BEC Recordings’ newcomers The Museum is thrilled to release their debut single “My Help Comes From The Lord” on iTunes today as it gains radio momentum.

The instantly contagious melodies carrying a scriptural message on the first single, “My Help Comes from the Lord,” has already hit the mark as it moved up three spots to No. 26 at AC Indicator as well as becoming new and active at AC Monitored, CHR and Inspo.

Inspired by Psalm 121, lead vocalist Ben Richter shares, “While reading in Pslam, I connected with the words, The Lord will protect your life. He will watch over your coming and going both now and forever. It is a great reminder that when we lift our eyes out of the darkness and focus on Him, our faith will be strengthened!”

This song is connecting with listeners across the country:

The label debut, Let Love Win, was recorded in Nashville, Seattle, and Atlanta with producers Jason Ingram and Rusty Varenkamp (Tenth Avenue North, Brandon Heath, Sanctus Real), Aaron Sprinkle (Jeremy Camp, Kutless, Hawk Nelson), and Jason Hoard (Shane & Shane, FEE).

In addition to putting the finishing touches on their July 27, 2010 label debut, The Museum will hit the road with label-mates on Kutless’ headlining “It Is Well Tour”, which begins this week.

The Museum took shape when singer Ben Richter and guitarist Geoffrey Ashcraft moved from Texas to Georgia and plugged into a church where drummer/programmer Josh Kirk was the janitor. Soon they were leading local worship services together and then traveling on musical mission trips overseas.

In Romania, Josh was deeply moved to be part of a large Christian gathering in the same town square where communism had been overthrown in 1989. A nearby museum containing humble evidence of that revolution also left an indelible impression.

The name The Museum came about as they hope the music they share can be the evidence that Christ has done a revolution in their hearts. Together, the band partners with Overlooked, a company that donates proceeds from t-shirt sales to provide clean water to children in Africa, help free young girls from sexual slavery, which is a global issue, and feed victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

The Museum are: Ben Richter (Vocals, Guitar) Geoffrey Ashcraft (Guitar) Josh Kirk (Drums, Programming) Chris Brink (Bass).
