“Raise Him Up” is our tribute to the Easter season and what it means to us. These songs express our experiences and feelings we have with God.

"Songwriters have the ability to turn life lessons and experiences into songs. For some, they write what they know while others, feel compelled to share the stories of others. Either way it is due to the romanticization of love and loss. It’s not easy to reflect your innermost thoughts on paper with pen but one songwriting team who’s putting a voice to our lives is the song writing team Cabela and Schmitt. Their songs are the compilation of all experiences in a person’s life from romance to finding your path. Cabela and Schmitt says the things that need saying and create song stories that teach lessons to generations of listeners. The music they are creating often has nostalgic elements appealing to a wide audience. They understand the power of great lyrics in telling a story and it’s through their music that people can come together and relate to each other more honestly. Cabela and Schmitt finishes out the year with a beautiful song about reflection. The song is soothing with nostalgic tones further supporting a reflective theme that infuses well with the melodic chorus and lyrical content. I enjoyed the harmonies. They have such a wonderfully pleasing tone in a chaotic world. Thankfully Cabela and Schmitt are always there bringing us music that makes us feel less alone. 'Wondering' is really all about those relationships we’ve all had with other people, that maybe we never did quite figure out or understand at the time. We all at times reflect on these past relationships and sometimes we might find ourselves still trying to make some sense out of these past unknowns. At the very least we try to take all the positives we can throughout our life relationships, and attempt to let go of as much of the negative as we possibly can, and continue to live on".
--A.V.A. Live Radio

"Hi Cabela and Schmitt. What an interesting song. A soft rock, somewhat alternative with indie, sounds great. You guys have a lot of potential, we congratulate you. We will share the song for sure. The song will be on the Groover playlist on Spotify and on our 24 hour radio for a month. We will also share it on social media.
Best regards from Colombia".

"As I stated last night on Facebook, you're the most versatile group I've ever seen. You have a GREAT message too. Much love."
~Larry "Tez" Tezekjian of Tez FM Radio, March 1, 2020

"Cabela And Schmitt Finish 2019 In Style With ‘What You Say’"!
"Ending what was a spectacular year, the trio have treated us to a fantastic single entitled ‘What You Say’. A single written by the band, about the way people treat one another, how they talk to each other and how their words can either be loving, encouraging or sometimes hateful, leaves a powerful message that rings through with each and every listen. With plenty of new material coming in the new year, Cabela And Schmitt are destined to make their mark on the music industry next year".
~Dylan Smith, EDM House Network, December 29, 2019

"Known for their incredible and heartfelt writing, the band has the ability to stun an entire audience due to the vocalist voice and lyrical depth".
~Ben Ali (Keep Walking Music), April 29, 2019

"Cabela and Schmitt are worthy of a follow and as they seem to get better with every new release. We can’t wait to see and hear what’s next".

ORDER OF SONGS ON "RAISE HIM UP"

1. RAISE HIM UP (4:28)
He gave His life for all the sinners; He gave His love to you and me. Alleluia, alleluia, singing praises to the Lord!

2. ALL (3:53)
"All" is a tribute to someone who came into our lives and helped us learn and live and love.

3. WHO YOU ARE (4:17))
Recognizing there is one who is with you at all times guiding and leading you through your path of life. Understanding the absolute awe in how astonishingly some situations can completely humble you.

4. TESTIMONY (3:18)
Testimony is basically the story of my life. Knowing that there is good and evil in the world and it is something we all have to deal with day in and day out. It is how we react to situations that keep us going forward or moving backwards. An upbeat song with plenty of energy. Looking forward to letting all of our listeners experience it!

5. YOU'RE WITH ME (4:12)
Have faith and trust in what you believe. Know that the gifts, dreams and love come from above.

6. SO YOU COULD RESCUE ME (4:30)
A reflection of the last days in the life of Jesus Christ and how it ultimately affects our lives today. The idea that we are rescued from our own self destruction because of the love someone we've never met in person... is quite compelling.

7. NOW THAT YOU KNOW (3:58)
Pray and listen. Soon you will trust and know that He is here.

8. GIVING IT UP (4:00)
"Giving it Up" is a song about giving up your demons and surrendering to something better in your life. Searching your past and seeking to remove any wrongdoing with the hope that you can be forgiven with love, understanding, and healing open arms.

9. TRAIN COMIN' (3:13)
The song speaks to the possibility that our souls may be in jeopardy of being lost in the abyss and how we need to be aware of how we act and represent ourselves to others.

10. WE'RE NOT ALONE (3:44)
Speaks to the fact that there are powerful forces within our world that we can neither control, dispute nor duplicate. Embracing this power and allowing yourself to flow with its rhythms can be beneficial to a happier life.

11. GIVING A RAINBOW (3:49)
It is inevitable that every one of us at some point in our lives ponders life after death. Every day we are alive on this earth gives us another opportunity to make our choices. This choice can only be made by one person...you. Nobody else is going to choose your destiny for you. It will be a glorious day!

12. CALL UNTO ME (3:27)
"Call Unto Me" is a plea to be a righteous man in an unrighteous world.

13. WE CALL HOME (3:21)
How long have we been talking about changing the world? For generations… and it will continue indefinitely. Mostly the world does not change nor will it. Really we all know it is ‘people’ of the world that need to change. We are all people of this world and we all have to change to do our part. It really is a wonderful world and it will become all that more wonderful if we can all become ‘more’ wonderful.

14. THE LIGHT (3:21)
The eye is naturally drawn to the light. In life, as we grow, if we imagine the light being our path to success, we can blossom into whatever we want to become. The light represents something good and compelling, happy and full of the living. Bright and shiny like love and understanding, beauty and wonder. And sometimes we're looking for that light.

15. WHO WILL (4:54)
Who will love you, define you, refine you, improve you, believe you, unfold you, please you, adore you, implore you, compose you and take you home?
