BIOGRAPHY

We love GOD, and only want to please Him. We believe in having a REAL relationship with Jesus Christ, because without that, you’re not living life to the fullest. So, that’s us in a nutshell, I guess. That’s the heart of this band. Love it or hate it, ya know, that’s us.

So what about the music? We’re all about making music that you can hear once and remember forever. At least that’s what we shoot for. Haha. We’ve been a band for nearly 4 years. We believe that music is a tool that can be used to change the World in a negative way or a positive way, we choose positive. Our songs deal with real life, and real topics, some people have a hard time with it, but that’s too bad. GOD has called us to do this, not them. Most folks that listen to us for the first time have no clue that we are a Christ-Based ROCK band. Honestly, we feel that’s what GOD wants from us right now. We’re used differently, if you have a hard time with it, go to God about it.

You were created to do something spectacular. You were created with purpose. Before the foundations of the earth were created, GOD had YOU in mind. That’s not religious jargon, it’s the truth. GOD isn’t mad at you; He loves you, which is why He sent Jesus to the earth to die for our sins so that we can come to GOD without a sin or inferiority complex. Through Jesus’ supreme sacrifice, we can come to GOD spotless, without blame, being JUSTIFIDE (just as if I’d never sinned).

This is a “biography.” So let’s some this up… We’re 4 guys that make music with the Creator, music that you can relate to, music that you can feel, and music that you can enjoy. We’ve been blessed to work with some amazingly gifted people, people that we admire and respect very deeply. GOD is putting some cool things together, and soon and very soon we will all look back and say, “Look what GOD has done.”

Not a typical bio, but maybe that’s the point we’re trying to get across…. We’re not your typical rock band.

WORDS FROM THE BAND THEMSELVES:

“It’s not about fame. It’s not about money. It’s not about chicks! It’s about spreading a love that is undeniable, and a peace that passes all understanding.” -Jordan Ward (drums & vocals)

“Music is only a part of why we do what we do. The rest resides in the content.” -Caleb Ward (Guitar & Lead Vocals)

“Ministry is our lives. I quit my dream job to do this full-time. I’ve gone behind on my bills at times, I’ve lost a lot, but in the process…I’ve gained more than I could ever need, or even want...And GOD still provides!” -Josh Ward (Guitar & Vocals)

“The whole reason I joined this band to begin with was because I believed in the ministry that was already coming out of it. There is no greater feeling in the World, than to know that because you were willing and obedient, a life was changed.” -Ervin Smith (Bassist)

Full Name - Joshua Dale Ward

Date of Birth - April 12th,  1985

AGE - 24 years of age

          Josh is the oldest of three brothers. You have probably already noticed that his playing style is something so special and unique, that you can't really compare him to just ONE MAN. If you tried, you'd object yourself right after you realized that he is an honest blend of every era of time in musical history. You will hear his metal influence, you'll hear the classical, the country, the 80's hair metal, the 50's, 60's, definitely the 70's, and anything in between. That's just Josh Ward. He is an invaluable asset to this band and it's sound. Little known fact about Josh, he repeats lines to himself under his voice, in character, while watching movies. It's a habit, he's a natural born actor.

Full Name - Immanuel Ervin Smith

Date of Birth - December 18th, 1992

AGE - 17 years of age

          Ervin is the youngest of seven brothers and sisters. Those who have seen him LIVE know that he is one of the most enjoyable parts of the show. He has the uncanny ability to connect with an audience from a positional role that rarely has the ability to do so from the stage. He co-commands the rhythm section of this band with a force and thump that can't be reckoned with. Little known fact about Ervin, he can't do dairy products, he's lactose intolerant. The problem with his lactose intolerance is that it is "gas related". Get the picture?
