The Glorious Unseen began with a Sunday night Bible study… Disillusioned by the local church scene, a few former youth pastors and friends gathered on a spring Sunday night outside Nashville, TN. Not ever knowing what was going to happen, they continued to meet every Sunday night to pursue God... and to have Him pursue them. The worship that emerged from this group was simple, introspective, and vulnerable. When worship leader Ben Crist wrote his first song- he didn't consider it a worship song... I just wrote this cool song, but never thought it would be something we would play in worship. But when a few friends persuaded him to use the song during a worship set-the people were touched, and as he wrote more and more songs, the group gathered around them... The songs became their soundtrack... They became songs that brought them closer to God, and God closer to them... After signing to Tooth & Nail records, Glorious Unseen entered the studio with Steve Hindalong and Marc Byrd (Leeland, Jeremy Camp) to record his debut album Tonight the Stars Speak. - EMI
