Joel Auge
Here's a "new" artist to check out for those of you who haven't heard of him. Quick history lesson. About 9 years ago Joel's first band, Capstone, appeared on a compilation album along with Downhere and my first band Hot House. It was called the Warehouse Mix. Actually, Thousand Foot Krutch was also on that compilation. Capstone had a couple of great songs on there. I always thought they deserved way more recognition. It was actually the same World Vision artist retreat that I met the Downhere boys at where I also met Joel for the first time.
Anyway, he's got some great new songs and Integrity has picked him up and are helping him with this new release. Joel got a bit of a break this week. Check out the Christian & Gospel section of itunes for a free "Discovery Download" of one of Joel's songs (U.S. customers only). Go Joel!!
Or just go to his myspace page to listen. Tell him Glenn sent you!!!

Highly recommend this album!
Any chance the Potatoe House Band could be coming out with a new album?
Joel Auge is fab!
i've heard his name every once and awhile...but all of a sudden he's exploding.... he's everywhere!
i even heard that Kevin Max was just in Canadaland writing some songs with Joel.
