Sidewalk Prophets

"Eminence speakers are by far the best sounding, most dependable speakers weve ever used. Were out on the road most of the year and Eminence has continually delivered the quality of sound to meet all of our performance needs. Eminence is the only way to go!" - Sidewalk Prophets The Sidewalk Prophets are an unlikely group of poets, musicians, and fun-lovers who have been brought together by the blood of Jesus Christ to share the hope, faith, tragedy, and love that is the reality of Christianity. For over 5 years the Sidewalk Prophets have been traveling across the United States and overseas sharing the redeeming love of Jesus Christ. They are armed with a dynamic songwriting duo comprised of college dorm mates turned best friends David Frey and Ben McDonald. Frey is equipped with an unrivaled vocal range and a distinct soulful voice that is full of engaging passion. McDonald brings an undeniable drive and passion for writing songs that will engage both churched and unchurched listeners. The band has been hitting the road hard for the past 3 years playing 150+ shows a year worldwide. Theyve been making thousands of friends and fans in the process. Along the way the band has achieved some longtime goals of playing with bands they looked up to as teenagers. The band has had the honor of sharing the stage with acts like Jeremy Camp, Audio Adrenaline, Stellar Kart, Building 429, and Ginny Owens as well as many others. The Sidewalk Prophets main focus is to make young people feel comfortable being who God has created them to be. Young people today more than ever have the task of living in a world that places so much value on fitting in and achieving the perfect image. The band travels with the slogan Image is nothing_love is everything. Dave from the Sidewalk Prophets explains the bands vision like this, We have traveled all over the United States working with young people and there is one resounding problem that we run into. The problem is that our young people are being pressured to live up to the worlds standard of success. The world is selling the idea that image is everything but we know that the only way this can be true is by helping Gods children young and old realize that an image molded after Christ is the only image worth striving for. The Sidewalk Prophets have had appeal not only to young people but to their parents and grandparents as well. Their musical pallet includes an eclectic group of influences from past to present which allows the band to connect with almost anyone who listens. Their sound is a melting pot which culminates into an original blend of acoustic rock music. Their shows bring the depth of a singer/songwriter and the energy of a rock & roll band. In June of 2007 the band packed up their bags and headed south to Nashville, TN in hopes of expanding their platform to do ministry. In the winter of 2009 Sidewalk Prophets signed with Fervent Records and the band plans on releasing their debut album in August 2009.
