It's tough to listen to Luminate and not get it stuck in your head for quite a while afterwards. That's a good thing when you're shining the light of truth in your heart and ears like you are when listening to Welcome to Daylight. This will easily be one of the albums to tune into for fall 2012! - Youthwalk Magazine

Luminate continues to produce songs infused with a message of hope and love, encouraging their fans to live life with a purpose and share the love of Christ in practical ways every day. - CBA Retailers + Resources

Almost certain to receive a Dove Award nomination for Best Pop Contemporary Album of the Year; Luminate's sophomore record is one to write in the record books as one to catapult these four men into becoming one of Christian music's most lyrically relevant artists towards young people. - Indie Vision Music

They have upped their game and written an album that is one of my favorites this year. Luminate is one band worth checking out sooner rather than later. - Louder Than The Music

I was absolutely captivated by this album from the first note of the opening song. From the bright synthetic elements to the heart-on-your-sleeve songwriting, I can listen to the whole thing without skipping a single song. Distinct, delightful, and rather unexpected, this is one of my favorite albums of the year. - New Release Tuesday

Luminate is comprised of Sam Hancock (vocals), Cody Clark (guitar), Dusty Jakubik (bass), and Aaron Mathew (drums). After upcoming fall nuptials for Hancock who will marry Emily Smith, the daughter of Michael W. Smith, Luminate will share their music across the U.S. when they join Newsboys' God's Not Dead Tour in September and running through November.
