Big Daddy Weave, a five-member band, will perform at 6 p.m. Sunday at the Marietta High School auditorium.
Big Daddy Weave is a group of five guys who came together about a decade ago at the University of Mobile in Alabama to serve a higher purpose and share a message through music. This Sunday, the group will share that message of Christian love with an audience when they bring their “We Want the World to Hear” tour to the Marietta High School auditorium. The contemporary Christian rock band consists of brothers Mike and Jay Weaver, Jeremy Redmon, Jeff Jones and Joe Shirk. With songs like “Every Time I Breathe,” “Audience of One,” “In Christ,” “Fields of Grace,” “Without You” and “What Life Would Be Like” the Dove Award-nominated group has gained recognition and critical praise in the Christian music genre. “Their songs are full of grace and (lead singer Mike Weaver) just glows on stage,” said Tim Smith, whose Reno-based company Dunamis Concerts, is promoting the event.
