The judges have made their tough decision in the SpiritSong Talent Competition 2016. They have selected the alternative rock group Torn in Two as the winner! Torn in Two (TNT) will perform as the opening artist on Thursday, June 23 at the SpiritSong music festival - sharing the same stage that day with Casting Crowns, Jeremy Camp, Andy Mineo and Jordan Feliz! It's not too late to get your tickets in advance to SpiritSong - a 3-day festival at Kings Island, OH. http://www.spiritsongfest.com/

In January 2014, TNT completed their first EP titled "No Turning Back" with Green Meteor Records, which was released in March of 2014. Their first full-length album titled "Identity Crisis" was released in April 2015. Their music will bring an uplifting message of strength through struggle with their unique blend of powerful songwriting, smooth harmonies, and lush string arrangements. Similar to bands like Skillet and RED, with one listen you'll hear why TNT has piled up over 40,000 followers on social media.

The name Torn in Two comes from the constant struggle we face everyday of our lives. We struggle with being strong followers of Christ, but living lives filled with sin and destruction. We are torn between the ways of the world and the ways of God.

Thank you to all the bands/artists who entered the SpiritSong talent contest, especially to the Top 5 Finalists - Safe Kept, Karen Shea, Rivers Crossing Worship and Samuel Day. You are all very talented and made the judges' decision a difficult one. Keep pressing on and keep bringing your music into the throne room of grace!

Thank you, as well, to our fantastic panel of music industry professionals who judged the contest - Madalyn Rhne of the management team for KING & COUNTRY, Camille Waggoner of Kari Jobe's management team and Sean Kelly, an talent agent with WME - William Morris Entertainment. We can't thank you enough for your time and expertise in helping us select the winner. You are invaluable in the Christian music industry.
