Crowder Neon Steeple

After taking a year off, David Crowder is back and ready to release the all new album NEON STEEPLE. Simply known as Crowder, he describes the new music as folktronica, or a mixture of acoustic sounds and electronic beats. Crowder will also be hitting road with a headlining tour kicking off in the Spring.

Crowder was previously the frontman of David Crowder*Band who delivered their final album 'Give Us Rest or (a requiem mass in c [the happiest of all keys])' to a stellar #2 debut on the Billboard Top 200 Chart in January 2012. It marked the end of the era that brought songs to the church like 'How He Loves,' 'O Praise Him,' 'Everything Glorious,' 'No One Like You,' and many more. The group released 6 albums, selling over 1.3 million albums while winning 8 Dove Awards and receiving two GRAMMY nominations.

Singer/guitarist David Crowder first stepped into the music industry when he realized that over half of the students at Baylor University, a Christian school that he attended in Waco, Texas, were not going to church. He began to actively recruit students for worship services and started writing songs to draw more young people in. He eventually started releasing the songs, leading to his debut album, 2002's Can You Hear Us? The album was released under the name the David Crowder Band, as Crowder was joined by guitarists Jack Parker and Jason Solley, drummer Jeremy Bush, bassist Mike Dodson, and electric violinist Mike Hogan. Their sophomore effort, Illuminate, appeared in the fall of 2003 and was followed a year later by The Lime CD, which was comprised of two earlier live releases (The Green CD and The Yellow CD) that had been given out to fans who had either pre-ordered prior albums or attended various CD release parties. Sunsets & Sushi appeared in early 2005 before the band's next studio album, the bluegrass-tinged A Collision, was issued that fall. A spinoff of the latter album, entitled B Collision, came out a year later and focused even more on the group's delvings into bluegrass. Remedy was released in 2007, followed by Church Music in 2009. A four-song EP, Summer Happiness, featuring acoustic versions of songs from Church Music, appeared as an exclusive from iTunes in 2010. 2012's Give Us Rest; or, A Requiem Mass in C (the Happiest of All Keys) was the David Crowder Band's sixth and final studio album. It was followed in 2013 with Crowder's solo debut single "I Am", off the album Neon Steeple. Neon Steeple will be released on May 27, 2014.
