∙ He played in several punk bands before a conversion to Christianity convinced him that he should be writing introspective, acoustic-oriented songs.
∙ In 2005, he cofounded Small Voice Records, which has released all of his albums since 2006’s Over Oceans.
∙ Christianity Today named Love & War & The Sea In Between its 2011 Album of the Year.
∙ Garrels starred in 2013’s The Sea in Between, a full-length documentary film about his life and music.
∙ 2015’s Home is his highest-charting album, reaching No. 83 on the Billboard 200.
