Sometimes you just want to throw on some upbeat music and feel uplifted at the same time. Christian rock bands are a great way to do this. However, before you send out your baptism announcement to get your friends and family on the Christian rock band train, here are a handful of ways to find your favorite groups so you can introduce them to only the best of the best.
Pandora
Pandora is a great option as you can signup for a free account and have access to a vast music library; another great thing about Pandora is that it randomly plays music in the same genre. So the best way to get started is to find a band you like, and then Pandora will create a playlist of other similar groups. This way, you will get introduced to a bunch of other Christian rock bands you may not have heard of and then keep a list of the ones you do to create the ultimate playlist.
iTunes
If you have a paid iTunes music account, your can search through its vast library and play just the artists you like, or you can search by genre and find a bunch of different curated playlists for Christian rock, pop, etc. You will also have access to chat topping lists like hot 100 Christian rock songs etc.
Spotify
Spotify is another great platform to find great music. One thing that sets Spotify apart from other services is that you can find user-curated lists of music. This gives you the chance to find music that is liked by users just like you as well as once you have found your favorite songs you can contribute by creating your playlist and others can listen to the mix you have put together.
So if you are new to Christian rock, these three services can help open up and expand your musical horizons.
