“Many Moons,” the New Album by Trumpeter Markus Rutz
Label: Third Coast Sound
Markus Rutz & Third Coast Sounds announce Many Moons, the latest musical expression from the well-regarded trumpeter and composer.
Many Moons is the ninth album from Rutz following the recent albums Storybook (2023) and Penumbra (2024) and features music in small group recorded with contemporaries from the Chicago scene. The ensemble sound is reminiscent of Rutz’s previous Blueprints recording project, extended by more grooves, styles and compositional nuance.
The new work is a continued acknowledgment of the present frame of mind for the musician, contemplating time as expressed in titles referencing the moon and periods of time, with the original tunes By and By, Before We Met, Penumbra, and also including Time to Spare, a composition from Brice Winston. Familiar standards Blue Skies, Moondance and Blue Moon play with the album theme and concept.
Musicians contributing to this recording have a large part in creation of the band’s sound and include friends and associates from various times in Rutz’s musical life. Brice Winston plays tenor saxophone on this third project together, Sharel Cassity plays alto as a second album together and this is the first album with Greg Ward, also on alto saxophone, who plays the closing piece and contributed as producer of the album. Bassists Christian Dillingham and Samuel Peters share the bass chair for their second albums together, as is the case with Matt Gold on guitar and Gregory Artry on percussion.
Whether to find good feelings, inspiration, solace or just a momentary respite from the saturation of global events and circumstances we face, the album is intended to provide just such a soundscape. Many Moons is an invitation for you to unplug, unglue, unwind and enjoy the first album from Third Coast Sounds.

Christian Artist Mikey Loy Releases Powerful Single “SUICID3” for National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month
SUICID3 delivers a bold message of hope and redemption, addressing one of the darkest battles many face, suicidal thoughts and the weight of despair. Loy, who lost his own brother to suicide, pours his personal grief into the song while declaring victory over the spirit of suicide through the power of Jesus Christ. The music video portrays his raw journey of mourning, wrestling with the temptation to follow the same path, and ultimately surrendering his pain to the Lord, choosing life and faith over death.
“This song is for anyone standing at the edge of life and death,” Loy explains. “I want them to know there is a way out, and His name is Jesus.”
In a heartfelt call to action, Mikey invited individuals who have lost loved ones to suicide to submit their photos for inclusion in the music video, turning personal tragedies into a memorial of hope. “God turns what the enemy meant for evil into good,” Loy adds, echoing Genesis 50:20.
With a growing catalog of faith-filled music available on all streaming platforms, Mikey Loy continues to use his testimony and artistry to reach the broken, the hurting, and the lost. His website, mikeyloy.com, offers access to his press kit, contact information, social media links, and additional music.
