time freeze moment

Happy Monday Everyone,

No need for a formal introduction considering we’re all family and all. So FAMILY, FRIENDS, those FAITHFUL to the cause, we are here to declare the wait is over. We wrote you 13 days ago to announce our very first music video would debut on the 19th of July. However we proposed that if you would be so kind to help us add 207 people and reach 1,000 “likes” on facebook by doing so before the 19th, we’d release the video early and drop all merchandise to 25% off. Well it’s the 18th and as of this time typing you have helped us reach 938 likes on facebook, 145 more than we previously had. We’ve noticed you sharing St. Bagu, and we’re not so rude that we’d completely ignore that. So… you won’t be waiting till the 19th for our music video. In fact here it is, our very first music video to the song “Time Freeze Moment” (off the While We’re Waiting EP).

This song was chosen because it’s tied deep into the core purpose for everything we do. There is a message bigger than ourselves, constantly at work, living, acting, conducting the most beautifully unconventional, yet fulfilling moments of our lives. The things we try to accomplish on our own power and wit but fall short of. So… aware of the presence of the Master Conductor of the World’s Largest Orchestra, human life, we stand in awe of His creation and these moment’s where He so brilliantly moves. Thank you Lord!

We try to capture the heart of that Truth in this video and we are completely excited about the end product. This video was self produced by St. Bagu(and wives) all the way down to the editing and finishing touches done in house by our very own Freddy Bustamante (www.thinkoffbeat.com). We believe in this, and we ask that if you do too, you share this video with everyone you know and convince them to do the same! We’re still aiming for far beyond 1,000 “likes”, so continue to share and when it comes to promotion, this video will prove to be your trusty companion you use.

Regardless of how many people “like” us on facebook, we like you all. So if you want to stock up on merchandise the offer is still good and we are still dropping all of it to 25% off for the next week. So from today 7/18 till it hits midnight 7/25 get yourself some merch on the cheap!!! http://stbagu.bandcamp.com/album/lines-ep And while you’re at it, download our free EP “While We’re Waiting” featuring “Time Freeze Moment”. http://stbagu.bandcamp.com/album/while-were-waiting
Till next time kind people of the world, we love you and encourage you to LIVE BIG, LIVE CAPSLOCK!!!

Seriously we guarantee you will NOT be disappointed.

So when can you see it? That’s up to you really. When would you like to see it? As of now we are planning on releasing the video two weeks from today on Tuesday, July 19th. However… as our faithful friends we are asking you to help us get to 1,000 “likes” on facebook and if you can make this happen we will release it THAT SAME DAY! A lot of work has gone into this video. A lot of heart was put into it and this song. We believe the message is important and are intent on seeing to it that as many people view this video and hear this song as possible. On top of that, if you help get us to 1,000 “likes” on facebook before the 19th, we will drop all prices on merchandise to 25% off for ONE WHOLE WEEK.
