SBG is a CHRISTIAN Rock/Blues band from South East Wisconsin. We have been "jamming for Jesus" for over ten years, playing shows from Greenbay, WI to Nashville, TN. Our music is undeniably Christian in content. No watered down Christianity here, just straight forward Jesus lovin' music!
Why this name?
A Christian band named Saved by Grace? How much more appropriate can you get?
Do you play live?
We play quite a few shows a year, mostly in the WI, IL region but we do travel! We love road trips and the best times are when people talk to us after a show about how our songs or ministry touched a part of their life!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet and MP3s have changed the industry by giving the underdog a chance to be heard. Downloading a song from a band to find out if you like them is less risky than buying the whole album, just to find out the band wasn't your "cup of tea"!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I think that given the right contract and freedoms as an artist SBG would be more than willing to sign a contract.
Band History:
MISSION STATEMENT:
"Our mission statement starts with the root phrase of what we are... A Christian - Band! This means we are CHRISTIANS first and foremost and the band is the tool by which we portray the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The main point of an SBG show is not to entertain as much as it is to portray how much fun and excitement is involved in being a Christian. If you happen to walk away feeling entertained, well that's great! But if you walk away from an SBG show with nothing more than a deeper love for our Lord and Savior THEN we have achieved our goal! Don't get me wrong, we can keep an audience up and having a blast but it's when we talk about HIM that the true meaning of what we do and WHO we do it for shines through."
