Jason Gray is COMING!!!!

Hello everyone! So, you've heard about Jeremy Camp, Chasen, The Afters, and now it's time for you to get to know a little about Jason Gray.

"One of the first things you should know about me is that I suffer from a speech handicap known as stuttering. But instead of it being a liability, I've found it to be a great asset in the work I do." -Jason Gray (from his myspace page)

Jason Gray is grew up in Minnesota and was involved in youth ministry before he became a music artist. Jason is not only a Christian music singer, her is also an avid volunteer and promoter of World Vision's Hope Initiative, which helps children who were orphaned because of their parents dying of AIDS in Africa. He has had a few albums released, including "The Singer & The Song", "A Place Called Hope", "The Better Part Of Me", "All The Lovely Losers", and the most recent, "Everything Sad Is Coming Untrue".

We hope to see you at the concert to hear not only the well-known artists, but also less-known, but equally awesome Jason Gray!

Remember that the concert is at 7pm and doors open at 6pm at Faith Assembly on Jan 20! Also, we need your help unloading and loading stuff before & after the concert. If you are interested, please let us know! You'll get into the concert for free for helping us!

This is a video of Jason Gray performing his song "More Like Falling In Love" at a visit to KLRC Studios

The Afters is COMING!!!

Wow, Intern Stone here, I don't know if you've been outside yesterday or today, but the weather is awesome! Not really hot, not cold, but plenty of sun. On top of all that, we're having our first concert of the year this week and I am totally stoked about that.

So we've heard some about Jeremy Camp, and some about Chasen, so here's some info that you might not know about The Afters.

The Afters started up in Mesquite, Texas where lead vocalist Josh Havens and vocalist/guitarist Matt Fuqua worked together at a Starbucks and planned on putting a band together. They recruited Marc Dodd and Brad Wigg and began touring under the name "Blisse". They changed their name to "The Afters" once they realized there was an other band also going by "Blisse".

They signed to INO Records around 2002 and released their debut album "I Wish we all Could Win". The first single from the album, "Beautiful Love" won a "Streaming Woodie" award from MTVu and was used for the theme song to "8th and Ocean" and was also featured in the movie "Just My Luck".

In 2006, they released their latest album, "Never Going Back to OK". The first single from this album, also called "Never Going Back to OK" was first released on Total Axxess with Wally back in 2007 and R&R magazine ranked it as the most played song on U.S. Christian CHR radio in 2008.

They've also released a number of other singles that are also quite good. Among them are "Myspace Girl" and the single for this video, "Ocean Wide".

Chasen is COMING!!!

Ok, so we just gave you a little info about Mr. Camp, and now it's time for a little get-to-know-Chasen time! Chasen is a band from Greenville, SC (yeah, they're natives of the great SC!). The band consists of frontman Chasen Callahan on guitar & vocals, Evan Silver on guitar & background vocals, Aaron Lord on drums, and Jared Barber on bass and background vocals. Callahan got started in music as a worship pastor at his church and also playing at camps and conferences. After going through temporary band members, Callahan joined forces with Silver and Lord. In 2009, Barber joined the bunch!
Chasen has had a few hit singles on the radio, "Drown", "Crazy Beautiful", and the newest, "On and On". Callahan writes songs from his own experiences as well as experiences from friends, family, and collaborations with others.
The concert is at Faith Assembly in Summerville on Jan. 20 at 7pm (doors open at 6!). We need your help, though. We need volunteers to help set up and take down equipment and such before and after the concert. If you would like to help us out (which we would appreciate ever so much!) just email us, facebook us, and/or call us! Oh, and did we mention that if you help us out, you get free admission into the concert? :-) So, please, help! Thanks, guys!
Here's a little video of Chasen. Enjoy!

Jeremy Camp is COMING!!!

Hey guys! The Jeremy Camp - The Afters - Chasen - Jason Gray concert is quickly approaching. We want to remind you that we need some volunteers to help out with the unloading and reloading of equipment before and after the concert. If you volunteer, you get into the concert for free! If you're interested, just let us know, by emailing us! We hope to see you there! So, since this concert is coming up, we're gonna let you know a little bit about the artists every so often (in case you didn't know about them....), starting with Jeremy Camp!
Jeremy has had sixteen #1 singles, five Dove Awards, three ASCAP Writer of the Year awards, and an AMA nomination. Some of his songs include "I Still Believe", "Walk By Faith", "Take You Back", "Lay Down My Pride", "This Man", "There Will Be A Day", "Speaking Louder Than Before", and a ton more!
Jeremy has touched the lives of many, many people through his music and his own personal experiences. He's been through a lot, but God has taken the bad and turned it into good. Jeremy is passionate about many things, such as loving others, sharing our Christian faith, and realizing how important the Bible is in our daily lives.
He also has a campaign going on called Speak Up, Speak Now, Speak Loud. "It's an agenda without an agenda. The Speak Up comes from Paul saying, 'I didn't come to you with persuasive words, the Holy Spirit did the work.' It's not about what you can do on your own power. God just wants us to spend time with Him and have a willing heart. Speak Now comes from the urgency of the scary times we live in. Lastly, Speak Loud challenges us to hear loud this declaration from out across the nations where people are crying out. It's not about volume, it's about the substance behind what we're saying." (from jeremycamp.com)
So, there you have it, a little glimpse into who Jeremy Camp is and where he's coming from! We hope you get to make it to the concert on January 22, at Faith Assembly in Summerville. Here's a video for you of one of Jeremy Camp's songs! Enjoy!
