I just heard Solomon's Wish at my church this morning for the second time. I bought their album and encourage any Christian out there to do the same. They have incredible talent vocally as well as instrumentally. They are an acoustic band that has incredible harmonizing abilities as well as the ability to rock. They will appeal to any age group that enjoys contemporary Christian music, especially young people. The songs all have deep meaning, one of the best is "Grand Scheme". The music and lyrics will minister to you, they said this morning the Lord gave them this one. These guys have a deep love for the Lord and people which is very evident when you speak with them. I've listened to this album, after getting it this morning and each go through makes me enjoy it even more. If you like meaningful music and lyrics from a really talented group (as well as three very nice guys who love the Lord) this is the album for you.

Solomons Wish is a very talented band. I would'nt say I am a fan of accoustic music but this band just blew me away. The harmony between the members of the band is simply breathtaking. The vocals and music blend together almost perfectly. Solomons wish is a band that truely loves God with everything that they have and their music definitly shows it.The lyrics to almost every song gives praise to God as the way it should be.This band is'nt just about performing but their purpose is to bring the gospel to as many people as possible and to help to build or improve your relationship with God. I hope that you buy this album, give Solomons wish a chance to present God in a way to you that you may not have known him before. I also hope that you see them in person if you get the chance,they are just simply AMAZING.

This CD is amazing! I had the hardest time finding it out here on the west coast--maybe because they're a midwest band--but it was worth it! Their worship is totally based in scripture--so awesome! This CD is worth having in your collection. Fireside and Grand Scheme are wonderful songs, as is Waterfall. God is definately in the music of Solomon's Wish.

I just have to say that I've only had the Solomon's Wish CD for about 2 weeks, but I'm completely in love with it. The harmonies are amazing and the lyrics are so incredibly moving. You can really tell that this band has a love for Jesus. They sound a lot like a cross between Bleach, Switchfoot, and 4Him, and they are AWESOME!

I bought this album as I buy many of my Christian CD's. Just in the hope it would be something different and inspiring. I am one of those who although I love Christian music, will not listen to it unless it is pretty good stuff. It has to have more than just a message. This album delivers big time. Every song on this album is very good AND very meaningful to the Christian walk. I can't wait until they come out with a new one.

I got a chance to meet the members of Solomon's Wish at Spirit Fest Midwest in Minnesota, and found them incredibly easy to talk to. Then I heard them play and was blown away by their talent. It's easy to make a band sound good in a studio, but to get 4 guys on stage and have them sound just as tight as their CD is incredible.

Their songs use a good mix of metaphor and scripture to tell stories, along with straight ahead praise and worship lyrics. The music is pretty much straight ahead pop-rock, but the vocal lines and lyrics keep it interesting throughout. Favorites of mine include So Help Me, for it's simple message that all of God's creation need to cry out at some time - "so help my unbelief!"; Mary's Alabaster Jar, mostly because it made me go back and read the story of Mary anointing Jesus's feet and how what seems a simple act can mean so much more; Ten Miles Wide, which is lyrically really cool (the last word of each line in the chorus is the first word of the next line - maybe that's a musician thing), but forces me to reflect and pray that my faith is deep-rooted, not just for show; and God is Alive, which looks at all that God has provided and proves that He is still here, alive in all of us. This CD definitely has heavy rotation in my car's stereo!

I first heard of this group when I went to one of their concerts with my daughter's church youth group. WOW!!! They are great!!!

Their music just really breaks His message down to simple format - He is there, just ask and He will hold on to you!!

Great group! I recommend it for young and old alike.

I asked for this cd for my birthday only knowing one song on it, "Learning to Fly" and I simply fell in love with the cd. The songs are wonderfully sang and written. The words really witness to you. "Grand Scheme" is among another of my favorites. All the songs are great. I recomend this cd highly to you if you like 4Him.
