David Crowder Band
About
David Crowder Band
The short of the story begins-Crowder as a college student, sitting in
his bedroom trying to figure out what to play on a Sunday morning. He
and a friend had achieved no small task by starting a church for their
fellow Baylor University schoolmates. Thousands of students attending a
Christian college, and almost half of them not stepping foot in any sort
of church.
So there is young Crowder, sitting on the floor of his apartment,
listening to one CD after another with the goal of finding some good
music to lead the congregation. At this point, you might say that God
intervened in the situation. That is if you believe that God would
intervene in a situation in the form of your neighbor bursting through
the door in a cloud of cigarette smoke, telling you that whatever you
are listening to sounds like, well, something that cannot be printed
here. Because that's what happened, and that's when Crowder decided it
was time to write some songs that the students in his church could
relate to, possibly for the first time in their lives. And thus, the
birth of the David Crowder Band.
Time passed, players came and went, and eventually the current lineup
came into being, and committed to staying together. An independent
record was made for those at the church, but a funny thing happened.
After awhile people from other parts of the country began showing some
interest in the little band from central Texas. Offers began coming in
for the band to play in various places, and coming in, and coming in,
and coming in…The band was signed to Sixsteps/Sparrow records, and the
rest is, shall we say, history.
