As far as Christian music goes, I listen mostly to Rebecca St. James, Rachel Lampa, Stacie Orrico, Nate Sallie, Superchi[k] and Barlow Girl. But I also listen to a lot of non-Christian music.

I love the sound. Rock is like the WHOLE energy that flows through ones blood and emotions and to hear a chic [no offense if any is taken by the term] in a rock band... I love it. The sound is amazing. ;]

For the most part, but I like Christian Contemp as well. Like Natalie Grant, the Pocket Full of Rocks, MercyMe, Michael W. Smith, Mark Harris, Brian Littrel. I'm pretty well rounded. ;]

lol. I go to a Christian school where they think contemporary Christian music is evil. Yeah, the people at my school are pretty messed up.
Anyway, I'm a little embarrassed to say that I don't listen to Christian music quite as much as I probably should. Here are the Christian bands/singers that I like at least one song from:
-BarlowGirl ("Never Alone" is great)
-Superchic[k] ("We Live," also great)
-Rebecca St. James (my mom loves her music, so I hear it around the house and the car all the time. I like quite a few songs by her)
-TobyMac (I'm not a huge fan of hip-hop, but I like his music)
-Skillet ("Whispers in the Dark" is awesome)
A few years ago I listened to a lot of Jump5. lol. Those were the days...
I guess I'm pretty lucky, because I've seen all of the bands and singers I listed above (with the exception of Skillet) perform live at least once. Up here in Wisconsin we have these two huge Christian music festivals every year. During the summer we have Lifest, a five-day festival with a ton of popular Christian bands (and also quite a few local ones). And at the beginning of November we have Power of One, which isn't quite as big or long as Lifest (it's indoors, only has one stage, and only goes on for one day), but they usually have at least a couple of really good acts.

Unfortunately, I've never seen anyone live...I know what ATF is, my sister watches the show all the time. As far as I know, there aren't any Christian festivals here. I've never seen anyone live as well. Just on TV. |
