38 Acres
Sister Hazel meets David Crowder Band meets Vertical Horizon meets Live.
With a sound as diverse and creatively unique as the land itself, 38 ACRES takes us from resting in the quiet valleys to soaring over the highest peaks and all the spaces in between. Their driving rhythms, big guitars, and deep expressive lyrics take us on a pilgrimage following the river of life as it rushes over boulders and slows into the deep still pools of contemplation. Writing "what they live", the different backgrounds and experiences of these sojourners blend to produce a song repertoire that ranges from the broken posture of "Say" to the quirky humor found in "Monkey". With a mix of excellent instrumental interpretations and strong vocal lines, 38 ACRES brings to life a sound and a feeling that is as unique as it is memorable.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Asking me to describe the sound of 38 Acres is like asking someone to lie on their backs in the green grass and describe in detail the ever-changing formation of clouds as they pass overhead. Key word..."ever-changing".
If you're looking for The Fray, they're not it. If you're looking for Fallout Boy, they're not it, either. If you're looking for David Crowder Band, Coldplay, Tomlin, Sister Hazel (this list could go on and on)...nope. However, if you're looking for something that's a mix of all of these and then some, 38 Acres has your ticket.
"Their pulsing rhythms, chiming guitars, and heartfelt adoration pull us along on a pilgrimage following the river of life as it rushes over boulders and slows into the deep, still pools of contemplation."
So, the next time you find yourself lying on your back gazing up at the ever-changing formation of clouds in a clear blue sky, be reminded...38 Acres is sorta like that.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes we play live. Where? Well you could catch us at an annual fall festival in our hometown park, formerly known as "38 Acres". You might hear us while you're standing in line for a coaster at Six Flags Great America. It's possible that you catch us at a club in Chicago on a Saturday night and then wake up to us at a church in the burbs on Sunday morning. On your radio? Streaming online? At your venue? Wherever.
