ATLANTA, Ga.–The critically-acclaimed Michael Gungor Band has signed with Atlanta-based Brash Music, and will release its debut CD for the label, Ancient Skies, on September 9. The project was self-produced, and features a set of thirteen songs either written or co-written by Gungor.

“I’m thrilled to be part of Brash Music,” said Gungor. “It’s exciting to share my passion about this project with them, and I’m looking forward to sharing this set of songs, which were written for my church, with a much larger audience.”

Although this is The Michael Gungor Band’s first project for Brash Music, the group has already achieved a level of success more commonly associated with a veteran artist. They have performed for more than a hundred thousand fans around the country, including this year’s Hillsong Conference in Sydney, Australia. The first single from Ancient Skies, “Giving It All,” is rapidly climbing the radio charts, and “Say So,” a song co-written by Gungor won a Dove Award earlier this year. Additionally, the group’s music has met with critical acclaim from national media outlets including Christianity Today.com, which named the band’s 2007 independent release as one of the year’s top worship projects.

“The Michael Gungor Band is a great fit for Brash,” said Steve Jones, president of Brash Music. “More than anything else, we’re looking for multi-faceted artists who are passionate about their music. This band has an excellent mix of strong songs and great musical talent, and we’re excited to partner with them on this album.”

About The Michael Gungor Band
The Denver, Colo.-based Michael Gungor Band has quickly become one of Christian music’s most exciting new groups. Led by front man Michael Gungor and his wife Lisa, the group also includes Brad Nyght (drums) and Brad Waller (bass). As a songwriter, Gungor has penned several well-known worship songs including “Friend of God,” a song co-written with Grammy Award winner Israel Houghton that has become one of the Top 20 songs sung in churches around the world according to CCLI.
