Dec. 1, 2009 (Nashville, TN) – The release of Big Daddy Weave’s first Christmas CD, Christ Is Come, is earning the renowned band additional acclaim this holiday season.
As the five-member group embarked Sunday eve on an eastern U.S. Christmas tour with fellow industry veterans Newsong, Big Daddy Weave’s Christ Is Come is garnering nationwide attention among music critics. Comments from sources include:
Worship Leader magazine
Beautifully produced Southern rock worship songs with the addition of original bridges and songs for you to use in your service of worship… Christ Is Come is high-quality acoustic rock backed by string sections and a bit of a Southern spice to mull on during this season.

Touching delivery of tradition tunes and amazing original songs make Big Daddy Weave's Christmas project a winner in every category.
Christianity Today
If ever Dave Matthews Band was to record a Christmas album, it might sound a bit like Christ Is Come—well, maybe minus the gospel-specific title track… These guys know how to make tight pop records with a little extra treat, and apparently, Christmastime is no exception.
Iowa City Press-Citizen
Mike Weaver is charismatic and convincing, and this bedrock Christian quintet's unbroken 11 years on the road are evidenced in skin-tight arrangements, powerhouse chops (esp. hot-shot guitarist/producer/do-it-all Jeremy Redmon) and majestic, near-U2-worthy anthems.

Expanding your Christmas music collections just got a little simpler with the release of “Christ Is Come”. In a time when many band’s new releases sound like re-treads of older releases, Big Daddy Weave puts forth a fresh reverent project that will help keep Christmas 2009 fresh in our hearts.
Big Daddy Weave’s single, “I’ll Be Brave This Christmas,” is additionally garnering attention for Christ Is Come as stations across the U.S. begin their holiday rotations. The song honors military families with deployed loved ones and is the influential song behind the national “Be Brave This Christmas” campaign to celebrate and thank American soldiers.
