Max Manon - Find Somebody



This song is for the single, the lonely, the insecure, and the third-wheel. It’s about trusting and believing there is someone out there for you, but being very sad and impatient in the wait. This song is fresh from the press, released just yesterday.

Max Manon is a pop artist from good ol’ Tulsa, Oklahoma. His biggest musical influences consist of ska/punk band, No Doubt and avant-guard, pop sensation, Lady Gaga. Having been so greatly influenced by artists such as Gwen Stefani and Gaga, Max couldn’t help but to acquire a strong interest in the fusion of fashion, performance art, and pop music.

Max, born Matt Bingaman and known to his friends and family as Matty Beh, was aware of his creative spirit from a very young age. Not knowing exactly how to channel his creativity, he jumped from hobby to hobby trying to find the right outlet. Guitar lessons were a flop, then piano lessons, he took a whack at painting, took some art classes, he then bought an expensive DSLR camera and took a real good whack at photography, but something just wasn’t right. Max couldn’t seem to commit and worried for a moment that maybe he wasn’t an artist after all. He then picked up a pen and put his doubt, fear, and frustrations to paper. He would sing the words he wrote as he cried. Something clicked. Then he began putting his joy, excitement, and glory to paper. He sang the words he had written as he cried tears of joy this time. It was that moment Max thought to himself for the first time, “Now this is something I can commit to.”

Max Manon began his musical journey with debut single, Worth the While, released August 31st, 2018. In the time since, Max is the most inspired he’s ever been and is eager to release new music this fall/winter.

"Clothed With Dignity" by Grace Frances: Trading Shame for a New Identity

Your worth was never up for negotiation.  Grace Frances wrote “Clothed With Dignity” from a place most of us recognize (in some form or other) but will rarely admit out loud. She carried old regrets like a second skin, calling herself names that her past mistakes didn’t deserve. “I demonize the girl I was, when she was just trying to survive,” she sings, and that line hurts. Haven’t we all judged ourselves for choices that we made while simply trying to get through the day? Even choices that seemed to be fine in the moment, but proved to be otherwise over time.  Grace’s breakthrough didn't come from fixing herself, but from surrendering… surrendering to God. “You clothe me with dignity,” she declares, describing a moment where self-condemnation lost its grip and grace took over.  Grace’s story is fairly similar to the story found in Isaiah 61:10 —  “I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; h...

"Just Believe" by For Him: When Doubt Isn't Disqualifying

Can you believe without having all the answers? Some people wait at the edge of faith for years, arms crossed, waiting to feel ready. “Just Believe” was written by For Him for exactly that person — the one who wants to trust Jesus but still carries a list of questions. The song grew out of that in-between space, where doubt and faith sit side-by-side and neither one of them wins outright. Gritty Southern-rock guitars carry lyrics that ask a two-thousand-year-old question: “Could Love have worn a human face?” The answer to that question brings purpose and comfort to our lives. The song doesn’t demand certainty before you move. It invites wonder instead. “You don’t have to shape your future // He begins where you can’t reach.” The message and intent of this song make it clear that you don’t need to figure out everything first before you can take a step toward God.  A man quoted in the gospel of Mark understood this tension better than most of us. Desperate for his son to be healed,...

"I've Got Joy" by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe: Why Joy Isn't the Same as Happiness

Sorrow and joy can share the same room. “I’ve Got Joy” by Tyler Philip Ratcliffe was triggered by a telephone call. Tyler reconnected with an old friend who’d been going through a period of loneliness. Tyler shares: “We talked at length about the season of loneliness he was experiencing, and we discussed a few other topics that are reflected in the verses.” This triggered Tyler to tackle this concept of having Joy, and it became clear that “I’ve Got Joy” isn’t the same as “I’ve Got Happiness” . Joy is more than happiness, and it certainly isn’t a painted-on smile. Tyler makes that distinction on purpose, because he’s writing about the nights he spent “down to my last prayer,” and about sitting “in a room full of people” while feeling completely invisible. He’s writing about all of the kneeling and “begging for the answer to a question I can’t speak.” That’s real, and that’s most of us, on our worst weeks. The chorus takes us back to “joy”. Tyler sings: “I’ve got joy in my lungs, ye...
