FRANKLIN, TN. (Word Distribution) - In its search for artists who create timely and significant music, Indelible Creative Group introduces spur58, the label's newest signing, a melodic rock band that explores worship through personal stories. The band is currently in the studio and will release its national debut October 10 through Word Distribution.
'spur58 has the unique ability to share truth in a remarkable way,' says president and co-founder of Indelible Creative Group, Chris Thomason. 'Yes, musically they are great, but these guys are about more than just music. Their heartfelt, straightforward lyrics and dedication to face-to-face communication with an audience gives the band's ministry true validity.'
Taking its name from a road in native state Texas, the five-piece band aims to create community among music fans, believers as well as non-believers, by sharing honest thoughts on worship through a powerful, melodic blend of guitars and piano. Believing that every person worships something, spur58 writes music that speaks to its desire to see people worship God intimately, both personally and corporately, using transparent, real life stories which offer a wider view of God.
'Our heart is leading worship. That's what we love to do and are passionate about,' says frontman Aaron Ivey. 'But that doesn't always mean getting people to sing along. We believe that to lead someone to respond to God, you must show them all aspects of God and life. It's so easy to instigate the worship �thing' and get everyone hyped up about how great God is, but sometimes we miss the truth that God is great and good even in pain and suffering.'
Frontman Ivey, guitarists Jimmie Ingram and Chad Martin, Steven Bush on bass and drummer Guy Roberts base themselves in Murfreesboro, Tenn., just southeast of Nashville, not for its close proximity to the music scene but for the young adults they lead in worship at their home church. When not at home, the band can be found criss-crossing the United States in a van, playing more than 200 dates a year.
Indelible Creative Group seeks to help build God's kingdom by creating remarkable experiences through media products that are culturally and spiritually relevant. Among its releases are a self-titled music debut from The Longing, and Velocity, a music experience that connects independent artists with their cause-driven mission to impact the world. Indelible Creative Group is distributed by Word Distribution at CBA retail and WEA Distribution in the general market. For more information, visit www.indelibleonline.com.
