Slanted Records
Slanted Records has just announced the signing of Texas-based rock band Inhabited to its family of artists. The band's Slanted debut will release in the fall of 2007.

Inhabited features Sara Delight along with her brother Marcus Acker (guitars/vocals), Chad Carouthers (bass/vocals) and Charlie Harper (drums).  The band was the first artist in Christian radio history to chart as an indie band in the Top 20 on both CHR and rock radio formats with their song "Rescue Me."

The Slanted debut release, produced by Monroe Jones (Third Day, Chris Rice, Mark Schultz) along with Acker, was finished in April. The first single from the new album is scheduled to hit radio in June.

Featuring songs that show definite musical growth over their 2005 indie release, The Revolution (Review), much of the material for the new album was written by Sara and Marcus.

“So much of this album really has to do with love,” Sara said in a press release.  “We are commanded to love God with all of our hearts and to love our neighbors as ourselves.  That overarching theme of love is a continuous thread throughout the album.”

Derek Bruner, the national radio promoter for Slanted Records, said, “Getting to partner with a band like Inhabited is an honor for us. The level of ministry that they exemplify is inspiring, and their energy is contagious. I'm excited about the songs on this release and can’t wait for the marketplace to hear them."

The band is currently preparing for promotional tours and summer festivals, including Ichthus.
