bryan I just want you to know that much of your music has helped shape my life and I hope one day to be able to tell you in person. From Down Under - Ben

Will patiently wait for that day. We are located close to South Bend, IN. We were church starters for the North American Mission Board and are not in full time ministry in Niles. I love your voice and lyrics. May God continue to bless you with such a wonderful gift. I have a tape of my own, would love to share it if this is possible.

Hi Bryan,I was in Bloomington, Illinois on a business trip 8/11/01, and was flipping channels on the radio trying to find a Christian station, and I heard about your tent concert in Normal. I was so glad to experience your life-changing ministry that night. My friend, Bill & I saw you at Calvary Temple in Springfield, IL some time back, and it was my first time to see you "live". We still talk about how that concert changed our lives. We are more committed to the Lord, and walk more freely in His grace. We take Him more seriously, and life a bit less "serious". Thank you, my brother for using your gift(s) to bless so many!. God Bless you and your family.

Dear Mr. Duncan:I thank God for you and your wonderful ministry. I am a relatively new christian who recently purchase four of your albums : My utmost for His highest; The last time I was here; Blue Skies and Whistlin' In The Dark. I listen to your songs all day long. I have many favorites but my most favorite song is "Bryan's Hymn (When I turn to you)" because it expresses my own prayer of thanks to the Lord for saving me. I would love to sing it at my church some day (since I know it by heart) however, I cannot find a soundtrack anywhere in the Miami area. Can you let me know how to get the soundtracks of your songs or the music sheet of this particular song, Bryan's Hymn. I thank God for you and the beautiful vocal style He has given you. I've never been to your concert but as soon as you perform in the Miami area, I promise myself to be in the audience.Keep up the good work and may our Father continue to bless you. Thank you.

We just returned from your concert in Charlotte, NC at P63 at Hickory Grove Baptist North campus...YOU WERE GREAT!! We were right on the front row with our college age daughter, Suzy, and her roommate, Summer. In fact, when our 5 year old, Hannah, woke up this morning, her first words were, "Mommy, that was a GREAT concert last night, wasn't it!!??!!"My husband, Paul, has every CD of yours, except your new one. We are working on that! Thank you for sharing your talents and humor and AMAZING stage presence with us!!We pray that God will continue to bless your ministry! We are in music ministry at our church...the whole family. It is hard sometimes to know if you are really getting through, but God promises that His Word will not return void...and just from my experience last night, GOD IS USING YOU! That one song about "No you won't! YES, I WILL!!" really spoke to me! I deal with that inside voice stuff ALOT! Keep on keepin' on! God bless you...Aimee Pence

I just want to tell you to hang in there. I know that you are quite resilient but hear me out D. I've promoted several of your shows Bryan, and I remember when the contract rider was a Yamaha CP 80 and some four by fours to raise the piano up to playing level. I mention this because I enjoy the noodles and in the midst of all that festival "insanity" (how's that for a euphemism?!) and what not, better things are ahead for you. Moses went from a prince to a wandering shepherd. In that forty years he become lost of his own confidence but found God and subsequently, the power that comes from not necessarily knowing the next step but knowing that thru it all his sufferings were purposed by God for something far greater than the comprehension of a man and far beyond the reach of even an ambitious king.

Hey Bryan! Don't know if you read the responses to your 'noodles', over at the 'place to be' forums or not, but that's where I first started reading your noodles, a month or two ago. Left a nice long note there for you, under the name 'Preacher's Kid'. A/G, so you can relate, right?ANYWHO...Here I am again, up till those wee hours, reading some of your older noodles, I've made it through October last year, 'bout half way, and totally lovin' it!! I just want you to know how cool I think it is, the way you've opened yourself up like that, with the noodles. I'm really enjoying getting to know about you and your world through them, seeing the music world through the artist's eyes and all. I can relate, SOOOOOOO much, not to the artist stuff, but just a lot of things in your attitude towards life, music, Christianity, the UN-realness of it sometimes, if you know what I mean. You're real and I love it!!! I've had a lot of 'stuff' going on in my life over the past couple of years, including an awesome spiritual 'breakthrough' just this past February. It's pretty amazing to realize that God reached me, not THROUGH the church, but IN SPITE of it, ya' know??? Being the PK and all, steeped in all that 'knowledge', it was the messages in some secular, country music that reached out and thumped me on the head and woke me up to what it's all about, helped the 'message' make it's way from my head to my heart, FINALLY!!! No hard feelings to my parents or anything, they are great people and all, but I've just come to understand that there is ministry and truth in some pretty unsuspecting places, including that secular music world that they tried so hard to shield me from when I was growing up. No offense to you or to CCM, I hope you understand that, your music has always meant a lot to me too. Just that I think I see in your noodles a similar attitude towards a lot of what CCM has become, especially when you talk about just letting the songs speak the truth, not needing to 'preach' at the audience or explain your life and your faith to them.Well, I missed Hume Lake and feel pretty guilty about that, since I said I was gonna be there (it's not far from where I live.) I guess you could say I got an offer I couldn't refuse. One of my very best 'Garthnutt' friends, from Wyoming, offered to pay my expenses to go to Nashville that weekend, to attend a little 'Garthnutts' convention that I had assumed I couldn't really plan on attending. It wasn't about 'Garth', just so you know it wasn't 'the competition', it was just about being with good friends and having a great time for a few days. And, I love Nashville, it feels like home to me whenever I get to be there. Like I said, an offer I just couldn't refuse. Sorry.Still hoping to see you perform sometime in the near future, either Rancho Santa Margarita or maybe Auburn, not sure yet.BTW, very cool to hear that you dressed up in the 'Garth' look for that one show, I CAN'T WAIT to see what you look like in a cowboy hat!!!!!!! Maybe you could just bring it with you, for my sake, when you do RSM. Let me know, and I will be SURE to be there! ;)Well, guess that's enough of MY 'noodlin'' for now. BTW, been listening to 'Joyride' all night, while reading your stuff, gettin' to know it, AWESOME, as usual! But, whatever happened to the trampoline pic??? Okay, okay, I'm goin'! Take care, let us know if you're gonna bring the SCB reunion to California or not, okay??? That would be just WAY to much fun to go to!!! Yeah, yeah, I'm outta here! G'nite!!! :)DeeDee (aka Preacher's Kid, The 'D' Mom, MountainGirlCrazy4Garth, or MountainGirlCRAZY4Bryan, if it makes ya' feel better! ;) )

Hey Bryand, i have done radio for a couple of years and i wanted so badly to tee up an interview with you.You are an awesome artist. You know , i heard a preacher say that only God and the things of God are Awesome. "i agree " But you are Awesome. The Lord certainly moves through you in your music. I praise God for your Ministry. The song "Don't look back has been ministry to my soul " Bless God. I am so excited to hear your song on the radio in the Car. My wife was saying ,"that's Bryand and i was saying oh no, but it was the latest release . Bless God for a Man of God.Praise The Lord.

Hi Bryan,don't be so down on yourself! Your music has inspired so many people...me included! My bestfriend, who is now with the Lord, introduced me to your music. The lyrics of your songs and the sincerity of emotion spoke to my heart. Your music and my girlfriend's patience and love helped me find my way to God. Please remember that although you are not playing to packed stadiums, you are still able to reach those struggling to find a way to Christ!

Hey Bryan, Sorry you've been having a rough time of it lately. I'll be praying for ya. Unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to catch any of the reunion. Hopefully you guys can get together for a So. Cal homecoming. I can still remember the last concert at whatever college stadium it was with Rich Bueller and the new opening act, Steve Camp. Anyhow, God Bless all those festival promoters for ministering to you in their special way. Just remember, The last shall be first and the first shall be last.

Okay, it's Lisa again, and I don't know what I keep hitting, but it keeps submitting my note before I'm done. As I said, we just saw you in Estes Park, and you didn't have much of a voice that night. I understand now that I've read the recent nifty noodles, but I was disappointed since we haven't seen you in years, and I don't think you come to Colorado that often. You are my favorite singer, and your music is so encouraging. Do you think you could come back sometime to do your own concert? Anyway, remember, everyone, God loves you more than you can ever imagine, and He is in control - trust Him! Sincerely, Lisa Cain

Bryan, I became a Christian in the summer of '83 and was really into secular music and knew nothing of Christian music but started searching and listening and right from the beginning one band stood out and that band was SCB and the man with the most amazing voice I had ever heard. Here I am 18 years later still being amazed by that voice and the wonderful musical styles that come with it. My personal favorites are SCB's "Cutting Edge" and in my opinion one of the best Albums ever done from any artist--"Have Yourself Committed". My ears and my heart thank God for you.

Hey, Brian. Just finished reading "Nifty Noodles" and if that's any indication of what to expect in your book, it's going to be great. June 1 was especially moving. Don't ever be afraid to hold back on your thoughts and feelings; there's been too much lack of emotion in the Body of Christ over the years masquerading as "standing" or "non-compromise". Meanwhile, hurting people are falling apart for fear of "revealing" too much of themselves or becoming too vulnerable. It's your kind of honesty that is needed the most today. Thanks for putting self aside and sharing.(So when you comin' back to Grand Rapids, Michigan?)Love ya, man!

Dear Bryan, was blown away by your recent CD (just found in the bookstore today) and have been very impressed by the website. I have been listening to you since "Have Yourself Committed", I didn't even know you were in a band before then - just an ignorant Australian. I went to the concert you were part of in Brisbane somewhere ages ago, and I loved it and your sense of humour - it's really cool when you see someone who can laugh at themselves as well as the world! I have appreciated your music and sense of fun. So often while growing up the words of one of your songs really touched my heart and helped me see things differently and choose to go further into God - thank you. The latest album is wonderful, wonderful music. I'll be singing away in the car and not really caring about all the wierd looks I get from people passing by. Keep on keeping on!! Ta muchly, Erin.

Hi Bryan! I have been a fan since I first heard Whistlin in the Dark when I was a senoir in H.S. the year I asked Jesus in my heart. I have since grown to love all of your music, the lyrics always seem to hit my life right on the mark. If I had to pick the most touching song its A heart like mine- I am now married with 5 children (4 boys and 1 daughter) and they all know and love your music too. I am thankful to God for you and your ministry. God bless you and your family!

We had a nice conversation, and that concert always meant a lot to me. My son grew up loving your music. Now I notice that you were born in Ogden? I saw something from you at the Solid Rock Cafe once and wondered if you had been there. :) Anyway... any chance you will be coming back to Utah sometime? I hope? --Melanie

Just came back a couple weeks ago from cornerstone where the re-union concert absolutely ROCKED! I was one of the 'couldn't-stop-smiling, enthusiastic guys' at stage left. I was introduced later by Randy as your nephew. I have aquired all of the SCB CD's and most of your solo stuff, and it is unparalelled in it's genre. I picked up a 'breakin' the ice' re-union shirt while I was there. Now I have a favorite shirt again. THANK YOU for the once in a lifetime concert, and please pass on my congrat's to the other guys. It was a true blessing to all of us that were new christians with the earlier stuff.

Your songs have touched my heart and I appreciate them very much. Right now " I want to thank you Jesus" and "Holiday in Heaven" are my favorites. Keep on laying down the funk, brother.

Bryan, you are such a blessing to me. I've been hearing you Christian radio, KVNE 89.5 FM from Tyler,Texas, for several years now. I had a hard time putting together all the songs that were yours as they didn't always give your name while I was listening. Then I went to Celebrate Freedom at South Fork Ranch close to Dallas, Texas in July 2000. And there you were!!! Wow, I hadn't realized that all those great songswere by the same guy --- Bryan Duncan --- YOU!!! I have 3 of your CDs now. I love JOYRIDE. "Clap Your Hands" is my favorite. Yeah, I'm an almost 50 year old white woman who loves R&B. As a young child, my dad was a minister in a mainly white pentecostal church. But we loved the way our black brothers and sisters worshipped and tried to incorporate their style as much as possible. That song reminded me of my childhood. I'm glad you decided to do so much R&B (at least to me, this CD seemed more, if not completely R&B). Keep up the great work. I wish you could come to Tyler. I've seen Avalon; Anointed; and Philips, Craig, & Dean there at Caldwell Auditorium and Cowan Center at UT Tyler. Please get a booking there. I know you would have a packed crowd. Love in Christ, Genie Kern

Bryan, You are my absolute favorite. God speaks joy and depth into my heart as I sing along with you. And I laugh at your sense of humor that sometimes plays into a song.

Dear Bryan,I just read your noodle of 6/14/01. My Assoc. Pastor just gave a sermon this morning reminding us that we need to do things out of God's strength and plan, not mine. While I did chuckle at your reference at the end concerning the dancing bear, etc., it was only as a reminder that sometimes when God uses us, it is a those times when we feel like we have failed most. I also want to thank you for being real in those noodle sections. I look forward to the book and I really enjoy "Joyride". Once again, you and God have done some awesome work. I think that maybe the SCB reunion will help in the book thing and God will use it to bring some of that great music to a new set of ears that did not get to hear it the first time. Thanks for all the ahrd work and extra effort that it takes to do another thing. God will bless it. He always does.

Hey there Bryan,Been a fan a couple of years now but haven't been to a concert yet and only have 2 CDs. Of all the music I listen to, Blue Skies is one of my favorites.Of course, there are other bands and artists thatI think are great, such as Michael O'Brien, Chris Rice,and many others. But I really enjoy your music and voicecombination. There seems to be a passion in your voicethat I just do not hear elsewhere. Concerts are hard to come by in my neck of the woods. Upstate New York is nota hotbed of activity where Contemporary Christian Musicis concerned. Most people here have never heard of anyof the artists I listen to. Well, just wanted you to knowthere is at least one fan in the tundra of upper NYS.Thank you for your wonderfully inspiring music.tboprey

Time flys when your unconscience!! Any way it is good to see you are still walking with the LORD, that is a great testamony now days. Keep writing I love joyride.

Bryan,I just had the opportunity to hear SCB at Creation East Coast this past weekend. I can honestly say, after all these years of being apart, you all are still one of the most polished sounding bands I have ever heard. SCB was there when I first caught on to contemporary Christian music and it was a delight to enjoy the group once again over 18 years later. And, to top it off, Kevin shared from his heart, the same way he did when I first had an opportunity to be moved by the ministry of SCB. I miss that sound that only you guys could deliver. You guys are awesome. Let's do it again sometime... soon!Craig

Saw you recently in concert at Trinity Lutheran in Bloomington, Illinois and am looking forward to your return in August when you play at Grace Baptist in Normal. Picked up "Joyride" and love it - favorite track is "Clap Your Hands" with Ashley Cleveland. Be encouraged. God Bless!

Bryan, Thank you for giving your time and talents at Sonrise in Simi Valley recently. Please forgive the repetition but I much more enjoy listening to artists who have been consistent over the years in their walk with the Lord. Doesn't mean they haven't experienced problems but they have found God is a Faithful and True Redeemer of circumstances. And in the mean time God blesses their voices, family and "business". I pray that your family is well. May God continue to bless your life. When you recorded in '85 "Have Yourself Committed" I believe you meant it. I too am committed, no matter what comes.If the Sweet Comfort Reunion turns out well, is there any chance for another west coast appearance besides up in Washington?? How about a concert near where it all began.God bless!!D. Tayman

Dear Mr Bryan, What a joy to read all of your mail - hopefully you read it -such encouragement from your devoted fans who love and pray for you, the family, your peace and protection in the place of His provision, and we all say AMEN! Thank you and the team for this wonderful web page! Looking forward to seeing you at Cornerstone on August 10, 2001. You know me best as David Duffey's mom - that is a special miracle story on its own, but purpose fot today's note is The Carnies, from Oakland (I think) CA. They were special guests in our church service this morning. Don Stavros, now on staff at Peninsula Christian Center in Redwood City CA invited these folk to come with him as he led our service while our senior pastor is in England. You may remember Don (from your e.mails I can tell the bulk of your audience feels known by you, what a compliment!), whose daughter, Jennifer, was dating David Harris before he married the lovely Roxanne, and to quote Don, you "sat on his fireplace hearth" hangin' out with DH. OK,OK enuff background, I told Don this morning how neat it would be if you could meet this family, Jeff, the male lead with Carol his wife and Barbara, his sister and backup singer/instrumentalist. They have "soul" and harmony like Anointed, maybe that's why I thot of you - is it me or the Lord? I know not, but if anyone sees this who can follow up, I believe you will be glad. Anything to bless BD for the blessing you are. I'm still at Trinity Church, if there is anyway I can serve the expansion of His Kingdom through encouraging you, devotedly for Jesus, Charlotte

Bryan, I first heard you in concert at El Camino Christian Church in Sunnyvale, CA when I was the secretary there in 1999. You were and are simply wonderful. If your voice gives out as a singing voice you could do stand-up comedy! I just bought Joyride and love the song I'll Always Have Jesus because I am in the senior generation and sometimes my memory does go. Thank you and your family for sharing your love for Christ and your talent with the rest of us. I look forward to a concert in Heaven when we get there. God bless you and your family for the sacrifices made for us.Pat

In 1996 I purchased a couple of "recycled" disks from a exchange house, the typical jazz/fusion of a 50's guys taste. Somehow the "Lunatic Friends" disk ended up in the Lee Ritenour jacket. I immediately noticed something was wrong when the vocals began. To make a long story short, this was the beginning of a HUGE growth of faith in my families life bringing us to a lifestyle of prayer, devotion, and celebration of our Lord. Through all this we have collected all your music and have shared its musical splendor and ministry with everyone we come on contact with. We so much want to see you in person someday. It was great to find this website. Do you actually see these? Blessings,Charlie & Mari Lou

Dear Bryan, thank you sooooooooooooo much for sharing The Music of your Soul. GOD has indeed filled you up to overflowing, and watching you bubble all over the stage is a sight to see!Your energy and humor is infective and your music is a spiritual salve that warms from the inside out.My husband David and I attended our first Bryan Duncan Concert at WOG Church June 8th and we were Blown away!It was like that comercial for stereo speakers, where the guy is sitting there in front of them in his easy chair,You while the sound blows everything but him out of the room!You blew us away!There's a story about how we came to find you or should I say how God works in MYSTERIOUS WAYS..... I was never a Church go'er. My Mother was Catholic my Father a Babtist, I use to call myself a CATH O'BAB when anyone would ask,and thats kinda how I lived My life...believing in GOD our Father and His Son, but unwilling to sign up to one Faith or the other. So at this point of my life I'm still a CATH O" BAB who goes to a METHODIST CHURCH with My raised CATHLOIC Husband of 12 years. Between us we have 4 teenagers ages: 19,16,15,14...figure that one out.......2nd marriage.Thank the Lord their ALL GOOD KIDS,no delinquents like we use to be........anyway, One morning, my Wonderful Soul Mate,Comes in and Says" Honey, I heard the most beautiful Church Bells coming from this little Methodist Church around the corner,so I stopped in and listened to this Inspiring Minister named "BOB DEITZ"and I would like for us to all go next Sunday!"...... "UH HUH" I said, as I invisioned myself being pulled through the door jam like a cat with 8 paws.......When I was 5 years old, a Southern Babtist Minister scared the Hell out of me, and the few visits that I made to the Catholic Church when I was older, made me feel like I didn't measure up to being there......so, gentley, my husband coaxed US ( teenagers and CHURCH!) to goand we are forever grateful for his soul inspiring efforts!Bob Deitz and his Wonderful wife June have been our spiritual guides through this world, teaching us how to build our relationship with our Lord and Savior.I no longer feel like I don't measure up. Any how,not only do they try to guide our souls in the right direction they taught us TANGO!Their awesome! Well to try to make this long story short....This is Bob's last year at Velda Rose Methodist Church and he said he would like to go out with a bang so......................David and I have been appointed to come up with music(were both singers/musicians) for the New Sunday 5:00 service, that is aimed towards drawing family's into our fold,and to insure the survival of our Church. Velda Rose is in what use to be a Senior area, so most of the morning services are directed towards traditional Hymns and such.This is where GOD pointed us in your direction.David and I are Rockers from way back....okay the 70's and 80's and thats the kind of music that we enjoy performing, Heart,Queen, Foreigner,etc.......and we thought to ourselves " I'LL BET JESUS WOULD LIKE ROCK AND ROLL IN THE GLORY OF OUR FATHER" why not....Our Grandparent's and our Parents,are approching Glory,and leaving the Legacy of GOD in our hands to pass on to our children and our children's children..So...as Beautiful as the Hymns are......... have you ever seen a teenager impressed with "CHURCH MUSIC?"......Every Hymn when it was written was the Contemporary Christian Music of its day.....the song writer I'm sure hoped it would have people singing it!SO......... when I went lookin for the answer to this.......long.......drawnnnnnnn out story........I was SEARCHIN ON THE INTERNET FOR AN ANSWER TO MY DELIEMA, I FOUND K-LOVE RADIO.....and........I CLICK ON TO CHRISTIAN ARTISTS,AND I SEE THIS FACE.....VERY SCHOOLBOYISH.....AND I THINK TO MYSELF......PROBABLY AN IRISH TENOR......AND I CLICK ON TO THE SAMPLE MUSIC BUTTON........AND I'M TOTALLY BLOWN AWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. THANK YOU LORD!YOU DO WANT US TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE OUR LOVE FOR YOU THROUGH THE POWER OF ROCK N'ROLL,THANK YOU FOR GIVING US BRYAN DUNCAN A MAN THAT THOUGH, SHORT IN STATURE, IS BIGGER THAN LIFE IN VOICE AND SPIRIT, AND THAT NOT ONLY DOES HE SING YOUR PRAISES IN A VOICE THAT COMMANDS,CAJOLES AND INSPIRES,HE IS A WARM AND FUNNY HUMAN BEING, THAT HAS TAKEN THE AWESOME GIFTS YOU HAVE GIVEN HIM AND APPLYED THEM TO THE SPIRITUALLY CHALLENGED, WHO WANT TO FIND GOD BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK!!!!THANK YOU LORD JESUS!!!AMEN!....whew! Bryan,we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!David is a singer who lkes to challenge his voice and he truely appreciates your ability to write songs that take you on a Musical journey.... that has enough vocal, dips, bends and loop de loops to thrill the youngest of heart......actually he said "Man,he's the best I've heard since Freddie Mercury.......but I'm writing this so.................Anywayz,I think I should close with this............Personally..... I think JESUS likes to rock n' roll.......Peace n' love to ya'lll......Aleta

Hi Bryan! My husband and I saw you at Jammin Java in Austin on June 2, 2001. I was introduced to your music right after I became a christian in 1990. You have been my favorite contemporary christian artist ever since. I had always wanted to see you in concert. My first time to see you was at my church in Austin - Shoreline Christian Center. You came with the Left Behind Concert Tour. I left there wanting to hear more of you. We were thrilled to see you back in Austin on June 2. We had no idea the Jammin Java was so small! Had I known I would have brought my camera. You had me and my husband laughing all night. I love your boldness, directness, and your sense of humor! Your concert was great! May God bless you and your family abundantly.Joe & Deneen FowlerAustin, Texas

I ran into someone at Christian Discount Bookcenter today that told me of this website. Bryan, I've been listening to your music since SCB days and just love all of it (except the hip-hop rap stuff, just can't get it!) I knew that I had been a little out of touch with Christian music for a while, but was embarrased to see all the CD's listed that I've never heard before. I can't wait to see you in concert again, it's been a really long time. I truly enjoyed reading your noodles. It's refreshing to hear you being real about your feelings and faith and views of God. May He bless your work and life. Looking forward to listening to you more! Paula Clevenger

Hey BD! Loved the concert last night at WOG in Mesa. Remember, it's a dry heat! This is my 5th BD concert since my discovery that you were my favorite recording artist back in 1985. Thanks for signing my "Have Yourself Commited" cassette. I was so blessed that you took the time to talk to every person waiting for autographs. It is refreshing to meet someone who is genuine and honest about everyday struggles that we all face. My daughter, Kiana can't stop talking about the concert and the picture she drew for you. She thinks she wants to be a singer now! The concert was great, as usual. Can't wait for the SCB tour! Please come to AZ!!!!!!!! ~Blessings, Kimberlee Gibson

Hey Bryan...You remain my favorite voice in Contemporary Christian Music. When I see a new album coming out, I purchase it the first day. I must say, Joyride is a throwback to the early days and I love it!!! I have seen you in concert several times over the years and have even emceed the concerts up here in Grass Valley. The combination of your sense of humor and your open honest heart are an incredible blessing! Thank you Bryan for being real! I look forward to seeing you on stage again soon. God Bless you!

Bryan: I played the Secular scene for 28 years and The Lord decided it was time for me to move on to bigger and better things. He slammed me good with the Holy Spirit and I surrendered my life to Him. This all just happened last November. I'm now writing for the Lord and am trying to get caught up on my new music scene. I have been playing alotta funk R&B, Jazz and Blues. JoyRide is such an anointed piece of work. This is the first one of your CD's I have heard. I know this is a special one for you. Praise the Lord. God Bless you for inspiring me in my writing. Ric

Being a son of a guitar player and singing in my father's band I know how it feelsto deal with the things that you have to deal with........God made us over-sensitive to respondto the issues of the spirit, but it sure gets in the way when you get in front of people.....anywaywe knew your music way back in the SCB days, boy did that get us through a lot of hell........don't everthink you didn't make a difference......I don't think I would have survived the abuse if your music hadn't beenthere.

You autographed a picture for my two girls at the Celebration Concert at Saddleback Church a couple of weeks ago. Thanks again. I told you they were huge fans. You looked at me kind of funny, and rightly so...not many nine and five year old girls like our kind of music but they do..."Turn it up, Daddy!" Also, the Steely Dan-like touches on the disc were cool. Peace, Ken.

Dear Bryan,I just picked up your newest disc, "Joyride". This dates me, but the first and only term that came to mind was "dyn-o-mite!!"My wife and I have followed your music and career for years. I actually had the (nervous!!) pivilege of leading worship, on two occasions, during the period of time between your 'Sweet Comfort' years and going solo. You came to Big Bear Lake, Ca Calvary Chapel (then Pastor Mike Fulmer and his wife Becky)to give us a couple of little mini-concerts, one at the "Women's Club" on a Wednesday night, the other at a camp (Pine Summit?) on a Saturday night. Some where I have a tapeof you doing your rendition of "Short People".A lot of water has gone under the bridge since then. My wife and I and our six kids now live in Wisconsin. I am leading worship at a church here in Manitowoc - very traditional Catholic/Lutheran town. Been there about a year. They are slowly getting used to a, shall we say less tradtional form of worship. There are times I dream of being able to infuse our music with some Bryan Duncan soul, but when I open my mouth out comes Brian Barlow, and that's okay. Thanks for using your incredible vocal gift to sing to us - and for us about our Lord and Savior, Jesus.Finally, about Joyride. Four of our six children are special needs adoptions.Two of them are African American. They tell me they are "brown" and we are "vanilla". Zanica (Suneeka) is 6, and Treona is 5. They are huge Kirk Franklin fans.I was trying to decide whether to buy your CD or another by Jeff Weiss (one of Eli's road guitarists).I let the girls listen to a couple of cuts off of Joyride, and they were dancing in the Christian bookstore isles.The choice was made; Jeff will have to wait.I know you are a busy man, and I'm just another somebody who thinks they know you.Just wanted to say how much my wife and I, and now my kids,have enjoyed your music over the years. Keep on truckin'. Oh, and the cover of "Maybe I'm Amazed" was a special treat to this old (ouch) Beatles/ McCartney fan.Only one disappointment: no lyrics!!! Anyway to secure those?Bryan, thanks for taking the time to read this. I leave you with a final thought: which is the true,correct, and definitive spelling of such a great name - with a "y" or an "i". I await your opinion.From the land of the Cheesehead,Brian Barlow

Hiya Bryan! I like the website...I linked here from another site that has some listings for concerts in California. I've seen you a few times...once with the "econo band" which was really cool since I had been a SCB fan for quite awhile by that time...plus Adam Again was part of the show too. We also had you at our church last year when we opened the new sanctuary...I got a laugh because our church is pretty tame & you "kinda" noticed that :-) I grew up in a Catholic church, but got saved in an Assembly of God church (1982)...I know, that's a little bit of a stretch! Anyways...I settled into a church that is somewhere in the middle of the two extremes...good solid teaching, good ministries with groups and such, and pretty good praise and worship (although a lot are still uncomfortable lifting hands & people certainly are uncomfortable bowing down). Haven't heard the new album yet...might pick it up this weekend. I've got almost everything you've put out...missing a few :-) Take care and hope to see you again soon! Duane

I've been reading all of these entries from folks who say..."I saw you here...back when you were...and I was....and..." Man, step back and take a look at the ripples you've made since way back when... I saw you for the very first time at church camp in Findlay,OH. I'll never forget your electric blue, high top, chuck conner tennis shoes you were wearing. Not only a great singer, but quite a keen fashion sense!! It must have been the "Holy Rollin'/Have yourself Committed" era. I love your stuff Bryan, you are one of a kind for sure. Thanks for personally writing back to me each time i've ever written to you. Not many artists do that....Well, NONE that I know of. Just recently received JOYRIDE and...this thing BUMPS!! Very gospel, very Jesus, I love it....and we love you!!

Bryan, you probably do not remember me so I will help remind you. I was 28 when you 1st started your solo tours. We had you in Colorado Springs. Remember? How could you forget!! 15 people showed up to your concert!! (I believe you were single then.) I enjoyed so much hearing you sit down at the keyboard to just practice your new songs on us. I do know that you were struggling with the idea that "no one" showed up for a Byan Duncan concert. Humbling wasn't it? I could sense that when I was driving you to a store for mouth losenges to help out in this city's dry climate. The few that showed up knew you were hot stuff - -still are! You handled yourself in that frustrating situation well. That was probably one of the many "life lessons" learned - - and I was there! I've had many since then also. I now have Multiple Sclerosis. When I listen to you sing, I picture you sitting next to me my car. . .because that is how I met you and know you best!

My parents got saved before I was born & thank God my dad loves music! He has every cd of yours except joyride- but don't worry: I bought it! I can't tell you how much I love your music. God works through you big time. I'm almost 18 and getting ready to leave for college (Liberty University!)and major in music. If it's God's will that I go in the christian music business I pray that God will us me like he's used you. You are so awesome & talented!!!

Hi Bryan,I was at the concert at Saddleback earlier this month...I was one of the two-hundred voices in the choir. I want to say it was a thrill and a total privilege to sing with you...I have been a fan since Have Yourself Committed. Anyway, I thought long and hard about how to say this and I think this is the way... you can't really equate album sales and general audience response to the level of eternal impact your ministry is having. In reading your noodles it seems like you are discouraged...and that sort of bums me out because the impact of the ministry that God has given you is evident in the dozens of entries in your guestbook. I understand that I have no idea what it is like to be in your position, but as a worship leader or choir member for the last 15 years, I can tell you that as long as we are doing what God has given us to do, He will bring the harvest. We may be only the seed planter or the waterer...we might not be around to see the effects of the work we do. But that's okay..not always gratifying, but okay. Yep, I'm rambling. I guess that means I'm done. :) Keep the faith, Bryan. I know I speak for the rest of the two hundred of us when I say that if there's another opportunity to sing with you...we'll be there...swayin and clappin and singin our hearts out because, like you, we love Him with our lives.

brian, In 1984, I attended Jimmy Swaggart Bible College in Baton Rouge, LA. At that time, SCB was disbanding and you were starting out on your own. Living in the North, the only people I was able to listen to was Bill and Gloria Gaither. Later, as time went on, I would hear you on a couple of stations in my area. Then,a few years ago, I saw your album,"Mercy" and thought I would give the album a listen. I could listen to it for hours on end. Especially,your signature song "Love Takes Time". Thanks,Bryan, for being a true blue-eyed soul singer.

DUDE!!! Saw you in the fall of 1990 (think) when you played a gymnasium at Trinity University in Suburban Chicago for the Anonymous Confessions of a Lunatic Friend tour. My wife and I took her parents to see that show... Things were fine until some of our brothers in Christ decided to slam dance to the tunes in front of the stage. Ha! My mother-in-law is still trying to recover from that... :D

You are by far the funkiest white boy this True Geek has ever seen. I just picked up Joy Ride and love it to death!Your are one heck of a jazz musician, my friend. God bless you for sharing your gifts with us.

"My Utmost" is my favorite album for when I'm tired and just need to get back on track. "Dying to meet you" is my most favorite song of all you've done (Haven't gotten "Joy Ride" yet) as I am looking forward to Heaven. Hope to see you soon in concert. It's always worth it. Judy

Bryan, remember doing a concert at Bowling Green State University student union? I bet the president of the BGSU remembers too! He sent someone down the hall to let us know the concert was too loud! We loved it! I have been a fan for quite some time. SCB was one of my favorites. Since those days I have watched your ministry grow. (My wife and I attended a taping of a TV show with host Dana Key at Lesea Broadcasting a couple of years ago.) Thanks for being rock solid, real and approachable. If you are ever in Yakima, give me a call! By the way....bought JOYRIDE today! SUPER!

My dad got your newest cd ( joy ride) mainly because you redid Maybe im amazed. He always said that if he ever got to sing he would redo tht song. It is soo cool!!! Ive never been to one of your concerts before,,, but my dad has... this is too cool.

Bryan we in the South East of England are very priviledged to be served by a Christian Radio Station "Premier" over the last five years. Thats where I was first introduced to your music and as I see it, thank God, that you can do no wrong. I have often requested anything by Bryan Duncan especially for a friend with the same surname. I have tried without success to get your work from our local Christian Bookshop.Recently, while driving to work I heard "Maybe Im Amazed" and I sure was especially loving this song previously as a non-christian. Friday after a disappointing shopping expedition I discovered a church where they sell music and acquired Joyride which is now almost worn out. I/We just love it.Sadly, our only Christian Radio station will soon have to re-apply for a licence so please sign the petition at www.premier.org.uk so it can continue to bless us with the music of Bryan Duncan. Or maybe you would be so kind and bless us in person with a concert tour over here?With love in Christ.

Its so much easier to put on the "Christian" jacket that those of us reared in the church have, than to be real, and let others see the clay God is trying to mold...the wonder that He loves a heart like mine...thanks

You have been Heather's and my favorite male solo artist for many years, so it was great to here you in person and speak to you briefly after the show. "I'm amazed" of how you represent the Lord in your songs and humor and reach others for His glory. Thanx for the great time and Hope you get back this way again soon. Maybe see you at Darien Lake in New York this year. God Bless.

Hello Bryan, Saw your concert in Bremerton,Wa. Loved the performance you gave, but was a bit disappointed at the shortness of the program. I guess the way you kept looking at your watch, and how you didn't have time to stay, was the most disappointing part. My sister and I are both big fans of your music, and hadn't seen you in concert since 1986. I had also driven close to 300 miles from Vancouver, Wa. to Bremerton. Was hoping to have you sign my favorite cd, and the ticket stub that sis has had since 1986. But we understand that you had another engagement the next day that you had to be at. Just wish you would have had time to stay longer. Smiles, Joyce

I am interpreting sign language for your concert here as I have done in the past, and want to thank you for opening your music and messege up to the deaf community by working so well with the interpreters. I have invited a few deaf people who are not very close to the Lord (traditional upbringing) but I think your "grass roots" style will cause them to start thinking about a relationship with Jesus. See you here in Bremerton. God bring you safe!

My family first heard your music at Faith 2000 in Rock Hill, SC in June of 2000. We rushed out and bought "the worst selling album of your career", quoting you! HAHA! It was great! I don't know how it was the worst selling album. We thought it was awesome. Our 8 year old son knows all of your songs by heart! My husband and I would like to say thank you for your songs. They really minister to us. They remind us that we are only human and have our faults but through it all, God loves us more than we can fathom! THANK YOU, Bryan! Hey, one more thing, we moved to Atlanta, Ga earlier this year and I know you don't have concerts planned here. PLEASE< PLEASE, Can you come to Ga and put on a concert??? My family will spread the word, we'll be your advertising execs!! People don't know what their missing!!!! God Bless You! We'll see you soon in Atlanta, Ga!!! Ginger

Hello Bryan,I first saw you on the Michael English show and heard you sing "Maybe I'm amazed", I thoroughly enjoyed it! It sounded so natural, for a minute I thought that was the way the song was originally recorded (I didn't know that was a Christian song!!)HA. God is so good to give gifts like he has given to you and then allowed you to share it so we can be blessed. I've read your "noodles" and now I'm curious about your special singing talent. I'd like to get your CD -Joyride and hope that it will be offered on your website or better yet, maybe our local christian radio station could get you to do a gig in International Falls, MN. (They call it the icebox of the nation, but maybe you could be scheduled during the summer months!)If I have to settle for just the CD, good enough. May God continue to bless you on your journey.

Hi Bryan and Jody!Hope you are all doing fine. (Jessy says hi to Devin, of course!) Just wanted to say how much I am enjoying the new CD. It is great to hear you singing your soul out (quite literally!) I have to say you are having WAAAYYYY TOO MUCH FUN HERE. . . and I can't thank you enough for that! The horn section is fantastic, and for sheer soul this ranks right up there with the best of Tower of Power, Bryan. It positively slams! All the best to you-- Jan Millard

Bryan,you are one of my favorite singers. I am one of the people who wrote to Michael E. and requested that he have you on his show. I really enjoyed the program on TBN. I have only been listening to contemporary christian music for about a year. I grew up on the traditional hymns, I didnt know what I was missing. I love a lot of your older stuff, especially Blessed are the tears. You are my favorite male singer and Crystal is my favorite female singer. I haven't got your latest cd, but I plan on it.

My interest in Bryan Duncan goes back to my first date(Age 16 in '71 Gremlin). It was 1977 SCB in Riverside at an old hall near the mission inn(I still have that first cassette). Then on rips life and it's 1985 at CSUF Bryan shows up solo on the plaza. Then it's Las Vegas 1997 the show closed on thursday and I am out of work again but I stumble by a christian bookstore and Bryan is in town the net night. What a blessing! I have spent 20 years traveling around the country singing whatever they'd pay me to sing, and here I get to see, hear, and feel God and his love makin' me GET God and GET Singin'. I can't put it into words. Then maybe a year later somewhere in Orange county, CA BryanD and BobC again I am moved beyond words. Now here I sit in Georgia. It's nearly midnight and I have somehow ended up on this website. Maybe Bryan will never read this but there's something that has deeply touched me about Bryan Duncan even on top of his gifts of voice, message, vision, delivery. After all songs, applause... etc...never have I seen or heard Bryan say thank you(you know like Elvis "thank you very much"). I don't get that he is rude or unthankful. I get that he believes it is God's applause, voice, songs; God's everything and he is not about to take praise or glory for what truly belongs to God. From my point of view, God is so honored and so visible through Bryan's music and performances. There are so many gifted voices on this planet and it just blessed me to realize not once did I hear Bryan take the credit for his amazing gifts. This will always be a blessing and a lesson to me. Like with God's love, I feel refreshed. Like there is still hope in this selfish, look at me, me-first-world. I will always carry with me God's blessings through His servant Bryan Duncan...Thank You God for Bryan and for giving him all the gifts it took to keep showin' up in a life like mine. It is so humbling and comforting to get a glimpse of God.DS

Bryan, I really enjoyed Easter Sunrise Service. Thanks for being willing to wake up that early and sing! If 4-40 comes to a concert, how do we let you know we are there if we can't physically see you after the concert? Are you hanging out hiding until it breaks up a little? I just realized I am missing 5 albums (the solo ones)! Guess I am going to the local bookstore to make sure they have them and that they are stocked up on Joyride, too!May God continue to show you His plan for your life!Love in Christ,Sharyn P.

Bryan, As a fellow musician and writer I completly dig your varied style of music selections that I have heard. Being reletivly new to contemporary music, you really caught my ear. As a fellow brother in Christ, your music touches my soul and opens my heart like nothing I had ever expierienced. The album Blue Skies touched me more than you could ever know. Ironically one of the bands I play in is called Joyride, so we all immediatly ran out and bought a copy. I'll always have Jesus is a awesome adaptation of a jazz standard you just can't get enough. We, the band, tend to write in a blues/jazz style, and when we heard thatit was ear to ear grins. Awesome disc....hope you get to Michigan soon!

Hi Bryan-My first SCB concert was in Thousand Oaks, CA 1977. I met you through a friend with sound studio in Camarillo, CA. Saw you recently in Ventura w/Joyride promo. Especially enjoy your latest CD, but I claim all of them to be my "favorite"! I am on your web site today looking for upcoming concerts in our area to bring family and friends that missed you in Ventura. Sure wish we could have attended the coffee house concert on the east coast. Sounded like alot of fun. We'll see you in Simi Valley and Rancho Santa Margarita-until then....

Hello Bryan! I've seen you in concert twice. Once back in the early 80's with Sweet Comfort Band and the other time was here in South Bend at The World Pulse Festival-although I think they were still calling it The WHME/Pulse FM Birthday Party the year you sang there. I've always been a fan and I just want to say thanks for sharing your faith with us all through your music. God bless you.

Brian:You are my favorite christian from "way back." Long ago, a your song "You Don't Leave Me Lonely" really touched my heart. My cousin had died and it seemed to capture my feelings just perfectly. In 1995, after a 6-month battle with cancer, our 2-year old daughter, Savanah went to be with the Lord. One of the songs sang at her funeral service was "You Don't Leave Me Lonely." I have often wondered what inspired you in the writing of this song. May God continue to richly bless your wonderful ministry!

Just got home from hearing you live at Jammin' Java in Vienna, VA. What a great concert! Thanks for taking the time to let me talk to you a bit, and hope my comment about Strollin' on the Water didn't mess up your next show. I love that song a lot, but somehow the rendition was heavy -- couldn't feel the lightness of the 'stroll', if you know what I mean. I must say though that having the live band was a real treat. It seemed to me that you enjoyed it more than the 'econo' version, and it helped the tunes feel more immediate and alive -- because they were! Helped me to feel that I'd really witnessed a one-of-a-kind performance, and that's what a concert should feel like.Your music has been a huge part of my life for the last 15 years, and I so appreciate your honesty in sharing from your heart. Your humor is outragious, too. My 14-year old daughter and I loved our night with you and the band. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts, and we will be prayin' for you. I've been there, too. God bless, Karen

I've been a fan since the "Sweet C" days. How come no West Coast Tour? Like you guys can't take the Greyhound Express up the I5. What's up with that? I'll tell you what, I'll pay for the gas. Think about it... you'll already have gotten warmed up on the East Coast thing why not spread a little love on the West Coast with some shows. I'm not asking ya I'm tellin' ya! Look it up. It's somewhere between John and First John. It's in the greek. Believe me I know all about these things. And Don't forget...the West was always your strongest fan base, right? P.S. Don't forget the skat/guitar exchange with Randy after the drum solo...you know what I'm talkin' about. I wanna hear you loud and clear...that's one thing I haven't seen you do in the last ten years...and I know you aint skipped a beat!

Bryan - thank you for JOYRIDE. (Got it for my Birthday- April Fools Day.) Just the thing for a funk junkie like myself. I'm hoping to have a great musical weekend at the end of July this summer in eastern Washington: Thursday night in Richland with your old pals Tower of Power, (at least Emillio and Doc from your old sessions are still with them) and then the SCB reunion the next night at Creation Fest. Does it get any better than that? (From what I hear about it, you'll love playing the Gorge Amphitheatre.)

THIS PAST CHRISTMAS I PURCHASED A FEW CD'S FOR MY WIFE AND ALSO TO GET UP TO SPEED ON MUSIC THAT THE WHOLE FAMILY COULD ENJOY. MY KIDS(6 & 10) ARE STARTING TO TAKE AN INTEREST IN BRITNEY SPEARS, ARRON CARTER, ETC. AND I WANTED TO GIVE THEM CHRISTIAN MUSIC THAT WOULD APPEAL TO THEM AS WELL AS THEIR FRIENDS. YOUR MUSIC HAS DONE JUST THAT. AS A FAMILY WE NOW ENJOY YOUR MUSIC, PARTICULARLY THE LYRICS. 'STROLLING ON THE WATER' IS MY SON AND DAUGHTER'S FAVORITE. I HEAR THEM HUMING THE SONG AROUND THE HOUSE AND IT IS A REAL THRILL TO ME TO KNOW THEY HAVE THAT SONG IN THEIR HEART. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, IN JESUS NAME. I LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING YOU SOME DAY, MAYBE IN SIMI VALLEY IN JUNE. I'LL BRING THE KIDS, THEY WILL LOVE IT.

WE WERE THRILLED JUST TO RECOGNIZE YOU AND CHAT WITH YOU A LITTLE. WE LOVE YOUR MUSIC AND I PERSONALLY AM IMSPIRED BY YOUR LYRICS IN YOUR SONGS. LAST OCTOBER MY HUSBAND MIKE AND I TRAVELED THROUGH ISRAEL WITH A CHRISTIAN MINISTRY. WHEN WE WERE ON THE SEA OF GALILEE, IT BROUGHT YOUR SONG 'STROLLING ON THE WATER' TO MIND AND I COULD IMAGINE, AS YOU MUST HAVE, HOW PETER FELT WHEN HE SAY JESUS WALKING ON THE WATER. I KNOW WHAT YOU DO MUST BE EXHAUSTING AND YOU'VE HAD TO HAVE MADE ALOT OF SACRIFICES FOR THE MUSIC, BUT I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO PRESS ON. GOD IS USING YOU TO TOUCH PEOPLES HEARTS AND LIVES.

We had to rent equipment, I remember going with "Hamburger" to get equipment. I have fond memories of you and the guys spending the day at my house ,you , Randy, Rick and Kevin. I have seen you in concert many times since then and am still your biggest fan...would love to see ya and maybe do a concert in Dallas now. God Bless you, Ron

Thank you for coming to Metairie. I have seen you in St. Louis, outside Chicago, southern Il, and now in LA. As a long time fan I just want to thank you for all your songs. They have gotten me through the bad times as well as the good times. I can't begin to tell you what your music has meant to me. I was at the concert in Metairie. I was in the Wheel chair. When you shook my hand I felt that I was shaking the hand of a very near and dear friend. I know we did meet breifly years ago, but through your music I feel that you know my every thought, mood and feelings. No one can put things the way you do. You are a true blessing and I thank God for you everyday. I love Joyride. I got it the day it came out. But I have all your Cd's now. Thanks once again.SandiMac1@Excite.com

Dear Bryan, WOW "Joyride" is awsome. Two Sundays ago my wife gave me a copy of the CD to listen to,as I was walking out the door to visit a friend in jail. On the way home I "popped" it into my player and I was really groovin' until I got pulled over my a trooper who had set a speed trap in my own home church parking lot. He was very gracious and let me go with a warning. "Joyride" hasn't come out of my player since. What a great blessing it's been to me. I'm really enjoying "pray for me". The quality of music is every bit as good as any on the secular plane. God bless you in every endeavor!

I first heard about Bryan's music from a guy I met on Christian Matchmaker. The guy didn't work out, but I was thoroughly moved by "A Heart Like Mine" and my all time favorite album is "Simple Prayers" I never thought I'd actually be buying Christian music! I saw Bryan's concert at his college and thoroughly enjoyed it. Funny how a guy who lives in Chicago had to tell me about someone from my own back yard. I just hounded the church bookstore until they got in Joyride. What a kick! Bryan's very versatile-never sounds the same old same old. If you happen to read this stuff, thanks a lot for your music. Thanks to you, I'm all jazzed about singing in our gospel/calypso/whatever, Amen Choir now at Shepherd of the Hills. Your music touches my heart still. I hope to see you in concert again soon.

OH MY!!!!!! I cant imagine how many lives you must be saving with your POWERFUL music! Your CD Mercy, saved my life 3 yrs ago. I was not not a Christian 3 yrs ago. I had never thought about becoming a Christian. However, while I was channel surfing on afternoon, I came across your video on some Christian music station, I heard the words, HAVE YOU EVER BEEN LIED TOO< MAYBE MISTREATED..TAKEN FOR GRANTED...etc..etc....I was tuned in.....I walked up to the TV and was frozen. I listened and was drawn in. I made a bee line to the music store, bought the CD and I must have played the CD for HR'S!!!! The entire CD is and always will be my favorite! Dont get me wrong, I love all your music, but the Mercy CD, helped me along the path to becoming a Christian. I became a Christian 2 weeks later. I have had to buy 2 of the same CD, because I have worn our the others. HONESTLY!!!! I listen everyday. I listen to you during my prayer time. I saw you in concert here about 1 1/2 yr's ago. You were in Ft Worth. I tried desperately to meet you, but I had my 8 yr old son with me and he was not feeling so well. By they way, he also loves your music!!!! I see a concert date for Nov 2001 in Dallas....I WILL BE THERE!!!!!!! Thanks BRYAN for leading me to Christ!!!!!Colleen

I would like to see if Bryan would be interested in doing a charity event and if possible a concert for the church putting on the event. I do not know if you have ever heard of Royal Family Kids' Camp. But Crossroads Christian Church is sponsoring a bowl a thon an I would like to invite Bryan to bowl with us. Also we will be having a pancake breakfast and I would count it an honor if you would consider playing for this event also. Mike Charities Coordinator

I went and got Joyride last Saturday.What a great CD. It is the best Bryan Duncan music yet. I have been a Bryan Duncan since Sweet Comfort days. I am 37 years old. I live in Ann Arbor, MI. I am driving all the way to New York for Kingdom Bound just for the day to see Bryan Duncan and Sweet Comfort Band. I can't wait.

Gee, I have all the solo projects and some Sweet Comfort - Does that make me a really old fan or what? (The Sweet Comfort stuff is on those old vinyl flying saucers they used to call "records", lol.) Seriously, your music has spoken to me sooo many times and often keeps me pointed in the right direction. Thank you for being God's servant. (When we all get to Heaven and sing and praise for 10,000 years, I wanna be standing near you!) Oh yeah, and this lunatic also has doubles of alot of the CD's: one for the house and one for the car. I have over 400 Contemporary Chrisitan CD's and I listen to yours the most, cuz they really speak to me and I JUST LIKE THE GROOVE!!

FINALLY, a new album, to not only break into my personal top ten, but to dethrone the champion -- Amy Grant's Lead Me On. I've been so disappointed in the offering of Christian music over the past few years. Then Chris Rice's new album Smell the Color Nine made the top ten, that was exciting. But Joyride came screaming in and went right to the top. This is quite an honor mind you. To certify this honor copy the following text into your favorite desktop publishing program and hit print:This is to certify that Bryan Duncan, on the 21st day of March in the year of our Lord 2001, has successfully dethroned Amy Grant's very long standing record as Jason Rapert's top pick in Christian music. And, in addition to this fine accomplishment, Bryan Duncan's Anonymous Confessions of a Lunatic Friend still remains in the top ten. This qualifies Bryan Duncan as the only artist EVER to occupy two spots in Jason Rapert's top ten. Congratulations and this certificate can be redeemed at any Chic-Fil-A for a free sweet tea.Once again Bryan, GREAT ALBUM! Definitely the Bryan Duncan we all knew existed, but was being drowned by the "adult contemporary" millstone around his neck. Yet, every album you have done has been really good, Joyride just happens to be the most outstanding Christian album EVER!P. S. Don't tell Amy, she's a little sensitive now after the baby and all.

Hi Brian,I saw you at a very sad occasion in Auburn last year, whenthe pastor lost his daughter. God has given you insight intoloss, lonliness, misunderstanding, depression that few people have who have not walked in those shoes. I suspect it's cuz you have. I am a hebrew christian of 50 years-28 of them with the Lord. I was divorced after 23 years of marriage, and have been sharing a house in historic Folsomwith my 26 year old daughter, her fiance, and his brother.(All under 30). Prayer for me! Hopefully I have learned everything I need to and will be able to share a householdsoon with another person. I'm thinking about my massage therepist who is a Morman! Anyway, God is getting me in touch with my grief. My brother was killed in front of me when I was 18, my mom died 6 months later, and my dad when I was pregnant with my26 year old. (I also have a 23 year old daughter who has given me a 5 year old granddaughter, and a 4 1/2 mo. old grandson.I stuffed my emotions for so long, I have been unable to cry for me. This brings -dis-ease, which is never good. Soinstead of name it and claim it, I finally have gone throughcounseling, out-partient New Life Clinic type stuff that you pay big bucks for. I highly recommend it! I've alwaysthought you'd make a very cool friend. Hope this finds youout of the boat, and "Walking on the water".Hershelle

Bryan: I love your music and I am in AWE of your talent. I've been a fan since I discovered your version of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" on a Christmas compilation about 10 years ago. It just blew me away! I caught you in concert in St. Louis at the Westport Playhouse a few years ago also. Great show! AND, I own nearly all your albums. I don't have the new one YET, but I WILL and SOON! Saw you on Michael English's program and have been hearing "Maybe I'm Amazed" on a local Christian radio station. WOW! You are a brilliantly talented, soulful artist! Keep up the GREAT work and know that you have a loyal fan (well, I'm sure more than one) in St. Louis. By the way, your sense of humor/wit is hilarious.

Hey Bryan:I am a mother of 15 month old twins, we love your music. I recently won your newest cd from my local radio station when visiting their web site. I love it. I have been to a few of your concerts when I lived in South Florida. I am friends with the person I consider the ultimate Bryan Duncan fan. You have met him before since he picked you up from the airport for a concert in South Florida. His name is Bob Bananno. His brother works for the station in West Palm. Anyway I said all that to say Hi. God Bless always.

Bryan, Thank you so much for so many years of great music and ministry. I first heard you back in 1980. My mom used to leave "her" music laying around so that my brother and I would have to listen to it. We were listening to all the worldly groups ( Kiss, styxx, etc.). Mom and Dad wanted to steer us away from that music because they could see the effect it was having on us. Her best trick was to leave an 8-track in the player so that when we turned on the stereo it would start playing. More than twenty years have past since hearing "somebody loves you" for the first time. Now I give thanks to God for my Mom and Dad and Sweet Comfort band for helping me see my need for Him. Thank you for all the great songs over the years! Love in Christ, Rick

I love to listen to your music. I saw you on a TV Christian station one night when I was going through some trials. I was so blessed by your songs (thank you for letting the Lord use you) that I went out and bought a CD. Now I can say I have three of your CD's the latest being JOY RIDE. I am such a big fan of RB Gospel and love to listen to you. I even play them at work and so many people who are not saved comment on the music. Good way for me to witness without getting fired. May the Lord continue to give you peace, joy and happiness. MA

Life time fan. Still waiting for that Sweet Comfort Band Reunion. This new album (Joyride)is IMHO, the style of music, Bryan was born to sing. I like the liner notes also,when Mark Baldwin starts talking about "laying downthe Funk." That could have been the title of the CD right there. Thanks Bryan for another great CD.

Hi Bryan, I just love your carribean dream song, and Simple as That song because last semester when I was too stressed out with my first semester of college when I heard those songs I felt so much better just remembering that God could take away all my worries and stress away. My brother and sister like your music too. They saw you here in san antonio when you were with the Sweet Comfort Band. My sister and I keep looking for that song you sang here in San Antonio called I'll pray for you. I'm not sure if it's in any of the cd's we have. If you would please let me know where I can find it. Thank you once again for letting God work in your life and for being such a blessing. You truly are blessed.

Hello Bryan: I saw you last night on an inspirational station. I was channel surfing late at night, and you were singing a Paul McCartney song, Maybe I'm Amazed (a song I have always loved), and I was stopped immediately by the purity and soulfulness of your voice. I'm a singer too (mostly in the jazz and R&B genre) and I don't "give it up" that often. I watched the remainder of the show with Michael ______ ?? (it was late), and I understood immediately what you meant when you said one could look at the lyrics of that song and garner an inspirational meaning from it. Hard to believe I've never heard you sing before, but I'll be listening in the future, and I will be ordering your latest CD. God Bless. Mark

Hi Bryan, I have been a fan of yours since '77! I still have all my LP's in the garage, my kids saw them and asked "what are those,Dad?" I wanted to know about a song you did years ago, i think it was called "Golden Ages" or something like that, i think it was about a christian artist who died and the legacy he left. If you remember let me know and also where i can obtain a copy. May God bless you in all the endeavors He is leading you into. I would Love to meet you someday, I graduated in 1977 when your first album came out, so i'm close to your age. I have such found memories of the music of the 70's and 80's, Keith Green, the Talbots, Barry Mcguire, 2nd Chapter, Lamb, Randy Stonehill,Phil Keaggy, Love Song, Gentle Faith, The Way and of course Sweet Comfort Band!!!

Bryan,Your new album is great. My family and I spent some time with you at a concert in Lexington Ky. a couple of years ago and I mentioned your Donald Fagenish sound. The new album seems to incorporate even more of a Steely Dan sound. Keep it up! Christian music needs more artists that appeal to tastes beyond top 40. What I would really like to see is an album and artists that produce albums blending jazz, pop, blues etc much like Sting did after the police years and of course the forementioned Steely Dan. Thanks for going that direction and as you said in Lexington not worrying too much about the record companies desire for a 3 verse ballad to hit the top 40.Thanks for the all the great music,Warren

regarding the new Joyride album, since i'm forty-ish, my favorite song is "I'll always have Jesus." My prayer is Bryan's new album will have a real good sale. I like it.i'm the fellow that took a chance on one cassette of Bryan's about 3 years ago. (i had given up on any contemporary christian music--so much of it was boringly predictable, repetitious, and mediocre.) Now i enjoy each of his CD's as a solo artist.Best regards in Christ,dean

Bryan, I enjoy your ministry very much. Many of your songs encourage me. I can't pick just one song that especially ministers because there's more than one. Your message in the songs truly edify. I can't say that many other artists have edified my walk with Jesus as much as you and the team. Thank you.

When I was Alone, Ryan's Song, Somebody Loves You...Bryan!How could I have forgotten these gems from the first album!! While my friends were still hooked on Second Chapter of Acts and Love Song (and they were good) I strayed into the bluesy/jazz of SCB and added yet another tool to bringing me and some unsaved friends closer to a true walk with Jesus. "Breakin' the Ice" was sspecial because it reinforced my thoughts concerning the first album and yet, forged new ground to explore. I guess I need to shut up before I "Have [myself] Committed".

Bryan,Caught the last five minutes or so of the "Michael E. Show" and stayed tuned beacause of seeing you. As others have stated, I have been a prayer supporter of your ministry ever since SCB [Broke Through] the Ice. Such a powerful and joyful voice the Lord has utilized in you! Someone else was yearning for a reunion of SCB amd I have to concur. Whatever bedcame of the Thompson boys? Randy Thomas did fine with the ALLIES, yet to my knowledge, nothing was much printed on the rest of the band. May those who are the people of the Living God learn to bless you by their words and actions as you have been used to bless them through yours.May Christ always be glorified that others may learn to grow in Him.Your friend,Alan

I love websites! I've been wanting to sing a song you did years ago and have had no success finding a preformance tape to be able to do it. Maybe you can help me. You did "I Love You With My Life" w/The Sweet Comfort Band and not too long ago I heard a remake on the radio but couldn't find it at my local Christian Book Stores, I'm like you I love to sing and I've always wanted to share that song myself, it is so beautiful. If you could help I'd really appreciate it. That would be so wonderful....You're last entry today was the one about the person that wished they'd never met you in this lifetime. I get so many people that come to me and say, "I want to be just like you", and I look at them in amazement because they don't realize that we can make beautiful music because of the gift that God gave us but that doesn't mean that we are always in season, never angry or impatient or brash. On the contrary because the enemy is always at work trying to dicredit us, we are apt to be even more emotional and bombarded with our feeling and emotions in this life. But, alas, it's just one more thing isn't it? Never ending, the human spirit. We're everything they are caple of being and they everything we are capable of being. I hope you can help me with the music. Love in Christ, Clementina in Houston, Tx.

Bryan, My husband and I just watched you on the Michael English show. We're long time fans of yours. We've known you are a preacher's kid and that you grew up Pentecostal, but I've always wondered something that I hope you can answer. I am also a preacher's kid and I grew up United Pentecostal. Were you United Pentecostal as well? When you mentioned tonight on the show that you grew up listening to groups that your dad would have at the church and that you'd have Bible college choirs, I just wondered if that meant Jackson Bible College, Texas Bible College, Stockton, Gateway, etc. all of which are UPC colleges. That was what my musical background included. That is a part of my heritage that I love. However, we've since broken away from the legalism that was very much a part of that. Sorry to rattle on, but you are such an inspiration. Keep up the good work. (From one PK to another)

Hey there. I just watched you on the Michael (hope i spelled that right) English show. I don't watch it often, but not because I don't want to.. anyway, long story. I saw you at the KSBJ anniversary concert maybe a yr or 2 ago. It's the only time I've seen you in concert. The whole reason I'm writing to you is because I remember something very funny that you said at that concert. A group of guys hollered "we love you bryan" and u responded with "i hope in a Godly way, brother". or something to that effect. But it was so funny to me. I just thought that maybe you would enjoy hearing from a teenage girl who remembers you.

Bryan, I fell in love with you and your style with Strong Medicine, Then I found your Mercy cd and ended up buying three copies all together, giving two away. I saw you the first time at Olivet University in Kankakee,IL. There I saw first hand how humble you are before God and your brothers and sisters in Christ. Then I saw you two other times in Springfield,IL and talked to you at the bookstore afterward.

I have been reading some of messages posted by you fans, and I am thrilled to see the love and encouragement that they have shared with you. I have been a Christian Music fan (it's almost an obsession, really - over 3,500 CCM CDs) since 1981 or 1982. It didn't take me long to discover Sweet Comfort Band. I was so impressed by not only the incredible musical talent, but the inspired lyrics, that SCB instantly became my favorite band - and Bryan Duncan my favorite vocalist. I first saw SCB in concert during the Cutting Edge tour - Incredible! And, at Cornerstone Festival, during the Perfect Timing/Farewell tour, my heart was broken when you announced that the band was breaking up. I am still amazed by your voice, and by your heart as you share God's love so selflessly with those you don't even know. That's what Christ was all about - and what Christians should be all about. I have been continually blessed by your solo recordings, and I am especially impressed with Joyride. I have also followed the music of Randy Thomas with the Allies and all of his other ventures. By the way, I saw you on your Have Yourself Committed tour at the Jesus Midwest Festival. You actually joined the Allies on stage to sing a Sweet Comfort tune (I can't remember which one). But, I though it was hillarious when Bob Carlisle had to jog your memory on some of the lyrics. Anyway, I don't know if you have kept in touch with the guys from Sweet Comfort, but I know that there are thousands of people out there that would love nothing more than to see a reunion. I'm sure the thought has crossed your mind, but I thought I should let you know how HUGE that would be.I will continue to pray for you and your ministry - and I am looking forward to singing with you in heaven. Thanks for the last twenty-whatever years!Cory

Bryan: I've been a huge fan since Lunatic Friend! Joyride definitely goes back to what God has truly gifted you in! It is phenominal! I encourage you, brother -- and look forward to hearing you live at KLTY's Brown Bag Lunch at Stonebriar Mall next month!

Dear Bryan,I have listened to your music for years and everyone who knows me knows you are my favorite Christian artist. I have turned people on to you in the church my husband and I pastor. one thing I wanted you to know is the words of your songs have been such a ministry to me. One in particular is "Things are Gonna Change." One night I could not sleep because my heart was so heavy and so broken. I didn't know if things were ever going to work out with my husband, the church, and our call before God. Some rebelious Elders in the church had done us great evil and I was devastated. As I lay awake all night the chorus of this song kept coming to me.(I had just gotten the tape so I didn't know the words) When I arose and put the tape on the very first words I heard was, "It's hard to sleep at night because of how things have been...." I began to weep and took the words of the song in to my husband and we wept together. I turned all the hurt and brokenness to my Father and the healing began that morning with "Things are Gonna Change." I bought the sound track and ministered this song to many. Thank you for having a heart hungry for Jesus, I sense it in your lyrics. I pray for you and your family and bless you to continue in the call of God. We Love you, just bought Joyride today, It is Great!! Thanks for Christian Blues, I love it.Be Blessed and please come back to Lynchburg, Va. I will help promote it with fliers and announcements, Whatever. I was there when you first came and the second time. Please come back.Love,Zee

Bryan,I have listened to your music since the Sweet Comfort band. My mother used to play the tapes when I was younger , we are actually getting ready to purchase any of the Sweet Comfort tapes that might still be available. (she played them so much the tapes quit playing) I actually had the opportunity to meet you many years ago when you opened for Russ Taff. I think you were just starting out on your own. You came out into the audience before the show just to hang out with the audience, you stopped by and spoke to my parents for quite a while and you and my dad started talking about harley's. I don't think that I will ever forget that. We go to all of your Houston area concerts, especially the KSBJ birthday concerts. You are truly a gift from God. I remember seeing you in concert for the first time and thinking to myself "man that big voice can't be coming from such a little guy". Your voice is truly an annointed talent. Your lyrics are a blessing, I have found comfort in them on many occasions. "Don't Leave Me Lonely" was played at my sister's funeral. Two of my all time favorite songs are "The Last Time I Was Here" and "Strolling on the Water". Thank you for answering the call for what God's plan was for you, to minister with your music.

Mr. Duncan, I just want you to know just how much your music touched me last night in Ventura. I have been through quite a bit in my life lately. My wife left me three years ago and I am in the middle of a divorce at this time. I lost my job last year and I am homeless at this time. I too am a Christian artist, but because of all of my problems, my management company dropped me like a hot potato. I was beginning to feel that everyone was turning their backs on me, including God, till I visited your concert last night. I cried when you sang the song "If You Pray For Me." It was as if the song was personally written for me. God bless you for giving me new inspiration to continue with my life and to get it back together again.

What a "joyride" last night's concert in Ventura was! My two grown daughters and I traveled up from Los Angeles to see you. Last summer we braved the 405 in rush hour and made it just in time to your Irvine concert. On the way home last night we were reminded of our heathen days - following Tim Curry's rock & roll band around the old south. Our lives are so different now, what a difference Jesus has made in us. My daughters and I thank the Lord for creating you - your honesty and playfulness, your incredible talent, your creativity and your willingness to share it with us. We are so glad you were born!PS thanks for signing our CD's; we loved the bar song bit

Dear Bryan, Last summer, I saw you in concert with NewSong, Rebecca St. James, Big Tent Revival, and Shine MK at Summer Jam 2000 concert at the Charleston Municpal Audiorium in Charleston. You and Rebecca St. James did a tremendous job that you sing for us one your favorites "Love Takes Time." I love to hear you sing me a song "Strollin' On The Water." I hope you come back to WV next year.God Bless,Jonathan York

Dear Mr.Duncan, I first heard you at a concert you did in Reno, along time ago. I went by myself, Jesus was my date. Your fans are great, we all had a great time being silly.I was surprised when you walked off stage and came down and greeted eveyone. You reminded me that we should never put a man in Gods place. I have held on to that all these years.The music that God has graced you to share with us has kept me close to Him through many a dark day. The words you write are like Pauls letters for our times. STRONG MEDICINE helped me unconditionaly love many people with AIDs and lead them from terminal to eternal. Thank you for understanding and singing about the healing power of our Savior. I allow your song gifts from God to correct and rebuke me and remind me, we need to always watch,pray,worship, fellowship, be reading the word and Sunday go to meetings for good times. I finally came to the end of myself when I found THIS LOVE IS WHAT I GET. As Christians we are not always honest with our selves about sin.I was so tired of fighting I almost walked away from the one I and you love the most.Renewed, restored and reminded there is an enemy who is fighting for our souls. Thank you for sharing the battles that go on in your mind.he likes to make us think we are the only one,YES I CAN! YES I DO, AND YES SIR YES I WILL has really set alot of people free! My committed call from God,for now is to hand out personal hygiene products to people, things like t.p. and tell them God is a personal God and cares for your personal needs, they always cry and then we cry and thank Him that the foolishness of God confounds the wise. I take my 80yr old Dad with me and we listen to your music.My Dad loves it. I will keep your family in prayer as your going out on the road these days to encourage the saints.Thanks Again for your obediance to your call.Your sister in Christ,Gaela

Bryan, your music is truly a gift from God. It has moved me closer to our God and has lifted my heart when times have been down. Like now, my daughter is going to Romania for two years as a missioner for the ROCK MISSIONS. They help and work with the many orphans that have become a tragic of mankind. So your music lifts my heart when I miss my daughter, but, I know she is doing God's work. Just like your music is doing for many Christians. God Bless you and continue in the foot steps that God has put before you as a singer of His Word.

I COULDN'T AGREE MORE THAT "JOYRIDE" IS THE VERY BEST MUSIC BRYAN HAS GENERATED IN AWHILE. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SOUL, THE HORNS, THE JAMES BROWN INFLUENCE, & THE GOSPEL MESSAGE. I AM 50 YRS YOUNG SO MY ROOTS WERE PLANTED IN MOTOWN/SOUL MUSIC BUT MY HEART IS WITH CHRIST AND NOTHING MOVES ME LIKE GOSPEL MUSIC. I AM SO EXCITED THAT YOUR LABEL IS GOING TO ALLOW BRYAN TO DO GOSPEL SOUL. I AM PRAYING FOR A COMPLETE ALBUM (I KNOW I AM DATING MYSELF BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS BE ALBUMS TO ME) OF BRYAN AND BOB CARLISLE TOGETHER. THE "SELF-RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS" LIVE AT THE APOLLO.

Hello Mr. Bryan Duncan. I heard today on KLOVE that you had this sight and it made me happy to think that I had a way to maybe say hi to you. I don't know if you'll actually read this, but I've thought of sending you a note for a long while. -- I was raised a christian and cut my Christian Music teeth on Sweet Comfort Band (I'm 33), and you walked me through High School with your songs, and even back down the aisle of my wedding as we exited the altar to the tune of "Paradise". What fun that was! :) -- A few years ago, Bryan, I was going through such a hard time in life and developed Panic Attacks. I was listening to the radio one day in my car and Strollin' On The Water came on ... I had to pull over as my eyes were blinded with tears. It was like God's voice was coming through that radio telling me He saw where I was and understood my fears and that I'd be okay. What comfort. I wondered if you'd been where I was as the song was perfectly desciptive of my emotions and even physical symptoms. Anyway, it ministered to me so greatly. I am so thankful. My two little girls can tell you that their Mom's favorite song is Strollin' On The Water, and for months when we'd hear it on the radio they'd say, "Mommy, are you going to drive off the road now??? (Pull over)". It still melts me inside, especially the bridge. What a beautiful picture. -- This is a short, albeit choppy note. I hope you understand what I'm saying a little at least, should you read this. Please know that I'm praying for your ministry and that you are so valuable to me ... what a gift you have. Thank you for walking me through life with your angelic (and FUN) voice and sincere songs. You have encouraged me so many, many times. -- Presently I'm preparing to sing A Heart Like Mine at our church. The words ring true in me and even if I choke hard, what a priveldge it will be to proclaim His terrific love for me, and mine for Him. -- Thank you Bryan. Sincerely, Your little sister in Christ, Kris

I'm the Production Director at Spirit 105.3 KCMS in Seattle, and today I'm working on the commercial for your upcoming concert at the Roxy in Bremerton, Washington in April. I am also checking out your very cool website and trying to come up with some clever things to say about you and Joyride. First I had better buy a copy. The cd becomes available today (normally we in radio would get a copy 1st, but the record label hasn't serviced us yet:(so I'm rushing out this morning to get one for the station and one for myself! See you in April!Roger Clark

I come to Him and sit. I don't say anything but He knows everything speaking through His gentle eyes. The love and calm assurance that I see, gives me the peace I need for another day!

Dear Bryan,I am sure you do not remember me, but we worked together at Fishnet Ministries back in the eighties. I was Larry Andes’ Personal Assistant and one of the MC’s. I most likely met you when you first got to the stage area to go over Fishnet details, take you on a tour, etc. It is a good chance that I introduced you on stage and promoted your tapes, CD’s, t-shirts, etc to be purchased up at the mall.We also had a few laughs together (along with Wayne Watson and Meadowlark Lemon). You have my kind of sense of humor!If my memory is correct, you once told me if there was anything you could help me with in the future, to just let you know. Well this is the future and I am here to ask a favor.During my time at Fishnet, my daughter always came with me. You very likely ran in to her (or she into you most likely) because she was always hanging around back stage or in the Hospitality Trailer. Her name is Heather, now 15 (going on 21). She was just 2 years old the first time we went to Fishnet! I know you must be saying by now, “Oh no – here it comes!.” Please trust me when I say this, I am truly not saying this just as her father, but as someone who has had some exposure to the Christian Music Industry. Bryan, her words and music composition are not only anointed – her voice is truly a gift from God. She has been playing the piano since she was three. About two years ago she suddenly began writing, composing and singing her songs. Currently, she has about twenty songs written and composed. Of course all of her songs are Christian based. For over a year now she has been encouraged by many people to produce a DEMO CD to give others a sample of her abilities and gifting. Through some amazing events that could only be of God, she has completed that CD. I would very much like to send you that DEMO CD for two major reasons. First, I highly respect your opinion and therefore, would greatly appreciate any feedback you would be willing to provide. Secondly, as you know very well, the Music Industry is very competitive. As a result, in addition to talent and gifting, who you know (networking) becomes extremely important. So, if you find Heather’s CD worthy, would you be willing to open some doors of introduction for her? Additionally, we would covet your prayers concerning this step in faith.I know you keep a very busy schedule so I will end here. Thank you for your music and ministry. If you would like me to send you the above DEMO CD please let me know at one of the ways listed below. Blessings,Barry KnowlesEmail: bsknowles@cs.comPS. I remember you telling me how you got started and some of the significant people who helped you. It is my hope that you would be willing to do the same.

I adore your sense of humor and if they won't take your calls then that church must be like some back east that won't play Jaci's music anymore because she made a secular album. Keep being just the way you are, we love you! Looking forward to your CD comin out this Tuesday.

Bryan,WAY TO GO ON JOYRIDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!1Got my copy yesterday at 2pm and have listened to it 4 times already! I have one more demo to hand out plus all the stickers! Thanks. Reading about the theme for each song was a treat this time around. I am glad I got the media package-what a blessing to know all those facts. 5 Octaves? My favorite on JOYRIDE is It Gets Better, however, it was hard to choose, cuz songs about Jesus are what it is all about, huh? Also, knowing that you wrote the words right out of your own life instead of what people want to hear makes me more greatful to God for you. Thank you for boldly using the Lord's name for His Glory!I'll see you at the next Orange County Concert. BTW, KFSH is a weird station, but, I heard MIA on it with the promo about the Glass House last Sunday.In Christ,Sharyn

Tried to get to Danville to see the show...I guess it's good that I didn't. However, I read the noodle and there are three things that you should know...One, a kid from my youth group, I am a youth pastor, saw the show and liked it very much. Second, the church did a lousy job promoting the concert. If even posters or radio promo had been utilized the place would have been packed. Thirdly, when I found out that you sold copies of JOYRIDE...( let me calm down for a minute!!!!) I became EXTREMELY UPSET at not having gotten a copy, let me reword this...I became EXTREMELY UPSET at not having gotten the opportunity (hence the operative word) to purchase a prerelease copy...although I only promoted FOUR of your shows in the past, and ALTHOUGH the said kid in my youth group offered to "burn" me a copy of the CD, I still refused because a. I don't want a free copy and b. I never have a "first listen" to one of your records without first having the lyric sheet in hand!!! Doth my anger seem unwarranted?! I guess I'll just wait like the rest of the punks in line and get it next week at the measly Christian Bookstore where if I find even the slightest hint of JOYRIDE promoooo for the record I shall be doubly amazed that a record company decided to spend more than five bucks on an artist without having the name Amy, Michael W, Steven C or Jars of Clay. If you so desire to send me a copy of the record, For Youth Group purposes of course, I shall be forever grateful and one day when I stand before the Lord and He asks me why he should let Bryan D into da big howse I'm gonna get E X T R E M E L Y UPSET and say, " Lord, He might be a little sarcastic, but don't forget...he did send me the CD".

Bryan -I have been listening to the "Joyride" cd ever since I got it. I have about 5 copies to go out and buy for other people when it comes out. The song "If You Pray For Me" has struck a serious cord in my life, especially the lines "Oh, I guess I've tried to hide this loneliness...I'm so afraid to come around here...'Cause you might see right through me, yeah... You know my heart feels like an empty nest...A little help and understanding...Is what I'm so ready for...Don't let this hard expression fool ya anymore..." Is so what I feel some times especially when I go and talk to a friend of mine. He always seems to see and hear the unspoken and speak to those areas in my life. So when I heard the lines in your song, I nearly dropped my cd player and said no way, that can't possibly be the words in the song. Then I looked for the words and yes they were. Thank you for a song that could be a many of peoples thoughts or requests. The song has really ministered to me. God bless you! "If you pray for me, tell the Lord I need Him!" Kathryn <><

Hi! It was so cool to hear you sing with the instrumentation you had this morning-made for quite a different version of MIA. I sure hope you missed that AWFUL traffic mess on the 91! It was nice to chat with you a bit. I've been listening to JOYRIDE over and over since I got home-AWESOME! It's hard to stay at the keyboard and type-CLAP YOUR HANDS-I just want to get up and dance-can't wait til the knee heals up so I can! We do pray for you...Re: Ventura-I heard you're singing a mini-set Saturday night, and again Sunday A.M.Is that right? (3/10 & 3/11)Hav a great week-God Bless and Sustain You...Deb

Listening to Armed and Ready and it's taking me waaay back. What an inspiration to continue to fight hard. I was in my 20's when you and the band performed at Twin Peaks. You guys were so young...we all were. Now my 21 year old son listens to your music and wants to cover some of it. God is timeless. Wouldn't it be awesome to have ALL of the bands regroup for a tour across the US? This is one of my hearts desires. I suppose I'm longing for "old" days when the Holy Spirit was poured out upon all of us.Brian, your music continues to encourage and heal. You have blessed my life for over 20 years. May the Lord give back to you in abundance.

Hey Bryan,Having been a musician since the early 70s, and a fan since the Sweet Comfort days (listening to "Ryan's Song" as we speak) I can only say that you've been a part of my Christian existance since a very few years after the Lord brought me to His family. I still enjoy the way you share your experiences with your brothers and sisters, and hope Jesus will continue to inspire you to this ministry, inside and outside the church. God is teaching me so much, but he is also reminding me that there is something to be learned from the past as well. I guess that's part of His purpose in providing a memory that recalls a lifetime. Things God did in your, and your bandmates, lives continue to teach and bless decades later. Isn't that God's way?

Bryan, if I told you how long I have been a fan you would feel VERY old right now. As I have read through your journal I can sense the stress that the road is giving you. Lost watches, bad food, grouchy Christians, etc. Any yet I know that you know that each night someone is being touched, lives are being changed. Thanks for the insight into you heart about the Celebrate Recovery gig. Humbling! Don't know if you actually read these, but I know others do so I want to take just a second and tell the world what you mean to me, a guy whom I have never personally met but would love to sit and share a cup of coffee with.I gave my life to the Lord as a 13 year old and was on fire. However within my first year my parents started to try to shape me in some ways into what they thought that a Christian should be. Part of that was the vacating of the music of my generation and being forced to listen to "Christian" music. The most exciting that this got for them was Evie and the Gaithers. I was going nuts. In frustration I was giving up on my faith because I couldn't fit in. My sister went out and bought an album (they used to make those) of Sweet Comfort. I was hooked and inspired. Soon Breakin' the Ice was released and I was amazed at the quality of the cover art (still the best I have ever seen) and the energizing sound of the Sea Winds Brass. I ventured into a lot of CCM over the years and have seen a lot of players come and go, but you remain. And your lyrics remain faithful. Your energy is still there. You are still touching lives. Several years I had my own "blond haired inspritation" and smiled as I watched him playing games out in the yard. You know why I smiled and what I was humming. He is now 10 and collecting your music (although his taste is more for the Gaithers, go figure!?!). So when you are alone in the hotel and the TV is too loud behind you, hum to yourself "Out on the Road" and remember why you do it.As for me, I am sitting in my office, suit and all, playing Breakin' the Ice. Thanks - Peace to you.Rick Abbott

Hi, Y'all! Bryan, I just wrote you penned 11/10/2000-I had to write and say-Hey,aren't we all forgiven for being human? I sn't that the point? Sometimes (like after the Late Night at Spirit West Coast) how tired you are does show on your face-all I have seen is that you have been gracious in exasperating, difficult circumstances. Keep reminding us how much God loves us in spite of our imperfection. " Thank you for sharing....."

Bryan,It's hard to keep this short. So much to say but everyone's said it all. Long time fan, feel like your my brother. You've shared with me and my family many times through the years. Sweet Comfort's farewell at the college stadium, The Biola College Gym with your kid's crawling around on the floor, many wonderful nights at the Good Time Theater with Crystal and BeBe & CeCe, the This Side Up conference at the Anaheim Convention Center and more recently the amazing concert in Santa Ana with the Big Voices Tour. I have all the same stories as the rest of your admirers. Your songs have paralleled by growth in age and in the Lord. Thank you for being a willing vessel at those moments when I was most in need. I'd love to write more but i'll just say thanks for now.

Dear Bryan,Thank you so much for all of your wonderful music. I really enjoy blasting it in my van. Even my kids like to listen to you. In fact we played the daylights out of "Last time I was here" on our road trip to Florida a couple of years back. I am impatiently waiting for more stuff.....the brass is wonderful!My question is when do you plan on coming to Colorado? We are a wonderful place to visit. I think you are supposed to be at the Praise in the Rockies this summer but I'm having trouble finding it.Thanks again for using what The Lord Almighty has so graciously given you.

Dear Bryan, you and your music have been so sustaining in my life. I first became a fan at Harvest during the Sweet Comfort days-back when my 25 year old daughter was 5. I turned my back on God soon after that, and was "out of the loop"-then I saw you at Glen Helen Park during a festival-you sang "We All Need"-I became a fan again, though I didn't realize at the time who you were. My husband and I wiished you Happy Anniversary at Mountain High-then he had a close encuonter with you in the men's room at Spirit West Coast 1 (I was on staff and was so exhausted I listened from the tent backstage). We spoke to you again at Spirit West Coast 3, then I saw you again at Pharoah's Lost Kingdom (I'm the one who hollered at you when you were going out for a bite before the concert). Through the years, wherever I am spiritually, your music has expressed what I am going through. I'm sure many people in Riverside and LA County think I'm crazy-driving down the road with one hand on the steering wheel, one hand in the air, tears streaming down my face, singing "strong Medicine" at the top of my lungs. I can't wait to see the size of the crown God has waitng for you-you'll probably need a wheelbarrow to carry it around in-or maybe you'll be 7 feet tall in Heaven-who knows? I pray for you frequently and am looking forward to seeing you in San Diego and Las Vegas. God be with you and your family...(I pray for them, too) We love you and thank God for you frequently...Deb

Hi,I was just reading my regular Nifty Noodle installment and got a bit angry. I was reading about the church in Danville, somewhere and how the church responded to Bryan's concert. Their response just serves as proof that the humor gene is supposed to be obliterated at the moment of conversion. People that don't get humor need to stay at home and polish their halos. I'll stop now before I say too much.Apparently in apostasy coz I love to laugh,Ed

I would love to see you in concert someday before eternity. If not, then definitely there. My prayer is that your music will continue to leave a lasting effect on the hearts and lives of people.

Bryan,My oldest son and I have seen you all three times you've been in Enid, OK. The second time here he and my husband ran a spot light for you. My other two kids joined us for the second time. Winter Jam 2001 was awesome. My husband and oldest son helped unload, set the concert up, worked security during and helped tear down and reload after. My middle child, Christopher was in Tulsa that night with our youth group at the Shepherd Ministries Youth Conference. He hated to miss you though. Love your new CD "Joyride!" I have a picture I took with you, my three kids and my niece after your second concert in Enid. Would love to send you a copy. Is there an address I can send it to so you will get it? Keep up the good work! God has blessed you with a wonderful voice and personality to go along with it. You are able to reach all ages and that is such an awesome ministry! You and your music ministry remain in my prayers. Lezlie

Hi there P.F.O.M.You may not remember me... Jan 3 East Bay Fellowship, Danville, CA Michelle a P.F.O.M. who had you sign my CD's once in the lobby and then again as I stood in line to get yet another minute to say "HI" and have my JOYRIDE CD autographed by you while I stood therre with the limo drivers. I wanted so much to tell you, you are the BEST artisit I know. You have touched my life in ways words could never express. Your music has brought me closer to the Lord and connected with my heart in ways not many songs have ever done. I first heard you in Riverside at an Easter concert many years ago (we won't say how many). and from that day forward I've loved you and your music and thank God for making soemone like you that He shares with all of us... thanks Brian for being yourself self especialy, we LOVE YOU!!! I was so selfish last night just hungry to get close to you and get your autograph without saying these things from the heart. You need to know how much God uses you out here nad how much you are LOVED!!!I had one of the best times of my life last night at your concert at East Bay Fellowship (formally Zion Fellowship). Brian, I wanted t0 write and tell you some things I didn't tell you last night when you s graciously signed our CD's, stickers and whatever we asked. You are the best and your music, voice, humor, heart for God, great looks and talent are a wonderful part of our lives..... keep it up, we love you man!!!! Jer 29:11

I grew up in Victorville, CA and lived there for over 11 years before moving to Texas in 1976....where I met Jesus and thereafter met you in song in the eighty's. I have been to Riverside many, many times. My grandparents lived in Ontario and I used to fly into there from LAX to get home all the time. Praise the Lord...what a small world we live in sometimes.......Just wanted to say that to you....I'm the 20 year fan that you shook my hubby's hand at Shoreline Christian Center 1/30/01. Thanks again...we bought the DVD and enjoyed the movie after we got home that night. How awesome........He on movin" on brother Bryan.....Carla

Thank you Bryan for all the faithful years of many, many inspirational songs and messages. My husband and I saw the LEFT BEHIND TOUR last evening at Shorline Christian Center and I was so excited. (You shook my husbands hand by the men's bathroom...lol....and he told you I would kill him because I have been a fan of yours forever and have waited 20 years to see you.) Well I saw and heard you and if you were listening you heard but not saw me.......LOL...I have the pentecostal SCREAMMMMMMMMM that you and I have in common. Thank you for a memorable evening.....all of the artists were a blessing.....including Kirk bacause of the tender tears he cried for us remembering how much God loved him and how awesome HE is. Many continued years of ministry to you......I WILL enjoy your fellowhship one day in HEAVEN where there will be no distance between us and no goodbyes........Praise the Lord and God's best to you and your family......good luck with your new label as well.

I know God has gifted us all in different ways, but I have been convected lately to continue to multiply the talent God has given me, and this is the area He is leding me in. I think your vocal coach is in Nashville, and I would have no problem driving/flying there for some instruction and direction. Please e-mail me when you get a chance. I do appreciate how you are allowing God to use you, and your heart.Thanks again,Chris

Bryan,I am a long time fan of yours. I first started listening to you back in 1986. Then I joined the staff of Life Changing Radio, WARV 1590AM in Warwick Rhode Island as an On-Air Announcer. While there I had the opportunity to see you live in concert with Russ Taff at Gordon College. You rocked that night, and I will never forget it as long as I live. Your Christian Testimony that night was a shining light for those "Whistlin' In The Dark". God Bless in your ministry of the future, because your ministry of the past has touched my life. I am now a soldier in the United States Army, stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. I look forward to any opportunity I get to introduce you to other Christian soldiers by way of CD's and Cassettes!

I'm the one that lives in Southern California, but was out on an extended visit to Nashville. Well, I'm back here and looking forward to catching a show.

The Left Behind concert in Atlanta,Ga. was great and a blessing to me. I always loved your music and I was finally able to see you perform. I know you were exhausted and I want to thankyou for taking your time out to sign your autograph and pay attention to what we had to say. My son (13) and I were the ones that said we missed you at the Winter Jam in Macon,Ga after the concert. I want to let you know that your music gives me inspiration and keeps me going. This last year (and still going on)has been horrible for me, because my husband got hurt on his job and left me taking care of the family (6 of us). We lost our home, car, and so many other things has happened, as well. Well,my son received $10. for his b-day and chose to pay most of my way in (my children are my blessings), or I would not have been able to afford to come. I feel like Job in the Bible, its been real hard, but I know God will see me through this. Sometimes I do get discouraged, depressed, and have doubts, but I remember to count my blessings. Jesus is Great. I want you to know that your songs keep me going and I want to thankyou. I just wanted to tell you how I felt. Please don't change and keep being an inspiration. It would be nice to here from you, but I understand on how busy you are. Ps. I wrote this message in case you did not recieve one on another sight. Also, please pray for us and I do keep you and all Christian artists in my prayers. Thankyou,Alice Pihl

Sometime around '84 my little sister,who was in the 3rd grade at the time,turned me onto Holy Rollin, when I was just beginning a long-time affair with desperation. That album peaked my interest in what I was supposed to be doing,and kept me interested enough to follow through until today. Along the way, the tapes, of course, got worn out and the CD's kept"disappearing" but I have followed your career with great interest, knowing that God's hand rests upon you in a unique way. As I've grown in years and God's wisdom I suspect I've done you a disservice by not sustaining you in the prayers I wish someone had done for me- like you- in the many,MANY songs which your prayerful heart has shared with me and for me over the last several years. I will not go on- I want to bless you, not drown you. I wanted to add a suggestion-you really have had a long and prosperous career, (at least in the kingdom sense, if nothing else)so you might consider a 4 month touring gig so you can spend 6 months in the recording studio, your fans need that, and the other 2 months, well...I'm sure your lady wouldn't mind you hangin' out wit'her.Call if you need any help in the studio. I also got some material. Blessings to you.God's love and grace upon your family.And, as far as the people talking in the front row, well, now you know how your 8th grade teacher felt.

Bryan -It was so good to see you again last night on the Left Behind Tour. I am really looking forward to JoyRide coming out. During intermission and just before you came out to your table after the concert I was promoting Joyride, radio 4-40, and club 4-40. I was asked several time which of the cds were the best. Of course I said all of them. (smile) Anyway, just wanted to let you know again, how much I like the song "Maybe I'm Amazed" and how much of a blessing and comfort it was to listen to during the time my grandmother passed. She was 96. It was also a comic relief to hear the ADD promo on radio 4-40. You were awesome last night even though your voice was a little shot. You get some sleep!! And the rest that you do get I pray the Lord multiplies it, so it feels like you have rested well. This tour is really touching peoples lives. Would have liked to have caught the winter jam tour, but not this time. I Joyride is going to go over well, people were ready to get it last night. God Bless You and your Family!! Love You! kit-e-kat

I'm a SCB fan dating back to the very first album. I still regularly feature SCB music on a weekly Christian rock radio show that I host and produce for a mainstream rock station here in Greenville, SC (rockofagesradio.net). I've been told by REZ drummer John Herrin that SCB will be performing a reunion concert at this year's Cornerstone festival. That alone would be worth a trip to Bushnel, IL! Please let me know if this is true, will the concert feature the original members, what date is the performance, etc. Thanks!

Bryan: Saw you last night at Winter Jam 2001 in Chattanooga.You were great! I started listening to you on your Mercy cd and can't wait until Joyride comes out! Thank you for your ministry. You don't know how many times I have listened to your cd and thanked God that someone has written in song what I feel in my heart. I think the song that fits my soul more is "A heart like mine". We don't deserve God's mercy and goodness but nonetheless He loves us still. Please continue to do what you are doing. I enjoy your bluesy style and the fancy footwork you did on stage; also Maybe I'm Amazed was wonderful! Looking forward to seeing you in Chattanooga again. It's really a great town with people who love the Lord. Respectfully, Renea (another of the short people of America!)

Hello, Bryan. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your amazing gift as an artist with us, the fans. I started listeningto you on the "Mercy" album. That release touched my heartin so many ways. At the time, I would have a friend of mine'sbrother commit suicide and a few months later, my own brothercommit suicide. Songs like "I'll Not Forget You," "You Don'tLeave Me Lonely," and "Faithful to You" were a part of the healing process for me. Your music was a healer for me. Youcould just feel the power of the Lord through these songs.Needless to say, you are as fantastic as ever and I am gladto see you have a new release coming this Spring. I'm excited and I still have "Left Behind" to get me by till then. Thankyou for all you have done. Jesus' light truly shines throughyour ministry of song.Thanks,Scott Davisson

Hi Bryan,Just got a copy of Joyride to review for Cross Rhythms magazine here in the UK. here's what I've written. I'll talk to Ray and see if we can hook up when I'm over from England for GMA week. It amazes me that Bryan Duncan's music just seems to be getting better with every fresh release. The Renaissance that began with 'Blue Skies' which continued through 'The Last Time I Was Here' is bearing even more fruit on this latest outing. It's an apt title as this is one musical journey that is completely characterised by joy. A change of record label has given Bryan a new lease of life! Previous companies seemed to handcuff his natural funkiness and make the mistake of dumping his grooviest tunes to track 8 or 9 but "Joyride" kicks straight in with a James Brown style yelp and a horn driven abandoned "I'd Like To Thank You Jesus". He's definitely up for some fun and "Everything In The Garden" is a playful story of Adam and Eve, all jazzed up. A guest appearance from Ashley Cleveland on the supremely groovy "Clap Your Hands" only helps you appreciate what a pair of incredible singers they are. Stylistically, Bryan stretches things out nicely throughout and for once I'm pleased because although the ballads are great and allows him let those emotions out, I just love it when he pushes the boat out and let's loose. He gets down to some serious funk with Donnie McClurkin on "Where There's Love" and at the other extreme he turns McCartney's classic love song for Linda, "Maybe I'm Amazed" into a gospelised celebration of the amazing grace and love of God. Vocally he's never sounded better and it's incredible to me that in a career stretching back to the seventies, he's never performed in the UK. With the high standard of recent releases, it would definitely be a case of better late than never to get him over here!

Bryan - Would love to see you agan in Central FL. You went to Southeastern College with some of my family members. They told me how they would not let you sing with their group, but they would let you play your guitar and sing while the offering was being taken... How nice:) You are still performing - they are sitting behind a desk!!!You are the best. You are always in my prayers.Jeff

Bryan, I've been an avid fan of your since 1988. We're the same age and I've always felt this parallel connection with what you're going through and how you express it. Just want you to know I surely would never talk through one of your sets!! My 14-yr. old daughter expressed that the next time you're in our area, she wants to come, too. I brought my husband to see you at Jammin' Java in MD in '99 and we both loved it. Lord willing, we'll be at Jammin' Java in VA this April -- with teen, too! My 6-yr. old son always asks for one of your tapes when we travel, and my "Last Time I Was Here" tape just broke from overuse! Thanks so much for keeping faithful to Him and making music for His glory. You'll always be my favorite musical artist -- hands down!

Thank you for the song Traces of Heaven. When you performed at Belmont Univ. a few years agao, with Bob Carlisle and Rebecca St. James, I took my husband. This was his first Christian concert. When you were introducing your Traces of Heaven Medley, you said that you hoped it would help someone like it had you. You hoped that someone out there could relate to the words of that song in particular. I sat there and listened to the words very closely and came to the conclusion that I wasn't going to be able to relate to that song. One week after the concert, I my husband confessed that he had had a one time affair with someone at work. We had only been married 4 years and had two beautiful little girls ages 2 & 3. With my broken heart, as I would drive to work and especially on the days that I would have to drive on business to Clarksville, TN, a 1 hour commute, I would listen to that song. I could now relate to the words. They burned in my mind and heart. Especially the part about forgiveness. I listened to just that one song for at least 4 months, everyday. Finally, I was able to forgive my husband. We, through God's grace and MERCY, were able to work out our problems and now my husband is the most humble Christian man that I know. I just wanted you to know what an important part of the healing process your song played in what could have been a permanent broken relationship. Thank you Bryan, and please keep singing and writing those life changing songs!!Blessings,Joy

Not too much I can say that hasn't already been said, cept maybe thanks to your wife and sons for allowing you to be shared with the world. As a wife, married to a workaholic,(who seldom leaves town) I get mighty lonely. May the most you pray for be the very least you receive. I hope 2001 will be a fill up year for you so you can continue to pour out to people like me. :-)

The first time I heard "We All Need," I finally realized that I wasn't the only person alive that wanted to live for Christ, but knew I couldn't live up to the standards I'd been raised to believe Christians had to live by. Shortly after that, I gave my heart to Jesus. Thank God for you, Bryan. You are my angel. Your lyrics gave me the strength to take the most important step I'd ever walk - the one that gave me eternal life. I love you, and I pray that your walk with God strengthens each day.

Hi fellow Club 4-40ers....My girls and I had a blessed time watchng you at Harvest Christian Fellowship performing with a choir and music from your Christmas album. I heard heard Bryan Duncan's name before but didn't give it much thought. After I left the Christmas Even service at Harvest. I couldn't stop talking about the music and the singing that we had enjoyed. I "procurred" some of Bryan's music and my faves are: Love Takes Time and We All Need. I have listened to your CD on the way to work and have wept because those words are probably what a lot of us think in our hears but are too ashamed/proud to say. I would like to Bryan....keep up the great work and thank you to his family, friends and others who support his work.God Bless :)

I have seen you 4 times over the years; at a jr. high school around 1980 via Sweet Comfort, twice in the High Desert the California Crusin and Lunatic (my favorite album) tours, and last September in Paso robles Calif. You were great as always, but I gotta say when I read your noodles....man you really beat yourself up sometimes! But I guess being a sanguine, that is just the nature of the beast. Thanks for the great work and ministry and I look forward to this new album, you having some fun, it may be just the therapy you need!

Hi Bryan, I needed to tell you that your music has helped me greatly in my newfound Christian walk. I just became a Christian January 21st, 1999. I was a professional singer in the casinos in Atlantic City, obviously not singing for the Lord, anyway, I moved back to Columbus, Ohio to start my life over. That's when I became a christian. Music meant a lot to me and one of the first things I thought about when it came to christian music, was that it would not be very "cool" so to speak, or to my liking. My sister had one of your albums, "Mercy", and said "here, try this christian music on for size". Well, I was overjoyed!!! I have been an enormous Tower of Power fan and your music was just the ticket, not to mention your incredible voice that sooths my ear and gets my juices flowin'. I love your music and it has opened me up to soooo much more. After being a christian for a year, God gave me my singing back by letting me join the band at our church and by becoming our praise and worship leader. We do contemporary christian music and I must say, you are my very favorite!!! I saw you in Columbus last year at King's Place. I was able to talk to you for a minute or two. Sadly to say, the place wasn't packed, you seemed a little down, but your performance was incredible to me and I left even a bigger fan of yours that when I got there. I just wanted you to know, that even thought there weren't many people at that concert, God still used you in an incredible way, I am blessed greatly because of your music, so thanks, Bryan!!! God Bless you, please, in more ways than you ever dreamed of. I will continue to support your works and keep you in my prayers. Again, thank you for your music and that you were willing to give your gift to the Lord. Love in Christ Jesus, Kimberly

Dear Bryan- Hi, my name is Charity Barr and I want you to know how much I appreciate your music! My first live experience with your music, was a concert you did in Tacoma, WA. with Russ Taff. You were both incredible and I have collected both of your music ever since. Being a PK. myself, it was nice to know that there were a few that "turned out okay." ha ha I saw you again in Seattle around 1990 when you were traveling with Allies. I had never heard of them before, and after they had opened for you, my brother and I looked at each other, and said, "Bryan is AWESOME, but how is he gonna top that?" Of course, you did, because they were YOUR BAND! My brother and I still talk about that night and how much FUN we had in God's Presence. Being Pentecostal PK's we have always enjoyed your "Holy Rollin'" song! ha ha I wish you a blessed New Year and look forward to your new release with great anticipation! Proud to be a PK, -CHARITY

You have been and continued to be a groundbreaker and visionary in the music world. God has been by your side throughout everything you've ever done. You are what his voice would sound like. Thanks for everything... B.

I spose that shows how my tastes have shifted from hard rock to blues, eh?I do have an idea for you also. You sang parts of a new song, based on Genesis, that told Eve's story and you said you weren't finished causeya couldn't find a way to 'wrap it up'. Howabout using the last verse to tell about how God tells Eve that it'll be her 'seed' that defeats satan? Y can't beAt singing about Jesus...God bless, m

Bryan I wanted to let you know how much i appreciate your music. When my 13 year old Jacob suddenly died 5 years ago from a gunshot wound to the head we played the song "You don't leave me lonely" at his funeral. Many people were ministered to by it. Also I'll not forget you was comforting to me in the dark days that layed ahead. When Blue Skies came out I was in awe at how God used the song "Take another look at me' at a time in my life when only HE knew what would reach me. Its as if that song was created just for me. I'm still in awe of it and it remains "My Song" to this day. I wanted to let you now how much your music ministers to my spirit and to thank you and to let you know that I thank God for you also.SincerelyJeanne

Dear Bryan,I just wanted to let you know how incredible I think you are. I've been a christian my whole life, but just recently discovered christian music. The first time I heard your voice I was captivated, and when I heard your lyrics I could hear the genuine admiration,and deep love and respect for the lord. Your lyrics are beautiful and when listening to them one can hear the true devotion you have for Jesus. I think the songs "I'll not forget you", and "You don't leave me lonely" are my favorites. I just wanted to let you know how appreciated you are. Hopefully you'll be in concert close by me sometime!!!God bless you.

Dear Bryan:I saw you last weekend in Joliet, IL. You put on a great concert. You were kind enough to sign our CD's and talk with us a little afterwards even though you had a really bad headache. I felt the crowd was rather subdued (esp. for an Assembly of God group), I don't think they knew who you were, they came to see their church choir sing! Your new songs on JoyRide are great. I esp. like Maybe I'm Amazed, you really do it so smooth. All things work together, as you know, although the other record label dropped you, it was in God's plan. May you have much continued success - you deserve it - you bless us with your honesty and bring us face to face with Jesus Christ. God Bless & Merry Christmas to you and your family. Suzy

Sorry about waking you and Paul up to give them to you. Hope your personal trainer doesn't hate me for it. If you ever want any more, you know where to find me... Also, I wanted to thank you again for the new CD. I didn't get a chance to really thank you afterward, so THANKS! I listened to it all the way home from the concert.

He made a cassette for me with most of your music and too this day, still listen to it. Your music keeps in check with "The Lord", especially when I've strayed from him. Any chance you'll be in Peoria, Illinois? Thanks for the music your god given talent.

I'm 39 yrs old and for over 20 yrs. Brian Duncan has been my all time favorite artist. Sweet Comfort Band is the original Christian rock band. My first exposure to SCB was the song People Get Ready. I've been hooked since.I myself was in a Christian band and wrote several songs and I must say Byran's influence was always there. Randy Thomas is still the best gutarist in the Christian music industry I've ever heard, and I'm was happy you still used him in some of your earlier stuff.My 15 yr old son has been exposed to the cosmic donut all his life. I'm sure its had a strong influence in him being an extreemly talented musician. I pray that he stays in the Lord and can see Bryan Duncan as a model & influence. Thanx for staying faithful to the Lord through all these years.

Bryan,I met you a long time ago up in Everett Wa.Sweet Comfort Band did a concert and your transmission went out on your truck you were using to haul all that stuff. I had to repair the transmission for you all. I dont know if you remember, but your road manager who brought the truck to us because it was broken, he invited me to go to the concert. It was awsome to see the name of Jesus lifted up by a Rock Band. That was in 1980 or 81. It is good to see you are still going on and your an inspiration. God Bless

I commend all of the actors who were in this movie and the Left Behind song is one of my favorites.I urge all who read this to buy this or rent this because it tells Revelation as it is to come to pass. Thanks again Bryan, your music has and will bring people to CHRIST.April

Bryan-I'm a fan in the truest sense of the word. I've been listening to your music since 1984. I enjoy very much listening to it. I remember it took about six concerts before I finally got to meet you and have you sign my "Mercy" tape. And how when the original signed tape was ruined I wrote you and ask you to send me a signed CD. The fact that you go the extra mile for your fans is a real blessing. I look forward to listening to "Joyride" when it comes out next Spring. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Julia

Am really looking forward to Joyride and my 9 year old daughter has the shirt now. My Catholic husband really enjoys your sound and your concert about 18 months ago at our church was the first he came to. He came the other night, too, along with some other friends who kept asking me which CD each song was from! Keep the faith, stay strong and you are awesome! Love to you Brother!PS - who were your influences growing up - we love your funk and soul!

You know...the one at the baseball stadium. Sorry I'mso slow responding--I'm your age--with a toddler...thinkabout it! (He's a true blessing, though.)

Bryan, I was at your concert at El Camino Christian Church last Saturday. You were awesome! I first heard you at Calvary Chapel in the 70's. Through the years you have been my favorite singer. So many of your lyrics and tunes have given voice to my thoughts! I've laughed and cried while listening to different songs. By the way, your Christmas album is our family favorite, especially Christmas is Jesus.Can't wait for Joyride!

Hi Bryan! Our family came to see your concert at the New Life Center in Santa Cruz on January 23, 2000. After the concert, we were getting your autograph when you said something nice about my son's boarding jacket. He has not stopped talking about that and I thank you for making his day. Your music is a part of this family's life on a daily basis and my husband and I are really looking forward to your concert at El Camino Christian on Dec. 2. God Bless you and your family, and please don't stop making music!

Hey Bryan, looking forward to seeing you again in February at the Winter Jam when you're in Winston-Salem! LJVM (the coliseum) is right down the street from my campus... maybe me and any of the other 440 people who end up being there can bring you over to Wake Forest for coffee in our coffeehouse. Sound good? :) I hope so! Take care, buddy!

Hi Bryan, I came across your web site, when I was trying to find the lyrics for your song "You Don't Leave Me Lonely". I really enjoyed reading your Nifty Noodles. 8) Thanks for being such a "real person" rather than a star struck, big name performer. May God Bless You and Your Family as you continue to serve HIM!!!!! I look forward to reading more Noodles in the future!!!

Bryan - Greetings from Western New York! God Bless you for the way you are faithful to Him. The music he creates through you is candy to so many people's ears! The first place I enjoyed your music was with the Sweet Comfort Band at the Buffalo Christian Center. Have Yourself Committed came soon after and I have looked forward to each one of your new releases. I love your nifty noodles, it allows a window into how to pray more effectively for you on so many levels. :-)I feel, although it was no cause of my own, that if you have not received an apology for the circumstances of the concert you performed at Kingdom Bound, Darien Lake in 1999, consider this official. The wobbily keyboard stand, immoveable spot light and screaming fans on the Superman roller coaster in the back ground provided a challenging atmosphere. My husband and I enjoyed every moment. Long live your flexibility and great sense of humor!Many Blessings, Carrie

Hi. I would like to introduce myself to you. My name is Trisha Bridges and I am working on a website called Teens4Jesus Youth Group. I have been trying to get in contact with various Christian artists, authors, and speakers for email interviews to post on our site. I was wondering if you could help me out a bit. :-) Is there something we can set up maybe? An email interview? I would greatly appreciate it.The story of our site is kind of long, but I will give you some basicinformation to understand us. The people who work for Teens 4 Jesus Youth Group are all volunteers, many of them still in high school. Our age ranges from 14 to 28, so all of the staff are young and in touch with the needs of the youth. None of us are trained in counseling, youth ministries, or anything else. We all simply have a desire to reach out and help the youth of this world. Our site has only been online since January, and already things are booming. We have a few different mailing lists with more than 50 subscribers, daily devotions, Bible studies, chat, stories, testimonies, advice, and evangelism help. There is still a lot planned for the future of the site so things are ever changing. We are registered with various search engines and I am continuing to promote us throughout the web. We ARE still looking for sponsors and are filing as a non-profit organization, but have faith that God will provide til then. :-) You can see what we have at http://www.teens4jesus.org by clicking on entertainment and interviews, or by going to http://www.teens4jesus.org/entertainment/interviews/index.htm. Each interview also has a link to the group's official website, for some free promotion. We try to cover the entire spectrum of music, touching on each different style of music. Interviews have been set up with everyone from the huge names down to the new groups with no labels. If you have any further questions about our site please contact me. Weare a nondenominational group scattered across the United States. God is awesome in how He has brought us all together.You can see our site at http://www.teens4jesus.org. It is being worked on daily by a few of our designers, with some major redesigns after we made it through the last major attack by satan, which was a major hacking. Other larger projects are in the works for us as well. We have great plans for the group. If it is Gods will. :-)Let me know what you think.Your sister in Christ,Trisha BridgesTeens 4 Jesus Youth Grouptbridges@teens4jesus.orghttp://www.teens4jesus.org http://www.unityinchrist.nethttp://www.christianwebassociates.net

Bryan, Just wanted to let you know that my family and Ireally enjoy your concerts. We flew down to Conyers, GA inOctober to see you at the bazaar. Even though it was cold I think we would have stayed for hours to hear you sing. Your songs are very inspirational to us and we will see you whenever we can. I have been looking for your live videosand haven't had any luck finding any. If you or anyone who reads this will let me know where to get one it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Kathy

I was so happy that I wanted another one, but by the time I had got another picture you had left.I have been to most of your concerts that were held at Saddleback Church.I have even been tothe one at Mariners Church(June 22nd 2000).My best friend came to that concert with me and my family.

YOUR SONG WAS SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO ME THAT I HAVE BEEN YOUR MOST ARDENT FAN EVER SINCE. I TRAVEL WHENEVER I CAN TO SEE YOU. - EVEN WENT TO VANVOUVER, WA.TO SEE YOU AND HAVE BEEN TO SAN DIEGO SEVERAL TIMES. I TRULY ENJOY WATCHING YOU PERFORM AND THOROUGHLY ENJOY YOUR CDS. I HAVE "CHRISTMAS IS JESUS" IN MY CD PLAYER ALL YEAR LONG! I FIRST GOT TO KNOW YOU WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND AND I WENT ON THE CRUISE A FEW YEARS AGO. IT WAS A PLEASURE MEETING YOUR WIFE AND BOYS AT THAT TIME. I WISH YOU PERFORMED MORE IN THE ORANGE COUNTY AREA. WHY NOT? THANK YOU FOR MANY MANY HOURS OF ENJOYABLE LISTENING TO YOUR MUSIC. YOU HAVE BEEN A REAL INSPIRATION TO ME. SIGNED - A DEVOTED FAN - CAROLINE WASSER

Donna asked about the song "things are gonna change", how it came to be.... I was in counseling seeking advice on some things in my life that I couldn't deal with... the counselor said rather matter of factly after hearing every last detail of my awful situation... " bryan, It won't always be like this!" I was dumb founded and irritated at the moment, but I eventually took great comfort through my circumstances, that I was moving along and nothing would stay the same. Stay faithful my friends we will reap if we don't faint first.

Hi Everyone! I just found this website through jamsline.com. I've been growing up to you Bryan. I'm 17 and my aunt has every CD you've made. She used to Copy them then pass them out for Christmas. Anyway, It's so hard to find music that everyone likes. Everyone in my house loves the good Jesus music. Thanks!

Hello Bryan,I remember when I was sixteen, I came across your music living in Rochester,NY. It touched me greatly from SCB to your latest. I'm thirty two now living in San Antonio,TX. I have a few of your latest CD's, but it is nothing like my records that brings me good memories when I was young and confused. Your songs helped me to focus on Jesus, inspite of not having all the answers to my life. As a musicain myself and as a minister of the Church of God, you wrote about your music being edited, the Bible also has been edited thru out the century's, but the MESSEGE is the most Powerfull, life changing Messege any man can ever hear. Your music, wheather you like or not, has been a stepping in my spiritual life stone in my life. I told my wife, I always believed that you were ahead of your time when I was sixteen years old; with all the screeming and wild look for my parents at the time. Today the people love it, and you still got it!!! Saw you in San Antonio,TX 10-27-00.Love Your Music.In His Service,Perry Santana

Hi Bryan,Just love the song"Things are gonna change" on Soul Revival. It really ministered to me and where I am at in my 20 year marriage..Am curious how that song came to you?

Bryan:When you stop being human, that's when I will stop listening to your message. I'am so impressed that you actually took the time to write in your own home page. Sometimes we can expect so much that we fail to see (beyond our expectations). And then we get lost in what we expect a Christian to be, forgetting that we are very much human... just as God created us.... then we become unhappy, cynical, depressed, degressed..... ughhhhhhAnyway, Jesus cleansed the Temple because of His convictions. Maybe...just, maybe, you are, afterall "a little Jesus", as the word Christian denotes. And, Paul, he was a little feisty, err, alive also. I hope that I can meet you one day. Next time you are in Tulsa, OK I will definitely be there (again).Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the inspiration you have given me through your music and life.To God alone you stand or fall.Carolyn

Someone wrote that they'd wished they had not "met me face to face in this lifetime". You should know that I will never be as nice in real life as my songs sound. The songs have been perfected and edited... I try to do that with my real life but life keeps changing. I do my best usually to be kind but I'm not always. I'm not always patient or long suffering either. I think I've said that in my songs too.... "I find it easier to curse than pray". I'm sorry for whatever happened in your impression of me, but I'm not suprised.

"Dave" wrote in suggesting I need anger management because of my noodle comments about the new radio station KFSH here in Southern California. Dave, that WAS anger management! I simply wrote my comments down. I also informed the manager of the station about my feelings. It's not a lack of unity that compels me to express my opnion. I donated my time to the stations efforts. I'm more than happy to support KFSH...my expectations I'm sure are not a consideration now anymore than when they sell the station for a profit later to someone who turns it into a country and western format.

As a fellow musician, I first heard "Blue Skies" while listening to christian music on Direct T.V. The song ,the lyrics everything is together. I had to hear more of your music. Then I got your greatest hits and heard "Step By Step", well all I can say is, out of sight! Please e-mail me back as to sheet music for all your great songs. Your music blows me away. No one even comes close! I would enjoy very much to see you in concert. We live in north Florida Go Gators!!!

Hey Bryan, I just thank God for you and your music. What a wonderful talent that the Lord has given you. I know that sometimes you don't see yourself as others do and I really wish that you could. You have been such a blessing to me and Karl. And I know you can't always see the seeds you are sowing but brother you are. We both enjoy the concerts and the times aftewards that we have gotten to spend time with you. Look at all the people God has used you to bring together at 440. I know that 440 is not exactly how Pete and Larry had invisioned but, God had a bigger plan. I'm so glad that God brought you into our lives and the people at Club 440. What a blessing. I just want you to know that Karl and I love you and will always be here for you no matter what. We love you for who you are. And that is a fact that can never be changed.

My first album of yours was "Slow Revival" and I was amazed at how you read my life story in that ablum. You made me cry, laugh and shake my head all at the same time. I look forward to your new album and wish you'd come to Canada and do a concert where I could see you. You're one of my favorite Christian artists.. just be yourself..:) Praying for ya!!

Hi! Got a chance to see you at Summer Jam 2000 in Mobile, AL and all I've got to say is that you get better with age!I just wish we could have had more of you and less of some of the others (though they were good).It has been a long time since those days at Calvary in California where I first heard Sweet Comfort. Of course, I'm alot older now... Attending California Baptist College I had a friend bring me to your church out there and it was a first for me (to hear rock and roll Christian music)I'm proud of you and what you have become. Glad to see that whatever mistakes we've made, we are still forgiven and serving the Lord. Bless you brother and hope to see you out this way again.Amber

Bryan D - I'm 38 years old and have been enraptured by YOUR MUSIC for about 23 years now. What an incredible talent! Also, I find myself relating to you from a "born on Saturday and was in church on Sunday" aspect; I was raised in an Assembly of God church in the midwest and remarkably still love God with all my heart (a small attempt at humor). I hate to "gush" because I'm sure you have been numbed by the accolades of your fans, but you make my soul soar! Keep the faith & scream it LOUD.
