1000's of people come from all over every year to hear Christian music and it's right here in my own backyard of Indiana. This is where I have seen artist like Micheal W Smith, Curtis Chapman , MercyMe , Third Day, and Jars of Clay
This year I came to see the last two acts. MercyMe was back and the other group was called Needtobreathe. Before I go into talking about Needtobreathe I just want to say..
Who said God doesn't know how to ROCK!!
I grew up in a Lutheran Church , only knowing the hymns and canters is how we sang for god. I love to this day these songs but little did I know there was music out there that would open my eye,ears and mind to a new way of connecting to him.
I have always been open minded to all religion and music, so when my friend took me for the first time to the Pulse Festival , I was totally blown away by all the people and the music i got to hear that day. I was hooked to what they call positive music.

People started chanting for Needtobreathe to take the stage and now I know why!!! I even LOVE the name of this group!! The name makes me take a deep breath and pulls me in to every song they did. This group is certainly taking Christian Rock music by storm and I can't wait to buy their albums.
I did get video of them singing Reckoning but it sounds really distorted so it doesn't sound that great. I guess they did a mix to the song near the end and them playing on the drums had me screaming for more!!!
Needtobreath is one of my absolute favorite bands. I relate on such a deep level to their words. They aren't sappy and yet the reach me. I have every.single.song :) Glad you like them too!
ReplyDeleteDo you like SafetySuit? "The band, which formed in the early 2000s at the Pentecostal Christian college Oral Roberts University, undoubtedly has a Christian background, and that ethic finds its way onto Life Left to Go".
Yes Annie their lyrics seem to reach so many of us and I think this group will be able to get their music heard on different radio stations, which only a few Christian artist have been able to accomplish. I hardly buy a whole album these days and I am loving every song of theirs, so this is one album I will buy.
ReplyDeleteNo, I have never heard of SafetySuit, so thanks!! They sound great from the video's I just watched.
