Mockingbird (2005) is the third release from Derek Webb since his departure from Caedmon's Call for a solo career.

Produced by Cason Cooley, the album touches on subjects such as politics, social justice, and war. Webb has stated that he tackled these subjects to stimulate discussion and engage people to bring about changes in what he sees as some of the greatest problems the world is facing today.^[1] The Work of the People (a community of artists, storytellers, filmmakers, poets and theologians) created a music video for Webb's song A New Law which is available for viewing on their website.^[2]

In the fall of 2006, the entire album was made available to download for free at FreeDerekWebb.com.
