Well folks, we've got some big news. We'll let this video do the talking …
Faith, Hope, & LOVE
Now that we’ve updated you about where we’ve been, we’d love to tell you where we’re going! In case you missed our year-in-review update, check it out here.
When we were preparing for our first album, we knew we wanted it to be called Setting Sail. This is because we were embarking on a musical and personal voyage. We didn’t know if our sails would catch any wind. We didn’t know if music would take us anywhere ... Thanks to you, it did! It was a leap of faith, and the album became an accurate snapshot of that leap.
When we wrote Turn the Page, we had gone through a lot of hardship and change. So we set out to write a story-like album that traveled through the brokenness of this life and encouraged the listener to “take heart,” “read on,” “and remember to turn the page.” As such, it became an album of hope.
“Till We Go,” the final song of Turn the Page, says, “We’ll have faith, hope, and love along the way.” With our first album being about faith, and our second about hope, we realized we have a clear task ahead: an album about love.
As many of you undoubtedly caught the reference, St. Paul said, “Now faith, hope, and love abide ... But the greatest of these is love.” Because love is the greatest, we feel like this album needs to be greater than our previous two! So while the task is clear, the path is daunting. We have our work cut out for us, but we’re excited for the challenge!
Stay tuned for recording and release dates!

2020 in Hindsight
Way back in September 2019, we got away for our annual planning and prayer retreat. As you might expect (especially those of you who know us well), we had a blast making puns about our “2020 Vision.” Like other years, we had no idea what would happen, but prayerfully made our plans as best we could …

S I N G L E:
Read On
“Read On”
Written by Benjamin and Chelsea Peck (BMI)
Another year, another chapter
Filled with tears or filled with laughter
And you wake up where you are without a warning
Thinking of what could have been
Or maybe just this mess you're in
But nightmares and dreams alike are over in the morning
CHORUS:
So read on, read on
Keep on following along
You don't have to give up hope to welcome change
Greet the new day's dawn
Let yesterday be gone
You don't have to close the book to turn the page
Line by line, hour by hour
The taste of now becomes more sour
'Cause it hurts less to just give up than it does to really care
One more mistake, another lover
Another book judged by its cover
And you think you know the end before you're there
CHORUS
Don't let yesterday's heartbreaks get in the way
Don't let yesterday get in the way
Don't let yesterday's heartbreaks get in the way
Don't let yesterday get in the way
CHORUS
Turn the Page will be available everywhere there is music ... Friday, 8.10.18!
Album Pre-Order Available NOW!
New music is almost here!
We are currently on our Turn the Page 2018 tour. If you would like to host us for a concert in your area, please reach out and let us know!

So excited to turn the page with you,
Bino & Chelsea

Dreamers Dream Dreams
Dear friends,
We all have dreams—and those dreams are a gift. We strive to take care of them, cultivate them and bless other people with them. In moments when voices (external or internal) tell us that we cannot dream or should not dream, we need to remember that no one can take the dreamer from the dream ...
... and no one can take the dreamer out of us.
If you are a dreamer dreaming dreams this song is for you.
Love,
MR & MRS SOMETHING
You can't quench the fire, you can't take what makes me free You can't take the dreamer from the dream You can't touch desire, you can't hold what you can't see You can't take the dreamer outta me
Song Lyrics:
Verse 1
You can tell me that I can't, that I will never be
You can lock me in a cell, and throw away the key
But I won't let you keep me down
Chorus
You can't quench the fire, you can't take what makes me free
You can't take the dreamer from the dream
You can't touch desire, you can't hold what you can't see
You can't take the dreamer outta me
Verse 2
You can tell me I'm no good, that I will surely fail
You can take away my wind, and tear apart my sail
But I won't let you count me out
Bridge
I'll keep chasin' what I see
This will be my victory
I know who I'm supposed to be
You can't take my hope from me
I'm Headed HOME #Tunesday
This week marks a year since our grandma passed away. It is hard to BELIEVE that it has been that long already. In contemplating our loss and what death means for all of us ... we did what we do ...
... we wrote a song.
It is in our struggles that we realize that this earth is not our eternal home. Our grandma BELIEVED this. And so do we. There is ...
... HOPE.
And so this song is for all of you, who like us, need to be reminded of the hope that we are not yet HOME.
Today's #tunesday song is very special to us. We wrote it for our grandma, who passed away a year ago, this week. Although she is no longer with us on earth, we have HOPE that we will see her again when we also arrive HOME.
Love,
MR & MRS SOMETHING

Mr & Mrs Something Back in California!
At the end of January we concluded our adventure in Costa Rica. It was a wonderful experience filled with friends, music and service. We look forward to when we can visit again!
Meanwhile in the Midwest, a few of our friends put together a tribute concert to honor Buddy Holly and we joined the evening through video. We wanted to share the cover song with you. Enjoy!
Our friends in Illinois hosted a tribute to Buddy Holly this past weekend for the 58th anniversary of his tragic passing. This was our contribution to the evening! We hope you enjoy our version of "That'll Be the Day."
“That'll be the day …”
All the best,
Mr & Mrs Something
Pura Vida #Tunesday!
Hello again from Costa Rica!
We hope this Tunesday finds you happy and well. Here's another song we wrote last year that we translated with some help from a friend. As they say in Costa Rica–Pura Vida!
“Eres paz en aflicción.”
This is another kids' song that we wrote last year. Many thanks to our friend, Gerson Valverde, who helped us translate it. Disfruten! :)
Con amor,
Mr & Mrs Something
PS: This February and March, we will be traveling through California and Oregon. If you live in one of those places and are interested in hosting a house concert, please let us know!
