Growing up in a small town in central Illinois didn’t leave us with very much to do. We chose to pass the time by attempting to play music. Eventually, slowly, and somewhat unexpectedly, music worked it’s way into our soul; weaving its way into the very fabric of our being, so that we could no longer imagine life without music.
As we grew older and listened to the world’s subconscious message that life was all about money and power, our passion grew into dreams of becoming rich and famous. So we began pursuing that dream by writing songs, recording several demos as well as a full album, and playing all the shows that we could.
Eventually, discouragement took over our lives as we trudged through the sludge that is the music industry. Our Attitudes became extremely negative toward each other. Rehearsals, recording sessions, and shows were filled with arguments, and frustration.
We were on the verge of quitting. Something needed to change. Suddenly, and even more unexpectedly, God worked His way into our soul: weaving His way into the very fabric of our being. We regained our love for music by getting our deluded, selfish desires out of the way and putting God at the center. We began a lifelong Journey to “Realign” our lives to reflect the kind of Life that Jesus modeled for us. Not to say that we have it all figured out…we screw up a lot, but we’ve learned that following Jesus is not about never screwing up, but how we react when we do screw up.
The result is a band that writes dynamic hard-hitting songs about not conforming to societies standards of what is a successful life, hope in the midst of despair, and salvation even when we think we are beyond it. Since our transformation, we have recorded two full albums, and toured all over the world. We’ve shared bills with many great bands such as Skillet, Kutless, Red, Day of Fire, Thousand Foot Krutch, Barlow Girl, The Newsboys, and Audio Adrenaline. We look forward to continuing to make great music and connect with people for as long as God allows it.
