All Things New

The band All Things New reminds us of how God can make beauty from ashes with their song, “New Man,” inspired by Isaiah 61:3. “It doesn’t matter what you or I have been through,” lead singer Garrett Hornbuckle says. “In Christ you are worthy and you are whole.” 

Consisting of Garrett Hornbuckle (Vocals), Jeff Stein (Guitars), Luke Wycuff  (Drums), and Josh Shou (Bass/Guitars), the band hails from Florida and first came together during their mid-teen years. The group was named after 2 Corinthians 5:17, “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come.” 

Coming from rough backgrounds, the boys were bonded by their broken homes, broken hearts and struggling views of faith. For their debut self titled album (April 9th 2013), the group pulled from the pain of their past to write music together. “My entire life was centered around myself. I used to wake up and think: ‘Who might have something that I want today?’” Joshua explains. “It’s so powerful to know that as a Christian we have Jesus inside us, and we will do greater things because of it. I know now my life is not my own. I want my life to be devoted to Christ and serving others. That’s what makes being in All Things New such a blessing.” 

“God has ingrained in us a love for Him,” adds Luke. “Everyone has that even if they don’t realize it yet. When the weight of the world gets to you, it’s that spark that brings you back.”

The band strive to inspire listeners with their music, candidly and openly wearing their “hearts on their sleeves,” with all of their songs.“I feel like these are songs that people need right now. They carry the message of redemption and freedom in Christ who came and died for us while we were still sinners. All Things New is just so eager to share that hope,” says Garrett.“It turned into something special, and I had always wanted to be in a band that got a record deal, so I started to be the driving force toward that goal,” he explains.
