Seeds

Bio

Seeds was a folk rock group that sprang up out of the intentional Christian community Jesus People USA in Chicago in 1995. They drew inspiration from their musical forebears that arose during the Jesus Movement of the early 1970s like John Michael and Terry Talbot, Larry Norman, Phil Keaggy, Malcolm and Alwyn, Love Song, The All-Saved Freak Band – not to mention JPUSA's own Resurrection Band. The band toured mostly in the American midwest during their ten years together, but also went to the mountain states, east coast, south and even did one 3-week tour in Israel in 2005. After their disbanding, they reunited briefly in 2006 to perform shows in the Czech Republic.

The original members were Shelly (Aracely) Bock (vox, guitar), Mike Troxel (vox, guitar), Scott Knies (vox, guitars), and Colleen Davick (vox, flute). Their first show was performed under the moniker Shelly Bock and Friends. After encouraging feedback from one of their pastors, Glenn Kaiser, they were off and running. Bassist and songwriter Greg Vaught stepped in soon after and was with the band through the recording of their first album in 1997. They were all multi-instrumentalists, which was evident in their live performances. Subsequent members were Tom Crozier (bass 1997-2005), Kristin Troxel (vocals 2001-2005), Bryce Jacobson (drums ~2001-2003), and Chris Sheppard (drums ~2003-2005). Shelly stepped out in 2001 to pursue solo music. Others who toured with the band were Ed Bialach (drums ~1999-2001) and Børre Moinichin (keys ~2004-2005).

Seeds created three full studio albums: Seeds (self-titled, 1997); Parables, Prayers and Songs (2000); and Rooted (2004). All were produced by Tom Cameron, a friend and pastor who had a long history with Resurrection Band and many other Grrr Records artists. Additionally, one bootleg concert recording from their stint in Israel, Live in Jerusalem, exists in digital form only at grrrrecords.com.
