| The band
was originally formed from a Music and Drama Workshop which aimed
to bring together the talents of young people in the church. The
idea was to generate ideas for witnessing the gospel message through
different art forms. Later on as various people came and went, those
left decided not to continue with the drama and reform as a smaller
music group, committed to performing original songs with the purpose
of spreading the Word. Two members of the band 'Six of One' (Andy
de Witt and Tim Stephens) were involved in the early days, giving
it quite a folk rock influence while deWitt contributed most of
the original songs, and inspired others to pick up the pen.
