The Lesser Known.

Shameless plug for some lesser known bands.

Caedmon's Call. - especially their later stuff is just really encouraging. My girlfriend bought me "In the Company of Angels II" (2006) for my birthday, a really uplifting new album from the guys. They are really Christ focused and reasonably mellow too. Go to a christian bookshop and have a listen.

Andrew Peterson - I still struggle to understand why this guy has not found a bigger following in Australia. His music is so uplifting, heartfelt and biblical. Go to his website. "Love and Thunder" is my favorite album so far. I'm slowly getting more people into his music.

Keith Green - He died nearly 25 years ago, but the raw passion and his strong desire for personal holyness is still a real challenge. I have all his sheet music and love to play it on guitar.
