The Great Whitecross & Guardian

If one has any familiarity with the history of Christian Rock, then the names Guardian and Whitecross quickly come to mind as some of the very finest bands of the Gospel rock tradition.
While friendly rivals and more importantly, longtime friends, the members of both Whitecross and Guardian frequently crossed paths on many worldwide tours.
"We always had mutual admiration and respect for each other so there was always a good vibe between us" states David Bach, bassist and founding member of Guardian. "We used to run into each other on the road everywhere from Germany to Costa Rica. We always said "Hey... we should do something together!"
In 2017, that dream became a reality as members of Guardian and Whitecross joined together for a rare album and tour that will featured the music of both bands in one amazing show.
"I always liked the guys in Guardian and had actually played drums with them recently at a gig in Chicago" says longtime Whitecross drummer, Michael Feighan.
"We continue to receive offers to play shows worldwide" continues Feighan, "but the guys in Whitecross who were always the most excited to still go out and play were myself and Rex Carroll, guitarist and founding member of Whitecross. "I called David Bach one day to see if Guardian was available to play a concert with Whitecross in Brazil. Dave told me that he and longtime Guardian vocalist Jamie Rowe were also the main guys in Guardian who were always ready to go out and play."
Guardian vocalist Jamie Rowe recalls the conversation. "When Dave called me and told me about the possible Brazil show with Whitecross, I said to Dave, "If it's always you, me, Rex, and Mike who want to go out and play, then maybe we should join forces and do an evening with Guardian and Whitecross. I think fans of both bands might really like seeing that!"
Adds guitarist Rex Carroll, "We were amazed by the incredibly positive response from the fans of both our bands. It's going to be a blast for Mike and I to play both Guardian and Whitecross songs with Jamie and Dave. This will be an album and a show not to miss!"
