What a talented band! We The Kingdom consists of multiple generations of relatives, and the band's name comes from the idea that "the kingdom of God is here among us." The band has shared about their song ‘Don't Let The Darkness’ and what it meant to record it together.
“‘Don’t Let the Darkness’ was a lot of fun to record! We focused on the simplicity of being a band, the four of us, making music with our instruments. It was written during a time when we as a band needed to be reminded that hope hasn’t gone anywhere,” We The Kingdom shared. “If you’re walking through a difficult season, this song is for you - hang in there, because the light always breaks through the darkness!”
What a great song with a wonderful message. One that reminds us that hope and God's light persist even when things feel heavy. ‘Don’t Let the Darkness’ is part of We The Kingdom’s album titled Dear Jesus. The songs on this album are deeply personal, rooted in faith, and build on the honest storytelling and musicianship that have defined We The Kingdom since their 2018 debut.
“After spending two years recording, it’s beautiful when you can tell the story of reality,” the band shares. “This record is a culmination of the beauty that came from freedom: no themes or motives, but truly authentic.”
