Every once in a while, you come across a group of people who refuse to let things stay the way they are. Fueled by a passion for what they believe, they cannot sit by and watch culture consistently walk down the wrong path — they are mobilized to action. Without these people, society would never change.
Enter Unhindered, a Christian worship band cased out of Atlanta, GA. More than just a group of musicians playing together, Unhindered is a community that is dedicated to tirelessly laboring to lead people to God. A band that has been forming since some of its’ members were in high school, Unhindered released their first CD (City Streets. independent) in Fall of 2005 and have since sold over 10,000 copies.
Led by front men Ben Smith and Patrick Barrett, Unhindered’s unique ability to engage worshippers across age as well as cultural barriers has brought the group in front of churches and conferences nationwide.
With a passionate heart for engaging students in worship, the band now travels across the United States declaring that not only does God want to be involved in students’ lives while they are at church, but He also desires to play play a huge part in their every day activities and decisions. “The same God that you sing to now, in church,” says Patrick (Pat), “wants to play a part in every decision you make tomorrow at school, with your friends, at your job, wherever you are, in everything that you do.” Leading over 8,000 people at their first international event in Ontario, Canada in the Fall of 2006, the band is excited and humbled by their quickly growing platform for ministry.
Unhindered consists of Ben Smith (Keyboards/Vocals), Patrick Barrett (Guitars/Vocals), Christian Paschall (Drums/Programming), J.R. Collins (Bass/BGV), and Ashley Dasher (Guitars).
