Unspoke will perform at INFUSE III, January 14-17, 2011.
Unspoken
Unspoken was formed when Chad Mattson felt God calling him to visit the Dominican Republic in February 2003. He went there to stay with some missionaries and seek the will of God for his life. While he was there, Chad met Michael Gomez, a guitarist who had recently given his life and talents over to God. Chad and Mike began writing songs together and within a month they had recorded the Bigger Picture cd, along with their friend Junior Ambioris. They participated in a talent search in Nashville, Tennessee two months later, where they placed 5th overall. In May 2003, Michael moved to Blue Hill, Maine to stay with Chad’s family. They began working toward their dream of becoming a full-time traveling band.
Jon Lowry, having grown up with Chad in Maine soon joined the band full time, having played with them part time through college. A year later they met Yamil Conga at a concert. A few months later Yamil began playing percussion with the band full-time. Unspoken hooked up with Ariel Munoz, whom they had met back in Nashville when they had placed 5th in the talent contest. Ryan Babin joined the group in the spring of 2006 as the new keyboard player. Not only did he bring the band to an even six members, but he also evened out the ranks, making 3 Mainers and 3 Latinos.
Unspoken has recently joined forces with a new management deal with the owners of Indie Heaven, and are still playing around 15-20 times a month. These guys love music, and they love Jesus even more.
“Unspoken is not a worship band, but we are a band who loves to worship. Our belief is that as we seek to know the fullness of Christ personally, worship is freely and passionately given. There are many areas in our lives in which we worship Jesus and ultimately it comes down to showing our love for Him daily, through out obedience to His Spirit and His Unfailing Word. We love to say that there is no better place than to be in God’s house, with God’s people, praising God. It is an honor for us to be used by God, to lead His people into His presence through song. We are very sensitive to the leading of the Spirit, and submissive to what the Body is in need of. We are there to serve. We have an extensive song library, ranging from old hymns, to the newest contemporary songs.”
