(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Oct. 31, 2007—Female-fronted rock band Inhabited finds a new home at burgeoning indie label 7 Spin Music. The group is putting the finishing touches on its sophomore release, LOVE, releasing through 7 Spin Music on Feb. 26.

Comprising Sara Acker (vocals), Marcus Acker (guitar), and Charlie Harper (drums), Houston-based Inhabited exploded onto the Christian music scene four years ago with its independent project Innerview. The band set a whole new standard for indie success, claiming a Top 20 Christian Hit Radio single with “Rescue Me.” The song also made Christian Rock radio’s Top 10.

Inhabited released its debut label project, The Revolution, with Fervent Records in 2005. Revolution earned rave reviews from media who hailed frontwoman Sara’s strong vocals, formidable stage presence and genuine heart for youth. The group steadily grew its loyal fan base, while touring alongside popular artists Todd Agnew, Starfield, By The Tree and Jonah33. Today Inhabited continues to re-invent itself, always on the cutting edge of sound and style.

Peter Khosla, president of 7 Spin Music comments, “The quality that most impressed me about Inhabited is its sincere desire to impact youth. The group is also musically talented and works extremely hard at its ministry. The band is an excellent fit with what we’re trying to cultivate here at 7 Spin.”

“We are so happy to be at 7 Spin and are excited that they aren’t afraid to be bold and think outside the box,” says Sara Acker. “They have already been a blessing, and I’m stoked we’re teaming together to get LOVE to the masses!”

Inhabited’s national sophomore project, LOVE, will be produced by industry veteran Monroe Jones (Jackson Browne, David Crosby, Third Day). In stores Feb. 26, the album’s first radio single, “Hush,” written and produced by Marcus and Sara Acker, is currently at No. 22 on Christian Hit Radio. Additional details on the record are forthcoming.

Inhabited is also on the SHOUTfest tour this fall. For an updated tour itinerary or for more information on the band, visit: www.inhabitedtheband.com.

Thanks for the info. At first, checking out their site, the song Hush made me worried they were trying to be a cleaner version of Fergie...but, going to their myspace, listened to other songs and it sounds like they are retaining their sound.

I have their Open My Eyes download and like that song alot.

I want to hear more of this before I plunk down the $$$. That "Hush" song just was not my thing at all. I hope there aren't more songs like that on the new CD. If there are, then I'm not getting this.

Ok, I listened to the Hush song on their myspace site, and it is waaaaayyyy too pop for me. I'll check out the other songs, but as of now if looks like I will probably pass.

Not really my style but everytime I hear that "hush" song (my local christian station plays it constantly) I keep thinking, has Gwen Stefani gotten saved and if so "Hollaback". I too shall pass this up
