Youth Choir released their first album in 1985 on Broken Records, and they would later change their name on their next full-length release to the name we all know them as - The Choir. This review also combines their 1986 EP release, Shades of Gray, since these albums were both made available on one disc in 2000. The Choir consisted of Derri Daugherty on vocals and guitars, Steve Hindalong on drums and vocals, and Mike Sauerbrey on bass. Most have probably seen Steve Hindalong's name associated with several projects as a producer (The Prayer Chain, The Waiting, Common Children, Morella's Forrest, City On A Hill, among others) and he co-wrote the song "God of Wonders" which received a Dove Award for Song of the Year. Similarly, Derri Daugherty has produced for acts such as Twila Paris and currently owns a recording studio, Neverland, in Tennessee. The Choir is one of the many talented bands out there that never received the acclaim they deserved. After a dozen albums released by numerous labels and having garnered many award nominations (including a Gramy nomination), many people are still not aware of this band's existence. CCM Magazine even once stated that The Choir was "the best rock band in Christian music."
