band in Europe.

All Sons And Daughters’ Spend
their time serving the Lord with
all their heart. Their fourth fulllength album, Poets &Saints (Integrity Music), along with a companion book penned by Jamie
George, curriculum and a study
guide (David C Cook,) will take
you on a epic journey into the
lives and stories of a handful of
Christ-followers used to wake up
the world.

What was the
motivation
behind
choosing
that name?
DAVID: We wanted a name that
reflected who we
are and also as a
part of the Church.

Who came up with the name
of the band?
LESLIE: David did… when we
first began discussions with our
label, Integrity Music, we didn’t
have a band name. David and
I had been writing/leading together at our church, Journey,
in Franklin, Tennessee. But we
weren’t thinking “oh, we’re a
band and we need a name.” :)
So, on the way to meet with the
label, we talked through options
and David suggested Sons &
Daughters. We had to add “All”
later to distinguish us from a

Did love for the
Lord have anything to do with
why the band
originally
began?
DAVID: Absolutely! For my part, I
had been traveling
with a band and
out on the road for
a while and I was missing being at home with my wife and
our church family. I wanted to be
rooted, to serve our church and
write songs for that community.
When our pastor introduced me
to Leslie, who was leading worship for the church, we started

writing together and realized
we shared a heart for serving
churches and for writing songs
that are transparent… we wanted to write honest songs that
reflect the ups and downs of following Jesus, all while staying
focused on Him.
