Daily Planet: Time To Go...

Back in August, we had to cancel all of our engagements because of Jesse’s shattered leg. After Jesse’s lengthy recovery process, it was just too difficult to get things back up and running.
We are heading in our different directions under the best of terms, and hope that God will bring us back together at a later date. However, for now, Danny, Seth, and his wife Kristina are living back in California, while Jesse and his wife Marisa are living in Oregon. Some very good news is that Jesse and Marisa are expecting their first child in September!
It is unclear what the future holds for all of us individually, but Jesse will continue to play shows as a solo artist. You can keep up with his schedule at www.JesseButterworth.com
Please keep the band in your prayers during this very strange time. It is of utmost importance that we continue to heed God’s call on our life. And even though it is difficult to follow this path, we are reminded of what Oswald Chambers wrote over 100 years ago. “You cannot help suffering; it is a true and needful training for the soul that dares to be true to God.?
Thank you all for being so wonderful and encouraging over the years. We still believe that the Daily Planeteers are the best in the world. Please continue to support Jesse on his solo endeavor, and we all hope to see you again in the future.


God bless you all,

Jesse, Seth and Danny

"We are heading in our different directions under the best of terms, and hope that God will bring us back together at a later date," said the band in an e-mail.

Frontman Jesse Butterworth will continue to make solo appearances. For more information, visit JessseButterworth.com.
