Driscoll, Phil
Along with the debut of the Phil Driscoll Music Group comes the release of not just one, but two new recordings from Grammy and Dove artist extraordjnaire, Phil Driscoll. Representing two distinct sides of this versatile man, "Plugged In " and "The Quiet" greet the new millennium with Phil's unmistakable voice and legendary trumpet sound.
Produced by Bill Maxwell (Keith Green, Koinonia, Andrae Crouch, Helen Baylor), they both feature an all-star lineup that reads like a who's who of the music industry - Abraham Laboriel, Alex Acuna, Dean Parks, Bill Mason and Michael Thompson, just to name a few. "Plugged In ", Phil's pop/AC offering, already being hailed as one of Phil's best ever. kicks off with "Forever, Ever Land". The song, one of two co--written by Phil and the legendary Billy Preston (The Beatles' "Let It Be", "White and Abbey Road" albums, not to mention Ray Charles and the Rolling Stones) soars in its allegory of Heaven. The rest of the project follows suit, with a distinctive freedom and sound of the new millennium. Phil's cover of Eric Clapton's "My Fathers 'Eves" is not to be missed - a very fresh take on the classic hit, from a heavenly point of view. The tenth cut, "I Love The Lord" is a deeply moving experience in itself. Phil's vocals are backed up by members of Jack Hayford's Church On The Way Choir, directed by the incomparable Rose Stone (sister to Sly) and a legend herself in the industry.
Listening to "The Quiet", Phil's light jazz instrumental album is a relaxing and soothing musical journey. It is meditative, and even romantic. You can't help but to feel a sense of wholeness and wonder as you 'Plug In' the peaceful sounds. "The Quiet" is destined to reach the vast audience that loves the sounds of Windham Hill, John Tesh and Yanni, but it goes one step beyond...
Phil blasts into the new Millennium, from the first cut on "The Quiet" playing a shofar (ram's horn) trumpet-like but more mysterious and haunting. Both of these two new projects, "Plugged In" and "The Quiet" break new ground into the 21st Century. Representing a new venture for Phil, a new sound, a new approach, and potentially a vast new audience. Their sounds are sounds of the times, from an artist who is distinct, versatile, and continues to be innovative. Listen and enjoy the music!
The name Phil Driscoll is synonymous with great music. His trumpet, voice, heart and soul have moved audiences around the world for more than 20 years.

The man, the music and the message Phil portrays have withstood the test of time. His message of hope is paramount in the music he represents and the life he lives.
From Grammy awards to the applause of presidents, as well as, prisons to missions of mercy, the sound and message of the music coming from the heart of Phil Driscoll rings strong and true. From performances and recordings with rock and roll legends like Joe Cocker and Blood Sweat & Tears to classical music recordings with the London Philharmonic orchestra at CBS, the trumpet and voice of Phil Driscoll is the equivalent of greatness. An accomplished composer and writer, his music has been heard in countries all over the world, including Singapore, South Africa, Europe and Russia, to name just a few. His appeal is truly universal.

On a personal note, Phil's regard for his family plays a major role in his life. He has a wonderful and beautiful wife, Lynne, and three children. His sons, Shawn and Jamie, and his daughter Danielle, have inherited much of their father's heart for music.
If music is a gift from God, when you hear this music you will undoubtedly agree that Phil Driscoll received a generous portion.
