When God moves through Music.

FIRST THREE. Try! They are awesome.. I mean God is awesome!
FLYLEAF.
Flyleaf is an American alternative metal band, formed in the Belton[1] and Temple, Texas[2] regions in 2000. The band has charted on mainstream rock, Christian pop and Christian metal genres.
All five members of the band are Christians. Their faith influences their music, but lead singer Sturm doesn't believe that necessarily makes Flyleaf strictly a Christian band. The band says they are Christians who play in a rock band, and their faith is heard within their music.[29] "We all share the same faith." In 2005 Flyleaf performed a free concert at Los Angeles Pierce College for a Christian group at the college, which was a three day event.
In a May 2010 interview, lead singer Sturm was asked how it felt to be in a Christian rock band and play in Las Vegas:
Well, you know what? I don’t know what you mean by a “Christian rock band.” It’s hard to say that because people all have a different definition of what that means. If it means that we’re Christians, then yeah, we’re Christians, but if a plumber’s a Christian, does that make him a “Christian plumber?” I mean we’re not playing for Christians. We’re just playing honestly and that’s going to come out.[30]

Here you are down on your knees again
trying to find air to breathe again
And only surrender will help you now
I love you please see and believe again
SWITCHFOOT
Switchfoot is an American rock band from San Diego, California. The band's members are Jon Foreman (lead vocals, guitar), Tim Foreman(bass guitar, backing vocals), Chad Butler (drums, percussion), Jerome Fontamillas (guitar, keyboards, backing vocals), and Drew Shirley(guitar, backing vocals). After early successes in the Christian rock scene, Switchfoot first gained mainstream recognition with the inclusion of four of their songs in the 2002 movie A Walk to Remember. This recognition led to their major label debut, The Beautiful Letdown, which was released in 2003. It went on to sell over 2.6 million copies. They have since been noted for their energetic live shows,[7][8][9] and their seventhstudio album Hello Hurricane received a Grammy award in 2011 for Best Rock Gospel Album.
"For us, it's a faith, not a genre," says Jon Foreman. "We've always been very open and honest about where the songs are coming from. For us, these songs are for everyone. Calling us 'Christian rock' tends to be a box that closes some people out and excludes them, and that's not what we're trying to do. Music has always opened my mind—and that's what we want".[57]
JARS OF CLAY
This verse is paraphrased in their song "Four Seven", which appears as a hidden track on the CD release of their self-titled album.

I find peace when I'm confused
And I find hope when I'm let down
Not in me, me
In you
Its in you
And I find hope when I'm let down
Not in me, me
In you
Its in you
JARS OF CLAY
Jars of Clay is a Christian rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. They met at Greenville College in Greenville, Illinois.[1]
Jars of Clay consists of Dan Haseltine on vocals, Charlie Lowell on piano and keyboards, Stephen Mason on lead guitars and Matthew Odmark on rhythm guitars. Although the band has no permanent drummer or bassist, Jeremy Lutito and Gabe Ruschival of Disappointed By Candy fill these roles for live concerts.

Jars of Clay's style is a blend of alternative rock, folk, acoustic, and R&B.
The band's name is derived from the New International Version's translation of 2 Corinthians 4:7:
| “ | But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. | ” |
