..the release of the spiritual album...
About the music | Response | Father Lannan
PATRICK AND MICHAEL LOONAN played for years at the Lower Church 10:30 Mass at Nativity
of Our Lord Church in
The Day Has Come, a collection of acoustic based songs
all written by Patrick Loonan, is a love letter to God and the people of
Nativity. "Today I Will Walk", one of the songs on the album, was
heard often at
"Succinct harmonies--the
kind that can only come from 2 brothers. Consistent flow of
tranquil sound to calm the kids, calm your heart, calm the air and let
God's peace in."
-St. Patrick's Guild

Patrick and Michael were delighted to receive a note from EWTN (Catholic Cable Network) personality Jeff Cavins, host of the network's "Life on the Rock" program, with thanks for sending him the CD in response to suggestions for possible guests on future programs. The producers of the "Decision Today" program by the Billy Graham Organization also graciously acknowledged receipt of a copy of the CD.
The Minnesota Association of Christian Songwriters also had kind words for "The Day Has Come"...Nikki Frizzell of the MACS told the guys the CD was "great. You are obviously blessed with talent."
A listing for Patrick and Michael's CD in
the Summer 1998 issue of SingOut! Magazine
sparked some inquiry. A radio station in
"How Long (the Shepherd's Song)"
got some airplay over the 1998 Christmas season on radio stations in
There's more music to come. Patrick and Michael are planning a second CD collection of original spiritual material. The guys have some songs they've performed in church not on "Day Has Come" that they've been getting requests for!

In Loving Memory FATHER PATRICK D. LANNAN Pastor,

Come" liner notes: "We want to thank our dear friend and pastor,
Father Patrick Lannan, for his great faith, love, spiritual direction and
generosity. The gift that he is cannot be overestimated." Father Lannan was a motivating supporter of the music on "The Day Has Come" and was loved and admired by those who knew him. May he rest in God's peace. (Photo used with permission of the Catholic Spirit) |
