WORTH DYING FOR
Each year several of us from LifeLight go to Nashville for GMA Week. Every year we go, there is always one or two bands that create a pretty big buzz for all the industry people. This year, one of those bands was Worth Dying For. We are thrilled to have them on the roster this year and we know you will be as well. They are playing on both the Souled Out Stage and Coffeehouse Stage so you have several chances to catch them. And if you are camping at "Souled Out Village" (youth group camping), you'll get a private campfire time with them. Worth Dying For (and special guests Family Force 5) will be sitting around the campfire with you doing some sing-alongs at this years Souled Out Village Camping also (registration now closed for Souled Out Village Camping).
This group is for real and definitely one you wont want to miss this year. Mark down your schedule and make sure you dont miss them at this years festival!

BIOGRAPHY:
To discover the real story behind Worth Dying For, the five-member worship band from Modesto, California, you’ve got to dig below the surface and make room for a deeper calling, a more passionate pursuit than music itself.
Birthed in the city-wide outreach of Calvary Temple’s weekly youth event, “The Stadium,” Worth Dying For aims to shake this generation out of its lethargy and despair. The band is more creed than career, more mission than music. And the music—aggressive guitars, searing vocals and heart-provoking lyrics—speaks for itself.
Slated for an April 2008 release, Worth Dying For’s self-titled debut marks the national launch of a movement destined to impact youth culture in a whole new way. Featuring 15 pop/rock anthems and impassioned ballads, the debut CD draws heavily on themes that define the band’s mission: infiltrate, destroy [the darkness] and rebuild today’s youth culture.
“Jesus Christ and music are the two things that consume the thoughts and lives of this band,” says 21-year-old Sean Loche, one of two lead vocalists in Worth Dying For. “Combine the two, and you get what we love to do: worship. We are ordinary people who have a desire to show others how to fall in love with God in a deeper, more passionate way. The music that God has used us to write has changed our youth ministry and our city. Now, God has put it on our hearts to let these songs resonate in the hearts of the young people across this nation.”
