Orange County-originated band The Choir has been performing Christian alternative rock for three decades, producing three EPs, three live albums, and 14 albums total–including Grammy-nominated Fly Your Wings (2000). Though the band has certainly grown since their start in the ‘80s, one thing has remained constant: their devotion to life-mirroring lyrics. Take their latest album Shadow Weaver (2014), for example, which the band has stated on their website is about contrast: “It’s about light and dark,” they write. “Day, night. Hope, despair. Belief, disillusionment.” The album is a natural step forward from the band’s earlier albums which also revolved around personal experiences and observations, which they’ve continuously blended with alternative rock instrumentation.
