Disciple - As a rising force in the genre of contemporary hard rock, Disciple has achieved great strides by fusing an explicit Christian message with aggressive, well-orchestrated music. Driven by a mission to make an impact in the world, Disciple has already demanded the attention of thousands who are embracing the band’s cutting-edge declaration. Although the path has been challenging, Disciple has persevered with a prolific output of professional music and live performances. If the past is any indication, the future for this Tennessee trio is bright.

Project 86 - One thing about Project 86 is certain--The band has staying power. In fact one could argue that Project 86 has become the blueprint for bands seeking longevity in an industry that is anything but stable. Through perseverance and determination Project has been able to do what few bands ever can: Create their own signature sound while reinventing themselves along the way. After 13 years together, and over 350,000 career albums sold, the group just released their 7th full length album titled Picket Fence Cartel on July 14.

Children 18:3 - On the right side of the stage you see David, the eldest, lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist. Long black locks swirl around piercing eyes that bleed black mascara Sleeveless, torn, jeanjacketed, a vision of a classic era, spirit of ‘77. On the left side of the stage sister Lee Marie swings her bass high above her platinum blonde maelstrom, supported by white high-heels, she screams with lipstick-laden vocal yelps and finger-points to the sky. And behind, brother Seth twirls his sticks and
bashes in rhythm to complete the whirlwind that is...Children 18:3.

Eric Samuel Timm - He’s part artist, part speaker, and all passion – this is what gives Reverend Eric Samuel Timm relevance in today’s changing landscape. Speaking, painting and performing to hundreds of thousands each year, Eric captivates his audiences with a unique communication style and unforgettable one-of-a-kind live art performances. He is sought after for his ability to present God's truth in ways that are attractive to both the church and people who aren’t in a current relationship with
Christ. Eric stirs up what lays dormant and leaves his audience inspired. When Eric speaks, people listen; when Eric paints, people see worship different.
