"The Forgiven" is a very experienced Contemporary Christian band based
in the Marietta, GA area. With years of playing and performance
experience, including studio work, the band partners with Contemporary
Christian worship leaders across the Southeast to create high quality
worship experiences. With hundreds of woship songs already in our
repertoire. We are always interested in talking
with worship leaders that need the services of a road tested rhythm section.

The band is also open to opportunities to work with other musicians in
secular venues. For example, "The Forgiven" works as part of the core
rhythm section in the band Blues 4 You, a 15 piece showband dedicated to
the music of the Blues Brothers and the classic years of Chicago (www.blues4youlive.com)

Each member of The Forgiven is experienced in muliple styles of music
ranging from Classic Rock to Jazz to Orchestral. Each musician has the
ability to read charts, leadsheets, and just about anything else which
enables us to adapt quickly to any artist and style of music.

We are always looking for musicians to round out our touring roster. Acoustic guitar and a keyboard
players are desired above most others. Vocal
abilities are mandatory.

We are always looking for gig opportunities so be sure to contact us for
more information.
