Artist History
In 1997, the Holy Spirit compelled Robert to begin a youth ministry, with young people ministering to other young people through music and drama. Since Robert had written over 200 gospel songs by this time, he immediately set out to find committed, consistent and talented young people who wanted to sing for the Lord. Originally he promised the young people that while they learned the songs, he would find a studio to record them. When finding affordable studio time proved elusive, Robert decided to build his own. Being a computer person and pianist, the most natural move was to hook up a keyboard to a PC. Adding an inexpensive mixing software package and a audio mixer made the setup complete. Within a year the first album "The Evidence" ("Faith" is '...the evidence of things not seen')was complete. It isn't the greatest quality, but there are nice tracks on it, and it proved the reality of making an album was possible. The second album "The Substance" ('Faith is the substance of things hoped for...') was completed in November 1999, and quality-wise it was much better than the first CD, and also has plenty of nice tracks on it. The third CD, "The Victory" ('...and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith'), will be completed by the end of November 2000, at which time a couple tracks will be added to this site. The band has had over 10 different lead vocalists on over 35 songs over the course of three albums, and Robert is always looking for new local young people to sing for upcoming musical projects, both live and in the studio. Please pray for the group as they endeavor to help finish the work of spreading the gospel in all the world. |
