Take the electronica/trip-hop styles of Frou Frou, The Postal Service, and Moby, mix it with soft piano and guitar, add in complex, layered vocal sections with lyrics which have a message of hope and you have Lancaster Transit, a duo born out of the frustration of the static, non-evolving state of the Christian music industry. Melissa Lancaster, the producer and vocalist, creates vocals reminiscent of Imogen Heap with words of hope in a dismal world. Zach Gannon, the instrumentalist half of LT, creates fusions of jazz, trip-hop, orchestra, pop, and electronica which mesh to form truly unique songs. Both write the lyrics and melodies together, forging a sound comprised of both members, not led by a frontman (or woman in this case). Their debut full-length album, "Aliens and Strangers", is out now! Pick one up today!

GREAT Effort
author: Danno
This is great. Maybe a little too close for comfort to some of their influences, but the cd overall is great. Nice flow from track to track... nice variety too! Def a worthwhile purchase.

Good Stuff!

You can't adequately describe this work; you just have to hear it. Each time I listen I appreciate something else about it. Thank you for providing evidence that God created us to be like himself: creative.

AMAZING!!! UNIQUE!! NOTHING LIKE IT!!!
author: Jeane Rattler
There is NOTHING LIKE THIS out there!!!! I am amazed by the complexity of the rich harmonies and word combined with the thoughtful potentcy of truth found in the lyrics. This CD is nothing less than amazing. $13 is a steal. It should've been $25. I would've paid it.
