<description><![CDATA[Casting Crowns started out like so many other Christian bands, leading worship at their home church, and then rocketed "accidentally" to chartbusting status. While similar Atlanta bands were branching out, lead man Mark Hall opted to keep their indie recordings local and continue his 12-year run as youth pastor at Eagle's Landing First Baptist Church. But their CD ended up in the hands of Sawyer Brown frontman Mark Miller, who picked the group up for his Beach Street Records, a fledgling label launched by Miller and CCM juggernaut, Steven Curtis Chapman. From there, it only took six months for Casting Crowns to turn every head, hitting big with the pull-no-punches single "If We Are The Body," which was apparently just the kind of challenging lyrics listeners and the church in general wanted to hear. Favor continued to smile on them with "What If His People Prayed," and the penetrating, melodic ballad "Who Am I." So great was their success with this debut recording that they jumped straight to the live album phase of their career, releasing an EP of the same set with a previously unreleased cover of "Beautiful Savoir." The plan worked, as Casting Crowns, <I> Live From Atlanta</I> showed their truest musicality, recording from the place they began -- live and in-the-moment worship with the people, the music and the praise.

<description><![CDATA[Toby Mac, one third of the influential DC Talk and the last band member to branch out, has proven to be a solid -- and diverse -- solo force. His music ranges from melodic beats with Latin flair ("Irene"), to hardcore house/hip-hop ("Get this Party Started"), to hilariously brilliant skits ("Triple Skinny," "Tru Dog"). Mac knows engineering like Yo-Yo Ma knows the cello, and his immaculately studio-refined music reflects that passion for production. In just the blink of an album, this mastermind behind DC Talk has established himself as a unique independent performer and producer.

<description><![CDATA[Like the chicken and the egg, it's hard to say exactly which came first: alternative bands recording standard Sunday morning praise and worship songs, or praise and worship bands picking up the alternative sound and injecting new life into the church music scene. Either way, Passion Worship Band have done both, inadvertently becoming one of a small but vastly influential group of forefathers in the modern worship movement -- so much so that for a while it was called "The Passion Movement," inspired by their <I>Passion</I> album series. Suddenly, worshipers were crying "turn it up"; the acoustic guitar made friends with driving, wired guitar riffs; drum sets on church platforms grew Plexiglas soundboards; and church worship leaders became the new hot charting artists and Dove nominees (like Matt Redman, Mark Schultz and the epic Darlene Zschech). The David Crowder Band, Chris Tomlin and Charlie Hall were partners in the movement and on its tour, which drew hundreds of thousands of college-age people looking to marry their love of the music and their love of the Lord. And a musical era was born.

<description><![CDATA[Amy Grant is the biggest star CCM has ever produced -- a sensation as a strictly Christian artist in the 1980s and an equally successful AdCo figure in the years since she left Myrrh Records and "went secular," as they say. Grant's music has always been light, pop-styled and borne on the wings of her impressive voice, and the only major difference between her Myrrh work and her work on A&M is that her albums became more slickly produced. The song titles might not be so blatantly Christian as before, but Grant's beliefs have always been the main focus of her songs.

<description><![CDATA[When Matthew West didn't get the baseball scholarship he had his eye on, he put down the bat, picked up a guitar, and decided to pursue a major in music Millikin University. By graduation, he had a multi-campus following, including some prayerful supporters who surprised him by covering a sizable price tag to send him to the Gospel Music Association's "Seminar in the Rockies." There, he attracted the attention of a Nashville mover and shaker, who set him on the course of his chosen path. Although convinced this was what he was meant to do, West still suffered some trials, like writing his first hits for other artists (Rachael Lampa, Sara Groves, Salvador, etc.) and putting his hand through a window, which almost curbed the guitar playing permanently. The happy ending came with the debut of the appropriately titled <I>Happy.</I> Label execs had tried to narrow his focus for the album's sake, but West insisted that mixing it up <I>was</I> his style, so he laid it all down in wax Â acoustic, guitar pop and alt rock akin to Matchbox Twenty (check out the single "More" and title track). For all West's subtle eclecticism, those two tracks left the impression they were most 'him' and pretty much indicated where he was headed.

<description><![CDATA[Zschech is arguably the single most well known and successful contemporary worship leader, much to the thanks of her record-breaking praise song "Shout to the Lord." It's been recorded on 20 albums and sung by an estimated 25 million churchgoers every week. She reaches several million more first hand, leading worship for televised services broadcast in 125 countries worldwide. Her ministry as Worship Pastor at Hillsong Church, one of the largest churches in Sydney, Australia, gives her a platform to "reach the nations" with her growing list of published praise songs and inimitable heart and soul.

<description><![CDATA[Nichole Nordeman is blessed with the gift of lyricism. Possessing a voice weighted with sincerity, this signature singer-songwriter has gained tremendous respect in a few short years, racking up non-stop Dove Awards for her mature and penetrating music. A self-described "wrestling poet," Nordeman is responsible for life-changing songs like "Healed" and such mega-hits as "Legacy" and "Holy." The minor chords and inventive rhythms in the soul-searching "Is It Any Wonder" and "Wide Eyed" are especially addictive. Heady, gorgeous, folksy and appreciatively deep, Nordeman's artistry is new gold.

<description><![CDATA[Rebecca St. James is one of the finest Christian rockers, bringing an Alternative Rock edge to thoughtful, but often bracing pop. This young Australian artist is a real talent and a rarity in the world of mainstream spiritual pop since she deals with spiritual matters in a very direct way.

<description><![CDATA[With a band name referencing the number of years Jesus walked the earth,
33 Miles wears their Christian influence proudly. After growing up in
different southern states, deeply immersed in the church, Jason Barton
(lead vocals), Chris Lockwood (guitar and vocals) and Collin Stoddard
(piano and vocals) were first brought together in Nashville, Tennessee, as
performers and believers in Christ. With a sound that blends the
country-rock harmonies of Rascal Flatts with a modern pop twist, they
released their first single, "What Could Be Better," in early 2007.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Point of Grace are the favorite CCM sugar pop girl band, with more substance in their melodies than you'd expect of a pop outfit. The "Girls of Grace" (actually the title of their 2002 compilation) have put 10 years of harmonic know-how into laying down classics like "The Great Divide" and "Keep the Candle Burning." Their ministry jumps off of the musical page in the long-running theme of mentoring young girls and women, but their musical destiny was obvious right from their self-titled debut, an album that hit with six No. 1 singles. That feat remains unsurpassed by any other artist or album in any genre. It might sound hard to keep <I>that</I> candle burning, but after five gold albums, one platinum, eight Doves and multiple Grammy nods, P.O.G. made further mainstream pop history with a record-breaking 24 consecutive No. 1 hit radio singlesÃÂÃÂand counting.

<description><![CDATA[Jaci Velasquez is one of the few Christian artists who can respectfully pull off the role of pop diva. She signed her first record deal at 14; less than 10 years later, she's not only hit platinum repeatedly, but she's earned Billboard and Dove awards, as well as several Grammy nominations. Velasquez's everyday contemporary style is defined by her strong and bare voice, which is balanced with light concert-pop, Latin roots (though barely detectable on her English-language albums), and evocatively earnest ballads. "On My Knees" is an across-the-board favorite.

<description><![CDATA[The Australian sensation Michelle Tumes has quickly gone from a Christian chart topper to a major player in mainstream pop. Tumes and her production team craft intriguing, well-textured backings to what is otherwise very mainstream pop. Think of Amy Grant getting into Madonna without aping her stereotypically sensual aspect.

<description><![CDATA[Jump 5 <I>are</I> the ebullient sound of bubblegum popping. Tailor-made for radio play, they were created specifically as marketable boy/girl band, the new force to call upon when the Disney Channel needs an upbeat theme song. They not only skyrocketed to their intended success, but also quite surprisingly hit repeatedly on the Christian Adult Contemporary radio charts. Already a product of crazy mixes and meticulous production, they've made poppy re-vamped hits of yesterday's feel-good classics, including "We Are Family," which became Radio Disney's theme for its Family Pledge Initiative. These kids exude an infectious, school's-out-for-summer vibe. They're so cute, it's a little scary, but you couldn't knock 'em if you tried.

<description><![CDATA[Spun off from the choral group Truth, 4Him are a dramatic, tight-knit CCM
blockbuster band that has been delivering anthemic pop since 1990, when
they released their self-titled debut. They've figured out a no-fail
formula for unforgettable licks and stirring progressions, making them
responsible for a laundry list of industry classics. Heartrending power
ballads like "For Future Generations" and "The Basics of Life" are just the
tip of the iceberg -- their gifted songwriting is completed by the sincere,
compassionate and fluid vocals of frontman Kirk Sullivan.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Since 1999, Zoegirl have zoned in on being Christian pop role models. Admitting that the "Spice Girls route" isn't their natural tendency, they choose to emphasize their love for their audience and to serve as a force for good in a "colorful" industry. Their message, directed toward tween and teen girls, has always been about purity, hope, strength, confidence and faith. Their song style has been only slightly less constant -- their fourth album, 2003's <I>Different Kind of Free</I>, modified their sound from power/sugar pop to pop rock, much like Rebecca St. James' slight tilt after her first few albums in the 1990s. Some of Zoegirl's heaviest hitters include "You Get Me" and the effervescent, slightly Carman-influenced "Anything Is Possible."

<description><![CDATA[Stacie Orrico released her first album when she was barely out of elementary school. That alone would be impressive enough, but when you factor in Orrico's mature voice and polished, professional demeanor you know you're dealing with a formidable talent. As part of the mainstream CCM musical movement, Orrico doesn't restrict herself to spiritual themes. Her songs (many of which she co-writes) also wrestle with teen love and various contemporary issues. As a result, her records do very well with the crossover pop audience, in addition to regularly topping the Christian music charts. Though she's already a charismatic performer, it will be even more interesting to see how her music and career develop over the coming years.

<description><![CDATA[Incredibly popular since the early 1970s, Carman has remained larger-than-life and striking in every facet, from the production quality of his albums to his enunciation. He concocts an almost theatrical level of spirituality and patriotism in his recordings and concerts, and although it borders now and then on the overdramatic, somehow it works. Vigorously emotive songs like "America Again" and "Mission 3:16," formulaically enthusiastic finales, and a solidly smooth Engelbert Humperdinck voice leave even critics admitting that Carman packs an irresistibly powerful punch.

<description><![CDATA[Husband and wife duo Watermark came to and end in 2006 -- not the marriage,
just the music. They gave the industry four fine contemporary Christian
albums and a farewell collection all blessed by Nathan Nockels' piano and
guitar (and occasional vocals) and Christy Nockels' sweet, sweet singing.
Their most widely recognizable contribution is the pop hit "More Than You'll
Ever Know" from the album <I>All Things New</I>. Their influence lingers as
Nathan partners with other artists' projects, and Christy makes guest
appearances, most notably on Passion Worship's offerings, since she has had
a long history with the band. But their primary focus post-2006 is as
parents to their daughter, the inspiration behind "Elliana's Song," featured
on their final album, <I>A Grateful People</I>.

<description><![CDATA[Phil Driscoll first appeared in 1969 with <i>A Touch of Trumpet</I>, a secular record that showcased his ability on the instrument and kicked off a career that has brought him no small amount of success in both mainstream and Christian circles. After a stint in the mid-1970s as a jazz/rock/pop musician, Driscoll began to release records that focused on his religious beliefs and brought his Joe Cocker-esque vocals to the forefront.

<description><![CDATA[When Rachael Lampa first hit, she could have disappeared in what was nearly an "era" of very young, extraordinarily vocally-endowed pop divas. Fourteen-year-old Lampa's debut was released the same <I>month</I> as that of fellow 14-year-old powerhouse, Stacie Orrico. The reason Lampa didn't get lost in the 2000 deluge? She was too good. She laid down several hits, made a name for herself, then waited two years before releasing a whole new sound -- and she was still only in her teens. Appropriately, the latter release was also her first self-titled LP and it was filled with tunes that she co-wrote. Finally, she had truly grown into her voice and sang her own heart's desire, coming to life to unexpected degrees and offering a changed, matured sound. It's hard to imagine where she'll go from here.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Michael English has been performing Christian music in a variety of styles since the early 1990s, attempting an outright break into the secular market only once. He has always straddled that line, however, and has appealed to fans of AAA throughout his career. His return to CCM in 1998 with <i>Gospel</i> was a rootsy effort showcasing his southern beginnings and employing earthy instruments such as dobro and harmonica. His exploration of his roots continues with tracks such as a cover of Jim Croce's "Time in a Bottle," which strips things down to simple acoustic guitar and English's powerful tenor.

<description><![CDATA[Acoustic Worship isn't so much a band as a <I>brand</>. Maranatha fills a niche with their easy listening, standard praise music in straight rhythms. It's what you might get if you mixed the gentleness of John Michael Talbot, the acoustic hip-ness of Keith Green and the innocent ensemble harmony of the Partridge Family (on the more up-beat, tambourine-fortified AW pieces). The studio work of Acoustic Worship fills different types of listening purposes: It can be soothing, non-invasive praise and worship (sometimes background music); or it often serves as a go-to reference for the original melody line of worship songs which can get skewed when being sung by so many thousands of different directors and church groups around the world. From either direction, Maranatha! are the leader in their style and always a peaceful environment-setter.

<description><![CDATA[Big Tent Revival expertly craft CCM songs that combine Beatles-esque production techniques and harmonies with an amiable rootsiness that never sounds hokey or false. The lyrics are all consistently straightforward, at their best revealing a gentle, loving spirit. At their worst, the lyrics greatly oversimplify issues such as the separation of church and state.
