The Huntingtons
The Huntingtons debut album "Sweet Sixteen" was released in 1996 by Flying Tart Records. A few months later, their first attempt at recording Ramones covers, entitled "Rocket to Ramonia" saw limited release via the Burnt Toast Vinyl label. At this point the band added a second guitarist, Tom Rehbein (later in Small Towns Burn a Little Slower). After working with producer Mass Giorgini for the band's next album, "Fun and Games", Tom was replaced by Brad Ber. After the album's release in mid-1997, the band started touring and gained a cult following. Their big break came in 1998, when they signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released "High School Rock".
Jason Champion
His music career got started in 1992, with the band Men at Large, however he left the group in 2007 because he experienced the conviction of Jesus Christ upon his life through a comment made by his fellow band member. This eventually lead him to sign with EMI CMG, which was a division of Sony Music Entertainment at that time in 2008. His first and only album to date, "Reflections", released on May 27, 2008, and it charted on the "Billboard" Gospel Albums chart at No. 23. The release was nominated for a Grammy Award at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards in the category for Best Contemporary R&B Gospel Album. Charity Stafford, reviewed the album at AllMusic, referring to the songs as "subtle but unmistakable declarations of faith". Melody Charles, indicating in a review from Soul Tracks, realizes, ""Reflections" will put pep in your step on the way to Church on Sunday morning and could very well keep your spirits up throughout the rest of the week." John Fisher, rated the album a seven out of ten for Cross Rhythms, recognizes, "On the whole not a bad effort to kick start his EMI recording career though there doesn't appear to be a smash hit song here." The album was produced by Warryn Campbell of The Soul Seekers.
