Today my boys Creations released their brand new video for “The Wolf, The Clothes” from their upcoming album entitled ‘The Gospel’.

It’s been a pleasure working with the band since the beginning of their career and watching them develop into the fierce live act and successful band that they have become.

Their first show was opening up an all ages venue in Newcastle, Australia when we were there on tour with For Today in 2009, we stayed at Jonny’s house for a few days and got to know the guys.

I became friends with the guys and ended up taking them on as a management client when I was representing a handful of bands and was able to help them out with touring the USA and finding a good record label.

I eventually sold them off to a bigger and better management firm, which was always the goal.

I’m proud of what we achieved together and stoked that everything has worked out well with Mediaskare (great label and great dudes) and their relocation to California.

Since then Saving Grace have toured with Creations twice, taking them out on our headliner run in NZ last summer and most recently on the INRI Clothing Young Bloods tour in the US this April… great times!

Make sure to catch Creations on tour all over the USA this summer and definitely pick up a copy of ‘The Gospel’ when it drops on Rite of Passage/Mediaskare Records August 16th.

If I could go back in time ten years ago and tell the teenage me that today my band would be signed to Facedown Records there is no way I would have believed it… When we started Saving Grace close to seven years ago we were just kids who had no idea about who we were, we were just trying to start something new and we wanted to make it about God. This was a strange concept for both Nick and I as we both grew up completely outside of Christian circles and both had a troubled and dark history, far removed from church, Christian spirituality and we were both deeply rooted in the darker side of hard secular music. Two misunderstood kids who met through a mutual love for heavy music, who didn’t fit in at high school; pissed off at the world and dreaming of doing nothing, but performing music in front of whoever would listen. God is so gracious and so loving, that His heart is to see His kids grow up and do what their heart desires, whilst bringing glory to His name and doing work for His kingdom. Years down the track we have travelled all over the world, playing to thousands of people proclaiming the truth of the gospel, performing the heaviest music we could have ever imagined writing, filled with anointing and favour… that we do not deserve. We have headlined many tours, played countless festivals, played with pretty much every band we ever dreamed of even seeing live and are about to put out our third album with the dream record label. I could ramble on for hours about the ups and downs, trials, travels, terrors, blessings and blunders of being in a touring band, but all in all I am just so thankful to be playing music with my best friends and doing it for Christ, growing in faith and experience with every new day. The teenage me would have lost his mind over and over during the course of the last few years. We often find ourselves saying “If it all ends today, I would be more than content because this has been so much more than we could have ever dreamt” and then God opens another door… What’s next? only He knows. ‘The King is Coming’ available Winter 2011 on Facedown Records

Anonymous asked: what is someone meant to do when they thought themselves as a christian but drink most weekends and swear quite a bit and wants to be a commited christian and to have feel gods power inside them?

Ask for the Holy Spirit to guide you, read your word and get into fellowship with some Christian friends… iron sharpens iron.

God is not limited by our circumstances, shortcomings or lack of discipline, be responsive to Him and He will take care of the things that could be getting in the way.

The power of God inside of you will become more evident as you learn, grow and mature in your faith!

God Bless you friend.

If we’re not making much of Christ, then we’re just making noise.
And there’s already plenty of noise out there in the world.
