Honoring a Legacy: Meadows Releases Heartfelt Tribute Album for Late Bassist Brandon Dabbs

Birmingham, AL – Meadows unveils For a Good & Faithful Servant, a stirring live record dedicated to their former bassist and cherished friend, Brandon Dabbs. What began as a routine live recording at Workplay in Birmingham transformed into an intimate act of love and remembrance when a snowstorm canceled the show, leaving the band in an empty room with only their music and memories. Stripped of an audience, Meadows pressed record anyway, pouring their grief, gratitude, and celebration into every note. The result is a hauntingly beautiful collection of older tracks and newer Facedown Records releases—all performed live, all echoing with the absence and enduring presence of a beloved bandmate.

This album is more than music; it’s a sacred space where sorrow and joy collide. Meadows describes the recording session as a moment of healing, their first time playing many of these songs without Dabbs—yet feeling his spirit in every chord. With the unwavering support of Facedown Records, For a Good & Faithful Servant is now available on all major streaming platforms, a tribute meant to uplift others as it has the band. “We played not for a crowd, but for his memory,” they share—a testament to friendship, faith, and the power of music to keep love alive.
