- Seventh Annual Facedown Fest
All right, so I’m the first to admit that I’m neither an ardent fan of hardcore/metalcore bands nor a listener of most Christian music (a touchy topic, I know).

She brings this eclectic background to her live performances, challenging herself to push her own boundaries in order to deliver a better show each time. - Bonnaroo 2007 | Lineup Announcement on Feb. 14
