Mid Week Music: I Am They

I Am They

I Am They is a band formed in 2008 in Nevada, under the name Solomon’s Porch. They began performing together in 2008 at small church events for their community. In 2009, they were asked to open for a Matthew West concert, where they changed their name to I Am They. At the end  2013 they were signed to Provident Label Group and began recording their first album in 2014.

I absolutely love their sound! My all time favorite genre of music is bluegrass, and they are definitely the closest I has ever found to being Christian bluegrass.

I Am They has one album out, titled I Am They. It was released in 2015.

My favorite songs of theirs are “From the Day”, “King of Love”, and “Over and over again”.

Other bands like I Am They are Rend Collective, Crowder, All Sons and Daughters, and Consumed by Fire.

Mid Week Music: OBB

Oswald Brothers Band

The Oswald Brothers Band, better known as OBB, is a contemporary christian band made up of 3 brothers. They are from Atlanta, Georgia, where they began publishing music in 2008.

They have many independently published albums and EPs, but they do have a few albums published by Centricity music. These albums are: OBB, Bright Side, and Feelin’ Like Christmas. They have released a few new singles lately, but it is unclear as to when and if they will be releasing an entire album.

My favorite songs of theirs are “Looking For a Girl”, “Who Cares If We’re Dancing”, “Wake Me Up”, and “Song of a Savior”.

Other bands like OBB are About a Mile, Royal Tailor, Capital Kings, and Audio Adrenaline.

Mid Week Music: Tim Timmons

Tim Timmons

Tim Timmons is one of my all time favorite contemporary Christian artists. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2001 and was told he only had 5 years to live. He had a hard year of surgeries, but he and his wife decided to live as if he wasn’t going to die. They didn't worry about what things would be like after he was gone, they trusted God. He has used his music to establish and grow in a relationship with God. He said he had always known about Jesus but never knew Jesus, so he took the step to be in a constant relationship with him. He has a hopeful and outgoing personality that is so refreshing in this dark world.  

He has two albums out, Cast My Cares (2013) and Awake Our Souls (2015). Cast My Cares was his album for reconnecting with God, and Awake Our Souls is a celebration of life with God. You can tell these ideas were the topics for these albums in the way the songs were composed and the words that were used. Cast My Cares has a lot of songs about relying on God, while Awake Our Souls is about living for God and what we do in response to his great love.

My favorite songs of his are “Everywhere I Go”, “Starts With Me”,and “Like I’ve Been Changed”. All of his songs are so wonderful and I simply love everything he has ever released. His music speaks to me on so many levels and really inspires to pursue a deeper relationship with God.

Other artists like him are 7th Time Down, One Sonic Society, All Sons and Daughters, Jason Gray, Brandon Heath, Big Daddy Weave, and Citizen Way.  

Mid Week Music: Jason Gray

Jason Gray

Jason Gray is a contemporary Christian singer and songwriter. He is one of my absolute favorite artists. He has released music consistently since 2007, when his first album signed by Centricity Music, All The Lovely Losers, came out. He has a speech impediment and grew up in a very broken home. But, he doesn’t stutter when he sings because as he says God can make music out of our brokenness.

My favorite songs of his are “Resurrection”, “Laugh Out Loud”, “Celebrate”, and “Not Right Now”. His songs are upbeat, but they make you think and raise important subjects for discussion. He has an amazing and unique sound, and the more I listen to his music, the more I love him. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite artists.

His last album, Where the Light Gets In, came out June 17, 2016. He has five other albums, not including Christmas, acoustic, and self-published albums. The other albums he has released are: Where the Light Gets In, Love Will Have the Final Word, A Way to See in the Dark, Everything Sad Is Coming Untrue, and All the Lovely Losers.

Other artists like Jason Gray are Matthew West, Josh Wilson, Big Daddy Weave, Matt Maher, and Brandon Heath.

Mid Week Music: All Sons and Daughters

Mid Week Music: All Sons and Daughters

All Sons and Daughters is a worship band from Franklin, Tennessee. Leslie Jordan (vocals and guitar)  and David Leonard (vocals and piano) are worship leaders at a non denominational church in Franklin. Their music has a very folk sound, as they use lots of acoustic instruments.

My favorite songs of theirs include "Brokenness Aside", "Called Me Higher", "Oh How I Need You", "Rising Sun", and "Hear the Sound". I really love all of their songs, and it was hard to narrow it down. What I love about their songs is that they all remind me how much God loves me and how amazing he truly is.
All Sons and Daughters had their latest album, Poets and Saints, come out September 2, 2016. They have four albums out: Poets and Saints, Live, All Sons and Daughters, and Season One.

I Am They, Rend Collective, Bryan and Katie Torwalt, and Phil Wickham all have similar sounds to All Sons and Daughters.

Mid-Week Music: About a Mile

Mid-Week Music: About a Mile

About a Mile is a christian band that consists of three brothers from Pennsylvania. They started releasing music in 2009, and their latest album came out last Friday, October 28, 2016. Their music has an amazing message, like being true to who you are, our desperate need for Jesus, and the amazing power of the name of Christ.  They have a sound that you can’t find anywhere else. It is so unique, and they are up there with the best contemporary christian music.

My favorite songs of theirs are Oxygen, I Hate Hate, and Traded. All of their songs are amazing, but I would absolutely recommend you listen to these songs as a place to start.  

For more bands like them I would recommend Switchfoot,  Audio Adrenaline, Tobymac, OBB (Oswald Brothers Band), and Hawk Nelson.
