I love to listen to music. I love to make music. I am blessed to be able to do all of these things, usually at the same time. Born and raised in Michigan and having spent some time living and writing in New York City and Portland, OR, Schicker now calls Atlanta, GA home.

Josh Schicker: The words, "Faith, the Poor and Politics," come directly from the lyrics of the song, "Heaven's Pavement", which is about spiritual pride and how can it keep us and others from experiencing grace. Most of the songs were finished and recorded before I chose it and it was not an easy choice. When did you release your first album? How has your music evolved since then? JS: My music has been on a journey from being an individual artist to an artist in community. My first solo release was in 2001. It was recorded in the gothic-style chapel at Hope College in Holland, MI with simple instrumentation and a lot of natural reverb. Since then I've recorded a full studio album in Nashville, a live EP and several independent projects I recorded by myself at home. In contrast, this latest project was made possible by volunteered time by nearly everyone involved. As the title, it is the best I could do to summarize the themes of the whole project. The songs range from personal reflections on love and commitment to religious zeal and introspection.
