MIXPOSURE RADIO PREMIERE: ROBERT PETERSON AND THE CRUSADE’S
“COMING OUT OF BABYLON”

CT
Denver, CO (September 15, 2025) Mixposure Radio has coordinated with Robert
Peterson and The Crusade to premiere their soon-to-be released single, Coming Out Of
Babylon. Broadcasting remotely from West Virginia, the track will be dropped live on
Mixposure.com’s Weird and Wacky Wednesdays Show with JimsAE between 7-8 pm
CT September 24, 2025. The single will be released by DistroKid onto all major
streaming platforms at midnight on September 26, 2025, and is slated to appear on the
group’s forthcoming album, Change Coming On.
“We are proud to feature Robert Peterson and The Crusade as Mixposure.com’s Arist of
the Month for September. Their music is quite good and deserves to be heard. The
entire Mixposure staff thoroughly enjoys their unique brand of music, and we are
eagerly anticipating the upcoming premiere of Coming Out Of Babylon,” commented
Mixposure’s disc jockey Jim Rustemeyer.
Coming Out of Babylon features the layered sounds and tones for which Peterson is
becoming known - powerful arrangements with an emphasis on melody. As the writer
and producer, his signature sounds include a perfect blend of lead and harmony vocals,
catchy guitar hooks, and memorable and meaningful lyrics that are meant to be heard
by the masses. In addition, he strives for originality and authenticity, yet the listener may
find familiarity on this track within an arena-rock ‘wall of sound.’
Formerly a federal biologist, Peterson now balances his passion for music as a guitarist,
writer, and producer. For Babylon, he takes center stage on guitar and vocals but
rounds out this track with the professional talents of Jack Vondrachek on bass, Adam
Hepner on organ and drums, Benji Peterson on harmony lead guitar, and Annie Jo
Brown on outro vocals. “Babylon was the song that began my whole vision for Robert
Peterson and The Crusade back in St. Paul. After we laid down the initial tracks in the
studio, I temporarily put it on a shelf knowing that I would eventually get back to it and
finish it in style. I had an epiphany to add the Hammond B3. This addition provided the
solid rhythmic layer the song had needed to compliment and lift its positive message,”
said Peterson.
No doubt Babylon will continue The Crusade’s appeal to diverse audiences and take its
rightful place in the band’s catalog of musically interesting compositions. It is further
quite likely it will land firmly on a blended mix of hard rock, punk, and pop rock
independent charts and playlists, all on its own merits.
