Why Crowder?
Heart Of The Artist
That beard.
It’s amazing. Truly phenomenal. It’s the first thing you notice, and probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think of David Crowder.
But it’s hardly what makes him such a popular¸ musician among youth leaders.
He’s been doing music since he was a student at Baylor University. His work as the frontman for the David Crowder Band set the bar for thoughtful-yet-entertaining music. Now, as a progenitor of the quirky “Folktronica” style of music, he blends his quirky personality and razor-sharp intellect (and wit) into a very engaging musical experience.
Crowder maintains that although he is a public figure in the Christian community, people do not really know him entirely. “What is known of me from a public sense is just a real tiny sliver of who David Crowder is. What everybody knows as David Crowder is from when I’m on stage, but there’s a whole lot of life that happens that’s the same as everybody else,” he admitted.
“Life for me is exactly what happens for everybody else. You’re struggling trynna [sic] get through this thing, trynna follow this person Jesus, messing up constantly, failing constantly, life’s throwing all kind of things at you and trying to figure out how to stay above water during all of it,” he went on to say, “Music for me is an expresser of that journey, of that struggle, of the community that’s around me that helps me follow the person Jesus and get through life here on planet earth.”
