DecembeRadio is a Christian "southern rock" band from Virginia. Their eponymous national debut won the 2007 Dove Award for "Rock Album of the Year".^[1]

Background

The band grew out of two praise and worship music teams. One was lead by Brian Bunn and Josh Reedy.^[2] They began accompanying evangelist Billy Wayne Arrington on the road, and met Erik Miker in 2001.^[2] Miker and his youth pastor, Kevin Nuzum, lead a worship team at the First Baptist Church in Shinnston, West Virginia.^[3] Arrington is also credited with introducing the group to their drummer, Boone Daughdrill, and to Scotty Wilbanks, the producer of their first album.^[2]

Brian Bunn was the original lead singer of the group. He sang lead until having voice problems, leaving him unable to reach the higher notes. Josh Reedy took over shortly thereafter.

Drummer Boone Daughdrill filled in for other music groups including Jump 5, and even filled in once for Andy Williams of Casting Crowns while his wife was having their baby.
