Artist description ASLAN IS…Aslan consists of Pete Zolli (voice, guitars, synthesizers), who also writes the songs, Steve Blake (bass guitars) and Keith Prescott (drums and cymbals). The music was recorded at Steve’s studio, Toad Hall, during the Winter of ’00-’01. Pete produced, Pete and Steve engineered. Because of various pressures and commitments (wives, kids, jobs, lives), Aslan is (at present, anyway) a studio-only band… IS THIS CHRISTIAN MUSIC?..Well, I guess that depends on how you look at it. The lyrics of the songs deal with Christian concerns because, as songwriter Pete says, “Christ’s atoning work, my salvation and the salvation of others, and the Christian walk are a lot of what my life is about. Musically, I don’t think Aslan is much different from any band with the same set of influences. Except better, of course!” While Pete and Keith are Bible-believing, church-going Christians, Steve belongs to another faith entirely. However, all the members of Aslan are equally committed to good songs well played…SO:..We at GoodRecords hope that if you, the listener, enjoy this kind of pop music, that you’ll enjoy Aslan, regardless of your religious affiliation or lack of one (how many radio hits have we enjoyed with out thinking much about what they were saying to us?). For the listener who is interested in lyrics, maybe that appreciation can be deeper. Pete says: “I’m essentially doing a form of apologetics in these songs. There are those who say that Christian apologetics is as much for the believer as the unbeliever, and I think that’s true here. Some songs are direct challenges to the Christian on doctrinal and life issues, some challenge the moods and thoughts of the times, and some are simply narratives. I couldn’t be happier than if something here made you think, no matter what you thought already. With all of that said, I hope you like the tunes, anyway.”
