MORE ABOUT FELLOWSHIP CREATIVE:
Fellowship Creative is not just a new band making music out of their growing church. It is truly a movement with a core group of like-minded people who decided to collaborate their music, all of which was organically grown out of Scriptural teaching and the grit of everyday life. Simply said, the music of Fellowship Creative begins and ends with the Church.

Their album Running To Follow is truly the result of raw, honest collaboration at the intersection of faith and art. "We did not set out with an agenda to create art for the sake of creating art, but instead we're moved and motivated by the movement of life change taking place through our church," Derric Bonnot, one of the Fellowship Creative leaders, shares. "We were inspired by the movement that we were part of in our church, and it's that movement that inspired this art. Now we're just excited to see how God's going to use that art to continue the movement, not just in our church but in the bigger picture of the story He's telling about who He is."

Running To Follow was produced by CJ Eiriksson (U2, Matchbox Twenty), who, with a limited background in Christian music, helped form the album to a cohesive unit.
