We are so excited to announce that we have earned a slot to compete in the band competition at Creation Fest this year! We’ve been turned down by a lot of festivals that we applied for in the last 8 months and just when we only had an ounce of hope left, this HUGE opportunity came to our inbox! Many bands apply to compete, but only a few get selected and I was so excited to see that withLove was chosen. At the beginning of every year, we set goals for the band and one of them was to play at a major festival. We’ve set that goal year after year, only to find ourselves playing at smaller festivals hoping for the right opportunity to come our way. Well THIS IS IT. Our first of many…hopefully.
We strive to bridge the cultural and ethnic divides that so readily exist especially in the music community. And now we have an opportunity to extend our diverse sound to a larger audience that needs to hear our much needed message. That message is: God is love. And He exists everywhere that there is love, no matter the culture, ethnicity, gender, or background. We just want to be an example of God’s love even as a diverse band in a largely mono-colored festival. I really can’t wait to hear all the various sounds of the different bands that will be there and make some great connections with other musicians and community at large.
My heart is that people would connect with God through our music, and that our passion to worship would overflow from our hearts in a way that is refreshing and inspiring to love in the midst of a world of hate. And to simply enjoy what we do! Have fun. And build relationships with everyone we encounter. I want to keep my mind open to whatever God has in store for us at Creation Fest from the possible to the seemingly impossible. Please pray for us that we go far in this tournament and that most of all, that people would get experience LOVE through what we do in a powerful, intimate way!
If you’re coming, please scream as loud as you can for us! We love you!
withLove,
