Covenant originally started in the fall of 2005. The original members were part of our church traveling P&W team. A few months into the traveling team, we knew we had something special. The anointing we felt was much different than what we were used to. Our calling became apparent that our music was going to be a stronger, more youth sound. So, we set out to do what God had called us to do. We sat down and tried to decide on a band name. We had chosen to make a commitment to God to give back what He had given us. Jesus already made a covenant with us, so, in return, we wanted to commit our lives, and all our gifts and talents back to him. Based on Matt. 26:28, we decided to call ourselves, Covenant. A constant reminder of our commitment to God. We knew instantly that our music would be much more than just P&W. We felt the calling to write our own original songs. Even though our music will always be worship driven, our songs were going to tell a message. We were setting out to tell the world about Jesus with the music that He had given us, with the talents and gifts He had blessed us with. December 2005, we had our first 'gig' and knew from the minute we started, that THIS is what we were called to do. Since then, our lives have completely changed. To date, more than half of the songs we play are originals. God has blessed us with the gift to write our own music, and more importantly, share His story with the world. He has given us a ministry family that is very rare and unique, and we don't take it for granted. We are very thankful to be a part of His kingdom, and to be able to share HIM with the world and bring MORE people into His kingdom. ~~~Covenant (Tammy, Phillip, Richard, Tanya & Jared)
