Generation Letter began when Sovereign Grace Ministries Producer, Integrity Music Songwriter and Under Ground Grace Records President, Steve Cook suggested blending the talents and visions of Frontman George Romanacce with band members John Ripley, Alex Couch and Stephen Morgan. Over many prayerful conversations, it became clear that the Lord's timing and leading was in place. As individuals, each member of Generation Letter had the desire and vision to be a part of a band that would glorify the Savior, and UGG Records exists to promote sound biblical songwriting with relevant Alternative Music styles; this was a natural fit. Not only was the vision to create and record great music to glorify God, but to offer freely the joy of worshipping God with a biblically informed theology of worship. As you read the words of Generation Letter songs you will find compelling lyrics that further the preaching of the Good News of Jesus Christ. When you couple those thought provoking lyrics with fresh and exciting music you have a powerful musical platform! The recent addition of Kyle Van Cleave on Bass Guitar rounds out the band’s musical background and style and Kyle’s passion for music and for God continues to challenge each band member to pursue excellence.
The result of this God ordained group of worshippers is a musical blend of melodic, indie, alternative rock alongside passionate vocals and harmonious guitar riffs that brings a fresh angle to Christian music. The self titled EP was recorded in Atlanta in November of '07 with Matt Goldman and Jeremy Griffith at Glow in the Dark Studios. Since the EP release in February of 2008 the band has been blown away by the reception of their music. Selected as a winner in the Creation Festival 2008 National Talent Search, the band performed live in PA with Worth Dying For, Run Kid Run, Red, and many others at Creation’08. Soon afterward the band rocked alongside fellow UGG Records artists Reilly and West Coast Revival at Cornerstone ’08. Sharing the stage in August of 08' with Stellar Kart, Vicky Beeching, and MercyMe at the GMA Music in the Rockies, Generation Letter performed as the Gospel Music Association/HearItFirst.com 2008 Battle of the Bands Grand Prize Winners. The band also were winners in the LifeLight Festival Sonicbids Talent search and were invited to play in South Dakota at the biggest Christian Music Festival in the U.S.
Some of the most recent accolades include Grand Prize Winners in the 2008 John Lennon Songwriting Competition as well as multiple awards from the 16th Annual Billboard Song Contest.
While the momentum is exciting, the guys are quick to point out that the primary vision of Generation Letter is to support the advancement of the Gospel and the building of Christ’s Church here on earth. As members of the Worship Team at Metro Life Church in Casselberry, FL the guys have the opportunity to live out the truths they sing about on a weekly basis.
