Our influences were thrown into a big pot to make new-music soup. The flavor, while familiar, will have it's own tasty identity. GET YOUR OWN COPY OF OUR CD!!
Since January of 2005, the members in A Certain Sign (ACS) -- Tony Evangelista, Nate Hein, Bob Sweeney, Chris Nau and Kevin Bang -- have been writing and performing alternative Christian rock music. They released an EP in February of 2006, called "Opening Up", that is now distributed nationally, and available on iTunes and CD Baby.
ACS played numerous shows in support of this release, including the "Real Music" talent competition in April, which featured the premier Christian bands in Northeast Ohio. ACS also placed 13th out of 40 bands in the online Artist Ovation contest conducted in the summer of 2006. The band's most recent achievement is to be included in the upcoming Cleveland "Rockers for Life" compilation CD, which will include bands of all styles in the Cleveland area who have donated their talents to the fight against drunk driving. More information on this release is forthcoming.
The band has been influenced by songwriters and bands ranging from Bruce Springsteen to U2 to Audio Adrenaline to Kutless, with their music drawing comparisons to some of these acts. The message of the band is simple -- You have God-given talents. Use them to make other people's lives better, glorifying God. In doing this -- you will find fulfillment.
The fall of 2006 finds three of the members of ACS in college, while Kevin Bang and Bob Sweeney continue to play ACS and Kevin Bang songs -- mostly in coffee-house type venues.
The members of "ACS" continue to turn to God for his direction and guidance for their music ministry.
I noticed you are a Christian musician and wanted to invite you to visit (and hopefully join) the new network for Worldwide Worship Leaders and Musicians called 'Worship The Rock .com'.
It's a free web site for Worldwide worship leaders and musicians (of all ages) who are involved with leading worship or playing in a worship band to come and share wisdom, knowledge and also to be inspired and get equipped to excel in their gifts and learn to lead others in worship.
Some of the things you can expect to see on Worship The Rock are: Instructional videos, an active discussion forum, groups, blogs, worship music written by our members, set lists, photos and a community of worship leaders and musicians.
