Casting Crowns Chords

If you are looking for Casting Crowns chords you came to the right place! The contemporary Christian rock band was founded in 1999 by Mark Hall, who remains the group’s lead vocalist and songwriter until today and is also pastor at Eagle's Landing First Baptist Church in McDonough. Originally, Casting Crowns was part of a youth group at the First Baptist Church in Downtown Daytona Beach in Florida. When they moved to Stockbridge, Georgia, more artists joined. Today the group consists of seven members: Mark Hall (lead vocals), Juan DeVevo (guitar and background vocals), Chris Huffman (bass and background vocals), Megan Garrett (piano, keyboards, backing vocals), Melodee DeVevo (violin, background vocals, cello), Brian Scoggin (drums) and Josh Mix (lead guitar and background vocals).

Inspired by Christian faith

Casting Crowns’ chords are gentle but bold at the same time and known for being very much guitar-based and uplifting, providing the background for their deep lyrics that are predominantly inspired by Christianity. For instance, the lyrics of their fifth studio album Come to the Well, released in October 2011, were inspired by the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. All of their tracks deal with profound, meaningful issues, as does for example their song "Voice Of Truth"; it addresses the learning struggles Hall experienced as a child because he got diagnosed with dyslexia.

High - Flyers

Their first self-titled album Casting Crowns (2003) quickly gained popularity, especially among followers of Chrisitanity and eventually acquired platinum status. Ever since its inception, Casting Crowns have continuously proven that they are a force to be reckoned with and have collected a multitude of awards — During the past years they have, amongst other things, been rewarded with a Grammy and a Dove Award. Their album The Altar and the Door reached number two of the Billboard album charts in 2007, while their single “East to West” simultaneously stayed on top of the Christian charts for a full 16 consecutive weeks. While they have a huge following of believers, they have also gained popularity among secular audiences. In fact, their chords are so popular that Casting Crowns remain one of the only American bands to ever have been welcomed to perform in North Korea where they attended the 2009 Spring Friendship Arts Festival in Pyongyang.
