My lovely wife Gayle joined me for backing vocals (soprano and alto) for the Americana Xyra Styles 3 contest submission, done with the Seclude Style. This song is dedicated to all my friends and besties on the Forum and elsewhere who have been going through some bumpy times lately. Hang in there peeps. Keep the faith. Keep on Rising Performed By David and Gayle Snyder https://soundcloud.com/davidsnyderchannel/keep-on-risingV1 The preacher said it and I know it’s true I got a mansion up in the blue While I’m here, I’ll be like you, mama Every day I’ll do what I have to do CH Gonna keep on rising, up into the sky Gonna keep on rising, ‘til the day we die Don’t ask me how, don’t ask me why Gonna keep on rising to the sweet bye and bye Sweet bye and bye V2 This world is broken, but we’re still alive And the Lord has promised we will survive A man of faith, he doesn’t need any alibis He’ll look his maker in the eye, his maker knows how hard he tries CH: Bridge: And you can’t break me down Cause I can hear in my heart that trumpet sound And you can’t break me down Cause I’m praying now, on Holy Ground CH: Gonna keep on rising, up into the sky Gonna keep on rising, ‘til the day we die Don’t ask me how, don’t ask me why Gonna keep on rising to the sweet bye and bye Sweet bye and bye All music and lyrics copyright 2017 by David Snyder/ASCAP/Day of Faith Records Lead Vocals, David Snyder, Alto and Soprano Vocals, Gayle Snyder Song: Keep on Rising 2:58 Style is _SECLUDE.STY (Seclude Dramatic Newgrass) RealTracks in style: 2421:Bass, Acoustic, RockabillySlapBoomChicka Ev16 100 RealTracks in style: 2458:Strings, Rhythm CelticWaltz Ev 100 RealTracks in style: 623:Banjo, Background Backporch Ev 098 RealTracks in style: 1765:Guitar, High-Strung Acoustic, Fingerpicking Pop16ths Ev16 085 RealDrums in style: PopAmericanEv^1-a:SS 1/2 BB, b:Snare Half BB *******************

Bravo, David! Right off the bat, those banjos are addictive - the vocal delivery on this is incredibly suiting to this sort of style I could absolutely imagine hearing this on the radio! Thanks so much for sharing, you should be proud of this one!
Cheers, Deryk

Wow, wow, wow! I love the banjos so much in this one! I feel like banjos don't get the recognition they deserve, much like the accordion! There are so many great instruments out there that people just overlook.
Excellent use of the styles! <3 And lovely touch to have your wife sing with you!
Cheers, Ember

Cool style - and you wrote a super song to use it on... one of those songs that seems like it has been around forever like an old favorite...
Nice to have Gayle join you. (I thought her vocals needed more reverb to set them back some - they seem dry compared to yours).
Your creativity never ceases to amaze me...

David and Gayle,
Picture us after a day's hard work in Anne-Marie's garden and then finally getting back inside for a warm cup of coffee. And then..... turning on the computer like we always do, even log in to the PG page. And then..... just by sheer coincidence happened to click on the song you guys just posted. And then..... we picture how the two of you doing this thing together, enjoying every minute of it.
Well, we have to say it shows! Very nice work guys!
Rob and Anne-Marie

David,
This is a great groove. I love the way the chord progression moves between major and minor. It's terrific to hear Gayle, too! You're quite a team.
As I said on Soundcloud, from start to finish this is an excellent journey.
It's enthusiastic thumbs up from me... both of them!
All the best, Noel

Oh yeah! If you get that rise thing going then keep the momentum up...it can be elusive.
Y'all done good and we enjoyed the results! Wonderful choice of RT's for the lyric and vocals.
