Fridays are great, right?
 
ARTIST OF THE DAY
Royal Tailor




Fusing pop, rock, R&B, hip hop and worship into a distinctive musical blend, Tauren, Blake, Jarrod and D.J. deliver the Gospel in a high-energy style that drives audiences to dance, pray, shout and sing along.  After meeting in Bible college and forming the band, they spent a year working full time at their church in Granite City, IL, mentoring and teaching the youth to sing, play and take over worship services.  They refused to leave the church to tour until the worship team was prepared mentally, emotionally, spiritually and musically to take their place.

When Royal Tailor hit the road and began performing 300+ shows in less than two years, the band left behind an on-fire group of young worshippers ready to share their gifts with the church.  During that process of equipping the youth, the members of Royal Tailor also learned a lot about themselves. The guys found their hearts were broken for the younger generation and seek to use music to bring healing and hope to kids everywhere.

"The overarching message is a call to action," says Tauren. "A lot of our songs have to do with being Christ in the world.  We want to create a culture where students are doing the ministry. They are creating the ideas. They are dreaming the dream,  and then they are actually going out there and doing those things."

The Hook Up: Leeland and Jack Mooring (of the band Leeland) became fans of Royal Tailor, had them open for one of their tours and pushed their label to sign the young band.
