Mr. Weaverface releases new Christian rock single ‘These Lungs’
Independent Christian Rock musician from Bernville shares praise song to God for getting him through COVID pneumonia
Mr. Weaverface, an independent Christian rock musician from Bernville, recently released his new single, “These Lungs,” a song that gives thanks to God for getting him through the tough trials of COVID.
“I ended up in the hospital with COVID pneumonia and a pulmonary embolism in my right lung,” Mr. Weaverface said in the release. “I was on high-flow oxygen for a couple of days. Fortunately, my breathing became easier and I was released from the hospital after nine days.”
As his condition improved while resting at home, he had a severe coughing fit in the middle of the night. The following day, he noticed that something didn’t feel right in his chest and that his breathing was worse.
“I went back to the hospital by ambulance,” the musician, whose real name is Brendon Weaver, explained. “The good news was that my pulmonary embolism had resolved in my right lung. The bad news was
that my left lung had collapsed and that there was also a large softball-sized lung cyst.”
The collapsed lung and lung cyst led to having two breathing tubes inserted into his chest. His hospital stay lasted another 15 days,
but he was finally released.
“I still have some lingering breathing issues from all of that, like feeling short of breath,” Mr. Weaverface said. “I have been slowly improving, but I’m just thankful to God for being there and getting me through that horrible situation. I wanted to write a praise song that combined the suffering I went through and how good God is. Hopefully, the song will resonate with a lot of people who went through what I went through.”
On the song, Mr. Weaverface does vocals, bass and electric guitar. Drumming on the song is Timothy Jackson. The song was recorded, mixed and mastered by Jonathan Sambrick at Thornwall Studios in Lititz.
