By
Chad Bonham
Bear and Bo Rineheart’s lives could have gone a lot of different directions. Bear was a star football player at Furman University and was talented enough to pursue a career beyond his college days.

A conversation with Newsboys lead singer Michael Tait
By
Chad Bonham
Watching Michael Tait backstage before a performance with The Newsboys is a fascinating experience. The legendary front man has an infectiously charming habit of engaging nearly everyone in his path. Tait might not always look you in the eye but it’s not because he’s being aloof. On the contrary, the attention-challenged singer is usually on…

By
Chad Bonham
Sustaining an eight-year music career under the radar is quite the impressive feat these days.

By
Chad Bonham
For Shane Barnard, writing songs isn’t just about producing material for a new Shane & Shane album. In fact, that’s usually the last on his mind and in his heart. Instead, the creative process is birthed out of a desire to draw closer to God and remind himself of the gripping nature of the Gospel…
A conversation with country singer and film actor Trace Adkins
By
Chad Bonham
This entry is somewhat of a departure from the Q&A’s with Christian artists that are usually found here. That’s because Whole Notes was recently given the unique opportunity to visit a movie set during two of its final days of filming. Moms’ Night Out was just about to wrap up several weeks of shooting in…
A conversation with Hawk Nelson lead singer Jonathan Steingard
By
Chad Bonham
It doesn’t seem like nearly a decade ago when pop punk band Hawk Nelson exploded onto the scene with the instant classic Letters To The President back in 2004. But it’s true. Hawk Nelson is officially one of Christian rock’s elder statesmen. The band has undergone some changes during that time, yet its penchant for…
