The Lasting Hope, a Christian pop-rock band out of Southern Indiana, has a high energy pop-rock sound that gets audiences on their feet and singing along. The band is uniquely formed by five young and very talented men who have a heart completely sold out to worship. Formed in 2010, the band has gone through some directional as well as member adjustments, but the final result has been a hard core worship experience that audiences of all ages are positively reacting to. Their first album, Closer than Before, released in 2011, was a hit with the fans. The uplifting lyrics and jamming sound really gave a glimpse into the hearts of these young men and captured their musical talent. The Lasting Hope began recording their second studio album, Sunsets and Second Chances, an EP, in the Fall of 2013 with Nashville based producer Mark Lee Townsend (Relient K, Owl City, House of Heroes, Run Kid Run). This EP is due to be released in May. The Lasting Hope truly has a heart for ministry and has lead worship and excited young crowds at many local churches, camps, and youth rallies. “We are more than just a band, we are a ministry. Our goal isn’t to change the world, but to be THE change in the world.”
