1 "Mormon Pop: American Idol" Deseret News - LDS Newsline blogger Quint Randle, Friday, Jan. 25, 2008, The 'Quick Notes' section says "Meanwhile, artist/engineer Clayton Pixton of Kansas City takes a totally different approach with “Hymns Anew”, even though both artists cover “Come Thou Fount.” Pixton’s 12-song collection offers up acoustic/vocal style arrangements. Instruments include piano, guitar, tin whistle, and of course lots of neat vocals, says Pixton on his web site. Both albums are definitely worth checking out."
