    If you get the chance to see these Bangor based Christian musicians, then may I heartily reccomend them?

    They were mainstage worship leaders at the Summer Madness festival this weekend and they were magnificent.

    musically and spiritually superb.

    very Mumford and sons in places.......

    they keep swapping instruments.....
    one played acoustic guitar, electric guitar, mando and bass....
    the bassist also played guitar and keys
    the drummer also played accordian & keys

    this is a studio recording....

    this was last year in the Kings hall, Belfast.

    really scary thing is that they are a real collective.

    there are the core 5 that are in the vid above.

    but there are anything upto 20 others who can show up and play when ever it suits.

    My mate Wally was playing trombone with them at the Summer Madness festival at the weekend. His wife Susan plays keys and violin occasionally.

    theres a crazy dude who plays percussion with them..... like chains and steel bins and stuff......

    Love it. I have to say, I really don't like the stuff that contemporary worship music that comes from the states. This stuff is brill!

    Very good, talented with an original sound! This is from someone who would consider contemporary Christian music to be largely awful.

    Aw but it's got an Irish twist! It's a really nice song..

    Ditto! Some music is truely unimaginative and dreadful, but the tamborine, guitar and drums gives it some kind of heart :) the lyrics go without saying - age old.
