Vertical Church Band is a team of worship leaders serving Chicago's multi-site Harvest Bible Chapel-among the largest, fastest-growing churches in the United States. Andi Rozier, Meredith Andrews, Seth McConkey, Jon Guerra, Kyle Fredricks and Tara Rios, along with other church musicians, craft songs with one intention: to invite their local community and a multiplying national audience to arrive at a place that is vertical -eyes on the Lord. That goal is surely reached on the collective's second album, The Rock Won't Move (out October 29). Written by the Harvest worship leaders and recorded live in Chicago, The Rock Won't Move echoes the spirit of Harvest's 13,000+ member church, spread across 7 campuses. The project centralizes on the theme of the Lord's reliability weaved throughout each new composition. Key songs include a powerful declaration of an unshakable God on the title track "The Rock Won't Move," an infectious celebration of freedom in Christ on "I'm Going Free (Jailbreak)" and a reverent standout moment on "Worthy, Worthy" featuring Meredith Andrews. After its first album, Live Worship From Vertical Church (7/31/12), released with debut success and strong touring -- including a 40-city tour with Pastor James McDonald and leading at major worship conferences around the U.S., Vertical Church Band continues to hone in on bringing their inspiring music and message to new audiences. Plans surrounding The Rock Won't Move this fall include leading at the "Act Like Men" Conferences w/ James MacDonald, Mark Driscoll, Matt Chandler, Greg Laurie and LeCrae, and joining a fall 2013 tour run with Matt Maher. In early 2014 they will be featured on "The Roadshow" Tour, while continuing to lead worship at their various campuses each week.
