I’ve been watching the band Abandon for about a year and I’ve been pretty impressed with their stuff. Not only are they good song writers, but they’ve got lyrics that you really don’t hear too often from a young Christian band. I guess I’m always a little weary of young Christian bands being great musically, but lacking lyrically, yet Abandon seems to do both very well. I strongly suggest listening to the song “All Because of You” (click to play) which really reveals what this band is really about.

They’re first full-length album titled “Searchlights” drops today and I recommend you take a listen and support these guys. I own their two previous EPs and I often find myself coming back to them. You can buy their new album from Amazon.com by clicking here.

You can also find Abandon Twitter, MySpace, and Facebook.
