(NASHVILLE, TN) July 22, 2008 – Celebrating a decade with all original members still intact, Fervent Records’ Big Daddy Weave releases its fifth album, What Life Would Be Like, today to critical acclaim.

Here’s what a few reviewers are saying:

You'll want to keep this one in your player for awhile. There are so many bands in the music industry today that makes it hard to keep up with new bands, let alone those of veteran status. It's records like this one, though, that make you revisit a band's past, appreciate their work in the present, and anticipate their future. If you are a newcomer to the music of Big Daddy Weave, congratulations - you have found a truly remarkable album that will prove your musical journey worthwhile. If you're already a fan, your devotion has been rewarded with What Life Would Be Like.

There’s no denying that What Life Would Be Like showcases Big Daddy Weave’s talent and versatility.
-Christian Retailing

What Life Would Be Like is a call to me and to everyone else who is sick and tired of same-old-same-old, to learn how to let Jesus live through us. It is that revelation, combined with the heightened amount of collaboration on the new songs, that makes What Life Would Be Like the climactic culmination of Big Daddy Weave’s first decade together.

It’s been nearly six years to the day since Big Daddy Weave released its national label debut to the masses. Ever since, the pop/rock quintet has remained at the forefront of Christian music, releasing a handful of heavily played radio tunes, hitting the road for back-to-back tours and selling hundreds of thousands of units. Not a bad track record for a band that has consistently made a point of prioritizing ministry over media attention…With a stretch of steady sales over four records and an incredibly contagious fifth disc that is progressing the band into its brightest era yet, Big Daddy Weave is headed down a good road. Let’s just hope they keep inviting us along for the ride.

While their previous album, Every Time I Breathe, was recorded to encourage people to view every moment as a chance to live in response to the greatness of God, What Life Would Be Like celebrates that response. What Life Would Be Like is produced by Big Daddy Weave member Jeremy Redmon, who also produced the band’s Fields of Grace, What I Was Made For and the 2007 album, Every Time I Breathe.

Big Daddy Weave hit the spotlight in 2002 when One and Only debuted in SoundScan’s Christian Top 5, the highest debut for a new artist that year. Garnering its first CHR No. 1 at radio with “Audience of One,” the band’s other chart-topping songs include “You’re Worthy Of My Praise” (What I Was Made For) and title cut, “Every Time I Breathe.” Big Daddy Weave has additionally been featured on several special event albums such as: Dove Hits, WoW Hits, WoW Worship, WoW Christmas and the Absolute series.

Fervent Records is a part of Word Label Group, a division of Word Entertainment, a Warner/Curb company. Fervent Records’ roster heralds some of today’s top Christian performers including BarlowGirl, Big Daddy Weave, Group 1 Crew, pureNRG, CADIA and newcomer Francesca Battistelli.
