Sanctus Real
Biography
A Christian rock group based in Ohio, Sanctus Real was formed by guitarists Matt Hammitt and Chris Rohman in 1996 while both were still tenth graders at Toledo Christian School. With Hammitt handling lead vocals, the duo added drummer Mark Graalman and bassist Steve Goodrum to round out the lineup. The group released three independent albums of power pop (All This Talk of Aliens in 1998, Message for the Masses in 1999, Nothing to Lose in 2001) before signing with Sparrow Records, leading to 2002's Say It Loud, which was produced by Pete Stewart. A five-song EP supplement to Say It Loud, entitled SVERIGEEP, appeared in 2003. The band was busy in 2004, placing songs on two Sparrow anthologies ("Beautiful Day" on In the Name of Love: Artists United for Africa and "Promised Land" on Veggie Rocks!) as well as releasing a single, "Everything About You," and a second album on Sparrow, Fight the Tide, produced by Tedd T. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide

I saw these guys when I was 15 and have been following them ever since. That was almost 8 years ago... (wow, I feel old.) They've evolved as I have, and to top it off, they're really personable and friendly to their fans. Thumbs up!

I've known these guys since before "All this Talk of Aliens". Been a while since I've seen them but they are men of incredible character along with incredible talent. I'm just surprised that there is no mention of Matt Koehler, the original bassist.

These guys truly are amazing! I have had the opportunity to see them progress over the years. First I saw them on the See Spot Rock Tour back in 2003, then at Creation in 2004, and then in 2007 in Moscow, ID in a very small personal show. And their love for Christ shows in their performances .

Good tunes, a bit poppy with a good solid crunch. Nice sounding guitars and a strong bass line.
