Amongst The Giants lead singer Brian Boyd
Collaborations and band member-sharing. There is a whole lot of both happening these days in Christian Rock, and a lot of it happened at the Kingdom Come Festival this month. Matt Baird showed up on stage to do It’s OK with Death Therapy; Marco Pera (of Amongst The Giants) played bass for Disciple; Chaotic Resemblance’s drummer John Jakway banged the skins in an emergency for Spoken; and any time you have multiple Rockfest Records bands present, the Rockfest fam comes together. Here is a snippet of Amongst The Giants in concert, with help from Zahna and The Persuaded: https://www.facebook.com/TheBlastFM/videos/732599020904851/
That’s Spoken lead singer and founder Matt Baird above pouring his heart out through song at the Kingdom Come Festival near Greentown, Indiana earlier this month. We have a video of them performing their current Christian rock radio hit The Way Back Home here: https://www.facebook.com/TheBlastFM/videos/2762988670602682/
Jason Wisdom, lead singer of Death Therapy, is on the left, and Spoken’s Matt Baird is on the right.
They did it! The Blast’s Colin Cruz had been wondering on air for this for weeks: since Spoken and Death Therapy played on the same day at Kingdom Come Festival…will Matt Baird hop on stage to do It’s OK with Death Therapy? We asked both bands online. Normally, they answer our questions. But not this one. And…surprise! It happened!
You can hear Colin Cruz say “Where’s Matt?!” early in the song and “There’s Matt!!!” later in the song when he shows up.
We have the video for the song here: https://www.facebook.com/TheBlastFM/videos/202328547886148/
Spoken lead singer Matt Baird performing at Kingdom Come Fest 2020
Spoken was the Friday night headliner at this year’s Kingdom Come Festival near Greentown, Indiana last weekend. But at 10 pm Thursday night, a conundrum presented itself to lead singer/founder Matt Baird: their hired gun drummer couldn’t make it to the Friday night show!
Umm….
So, Baird and guitarist JR Baries got on the horn with friends in other bands, particularly other bands that were playing at the same festival.
John Jakway, the drummer for Chaotic Resemblance, filled in admirably as the skin-banger Friday night.
His band played on Saturday at the festival.
Baird revealed during the show that their 10 year old song Dagger will be on the next Spoken album, but in a different form than the original.
Dagger has yet to land on a Spoken album. Well, finally the dagger is about to stick.
