!-WITHIN THE RED BIOGRAPHY-!
Sometimes the storms of life come and strip away all you thought you ever wanted, to reveal, as the sun climbs from behind the dark clouds, that the only things left are the only things you truly need. Based out of South Carolina, Shawn Bilton's journey is one centered often times in struggles, pain, restoration and new beginnings...faith to leave his own plans behind to follow the dreams of a God who's proven faithful over and over again...the result...a progressive, acoustic rock blend with a unique edge, emerging from a heart refined by the fire of an awesome God who loves and carries us through anything.

Being blessed with the opportunities to open for amazing groups such as Building 429, DecembeRadio, NEEDTOBREATHE, Sanctus Real, Echoing Angels, Chasen, The Afters, Since October and Candace Cameron Bure ("DJ" from the tv show, Full House), as well as being chosen to be a World Vision Artist Associate, God is opening doors and Shawn's passionate and excited about the future. His life and ministry are a tapestry of Grace that shines through each song, and Shawn's passion lies in sharing the message of life through this music with a world that desperately longs for something more...His Name is Jesus.

If you want to walk on the water, you've gotta get out of the boat!

"Shawn Bilton brings a fresh, vibrant atmosphere when he leads worship. I truly feel he is well worth churches taking a listen to and booking for their next event!"

"Shawn has a true heart for God which is obvious as he leads in worship. His passion and excitement for God shines through every song."
- Patti De Felicis

"Going to live shows, you get to see how bands move and work a crowd, and maybe a small glimpse into their heart. Being blessed to work in a recording studio everyday, I get to dig a little deeper by almost living with them for days, weeks, or months! In a very short time, I quickly saw that Shawn has a true passion to serve our Lord through music, and he was a blast and blessing to work with!
-Swaff
Producer (swaff.net)

""Take This Offering” is a 5-song EP that’s all about modern rock with a heart to worship God. Shawn would fit in well sharing the stage with bands such as Kutless or Jonah 33.......Lyrically, this release is outstanding. Deep and resonant. A heart’s cry for spiritual strength. And a plea for turning to Jesus for salvation as well as answers to life’s problems. Shawn Bilton is certainly not beating around the bush.......Overall: Shawn does pretty much everything right. If you’re into modern rock with a vision to praise God and touch hearts through music, Shawn Bilton is just what you’re looking for."

"It has been without a doubt my pleasure to know and support the music ministry of Shawn Bilton. Not only is he a talented singer and songwriter, he also has an amazing testimony that has and will continue touch the heart of everyone everywhere."
- Athena Stafford

"I recently received a copy of Shawn Bilton's work and must say I was extremely impressed with his voice. His music has a deep sense of emotion and a unique sound that seems to creep into one’s soul. Shawn has been slowly gaining popularity in Belize. 'Nothing More Than Everything' entered into Belize Christian Network’s Top Ten Countdown two weeks after debuting. The track is steadily working its way to the top and receiving rave reviews from Belizean listeners both Secular and Christian! 'Glorious' another powerful track, exhibits Shawn’s intoxicating voice and has now been wooing Belizean audiences off their feet. This song has the potential to go all the way to the top of the charts. It’s only a matter of time before we see this track battling for a spot in the countdown. Belizeans are ecstatic to be given an opportunity to worship with the man behind the voice of these melodious songs. Coming in October Shawn will be here worshiping and embracing the success he has acquired in this small Caribbean Country. Within the Red is amazing! Their commitment to music and passion to worship will eventually peak him to super-stardom! We should look out for Shawn Bilton in the future!"
- Melanie Bowden
Belize Christian Network

"Shawn Bilton's music is at the top when it comes to sounds. His music is about worship not the charts although he could easily make it there. Shawn is a hard worker when it comes to promotion and has always (from what i have found in my research) tried to pursue his career for the main purpose of serving God. Lucky for him he has ended up with a cracking sound that may be able to provide a nice life for him, his new wife, and the rest of the band along the way."
-Michelle Jo
Editor in Chief Quaint Magazine



"I have been working with Shawn Bilton for the past three months and have found his heart to be true to our Lord Jesus Christ. He has proven to me to have the highest level of integrity and character.
It is my pleasure to recommend Shawn Bilton to any venue who desires to have a professional Christian band who can not only entertain, but bless everyone he is in contact with."
