Audiofeed is nearly upon us. We’re proud to once again be part of the action, but we certainly it can be overwhelming for to decide exactly who to see. Whether you’re one of the few who scraped up the early birds tickets or are still on the fence about even attending, we hope this list will give you some ideas of artists you won’t want to miss. Keep in mind this is solely our opinion – and we don’t yet know what the final schedule looks like, so we can’t guarantee there won’t be conflicts with when these artists end up performing. With that said, let’s dive in.

Reunions and Rarities

Blaster the Rocket Man

This band is one of the most-talked about acts this year, but chances are you might have never heard of them. This 90s Christian punk band included themes of horror in their lyrics, culminating in an album titled The Monster Who Ate Jesus. The band’s quirky antics might not be for everyone, but they’ve certainly earned a cult following and fans of the likes of the Dead Kennedys will quite enjoy this group’s sound. Even if punk isn’t your thing, this is a pretty historic reunion of over two decades and you can be part of this historic event.

Gileah Taylor

Maybe it’s not possible for a solo artist to break up, but Floridian songstress Gileah Taylor has had a couple quiet years and many folks are excited to see her make her return to Audiofeed. I had the recent pleasure of catching her play a house show, and her soft vocal delivery and left-field guitar playing definitely made an immediate impression. If you’re looking for something that won’t make you lose your hearing, Gileah’s pensive songs might be perfect for you.

Bloodlined Calligraphy

Here’s another band that’s been quiet going on twenty years. Bloodlined Calligraphy left their mark during the halcyon days of Facedown Records, and they’re back to break the silence with their fast-and-dirty metalcore sound.

The Myriad

If you’re looking for something with a little less energy, The Myriad is a good middle ground between the extremes of metal and folk. Fans of MAE, Deas Vail, Switchfoot, or Coldplay will likely enjoy this band’s smooth take on alternative rock and emo.

Must-See Debuts

Sower

Cincy-based Biblical Indie Rock project Sower is set to hit the stage for one of its first full-band live shows ever. This follows two breakout EPs in 2024 and their forthcoming LP, I Want to See Clearly. If you’re a fan of bands like Thrice and Emery but wish they’d be a bit more on the nose about the truths of the Gospel, you will not want to miss Sower. Each song is carefully crafted with meticulous Bible reference. But would you expect anything else from a band who calls themselves Biblical Indie Rock?

The Jonah Project

Unsurprisingly, this group began with writing songs around the themes of the book of Jonah. To this date, they’ve expanded their catalogue, delving into the Psalms and beyond. If Sower sounds interesting to you, you’ll probably also want to tack The Jonah Project onto your schedule as well.

Jonathan Allen Wright

Long before Jonathan Allen Wright saw success from his YouTube episodes, I had reviewed his album and described his song “Reality Check” as Christian-meets-80s-workout. While his whole catalog is more diverse than this, and his larger commentary on the Christian music scene at large is fascinating, I can appreciate an artist who isn’t afraid to be a little goofy.

Twenty Something Summer

This new project is about to make their debut at Audiofeed. What do they sound like? We’ll never tell, but you will not want to miss this debut.

Festival Cornerstones

Kevin Schlereth

We know it might make him blush putting him on the list, but who could possibly forget our blue-hatted, red-shorted perma-touring friend who happens to be one of the primary organizers of Audiofeed itself? Kevin is working on a new album about rest, and, having heard many of the songs live, I’ll attest that they overflow with with challenging truths about the sin of our self-dependence and the glorious rest of Christ. For those less familiar, don’t expect a typical singer-songwriter vibe. Kevin’s songs feel closer to Midwest emo and he manages to make his songs sound full with just a guitar and his voice.

Boha Tribe

This eclectic collective mixes bluegrass, psychedelic, and world music influences with Christian influences for a result that feels like a big tent revival of sorts.

Destroy Nate Allen

Nate Allen has taken part in a variety of projects to the point that, while he might not be in the mainstream, you’re bound to bump into references to him within the world of indie Christian music. He’s back yet again, so if you’re trying to get a sense of what the community around this festival is like, you won’t want to miss an opportunity to connect with
