Artist History 5SS (Five Smooth Stones) is a quintet formed in 1995 by Jon Fawcett and Scott Cole. Since then, Chris Fawcett, Scott Semmelroth, and Trista Carrhave joined the band to complete a team of musicians with very diverse musical backgrounds. The name originated in I Samuel 17:40 when David pickedup five smooth stones out of the stream to fight (and slay) Goliath. This illustrates the band's attitude: through humility, trust, and guidancefrom the Lord, one can accomplish anything.
