band
Attaboy
In a time when music industry success seems to be shifting
from complete dependency on major labels to a greater emphasis on self-propelled ingenuity, hard work, and solid talent;
Indiana-based, independent pop-rock band Attaboy is more
than a little keyed up about the next chapter of their journey.
Attaboy has been in the studio in recent months, recording “Motion Toward the Miles,” their first full-length album that
features Matt on vocals. Slated to be released on November
6, 2012, this forthcoming album will also be Attaboy’s first with
7Spin Music; but the band’s decision to release via label isn’t
a total departure from the do-it-yourself methods which have
fueled their success story thus far.
special guest
Adam Hatmaker
Adam, born and raised in Knoxville, TN, grew up in the stereotypical Southern home. This upbringing placed him in Christian education from middle school all the way into college. Knowledge
attained of the Bible and God gave him a great foundation for
life. However, Adam tended to play the game of church for most
of his youth. It was during his college years, when he found himself in Florida pursuing his lifelong dream of working with marine
mammals, that God began to change Adam’s life and passions
and he began to feel a tug toward the ministry. As he sought
out this calling, God opened up doors that led to him performing
magic as an avenue to share the Gospel of Christ. While Adam
has been intrigued by magic since his childhood, he did not fully
delve into the art form until his mid 20’s. God has generated in
him a deep passion for sharing the art in a relevant way for the
youth and college culture of today’s society. Adam aims to
perform magic that connects with this generation in a way that
gains respect, credibility, and a platform for sharing his story and
the change God has done in his life.
