- Vincent Laboy, Advertising Director, Fremont Tribune, Fremont, Nebraska - Fremont Tribune


"Bayless Review"

“The one thing that I really appreciate about Bayless and their music is their passion to share about difficult subjects. There were many times I came away from hearing Bayless’ songs that really touched my spirit. Many of our listeners have commented how they appreciate the uniqueness of our music compared to what other stations are playing. Bayless’ music has been a big part of this mix.”
- Jon Bowlus, Program Director, WXML Upper Sandusky, Ohio - WXML Ohio


"Bayless Review"

"Bayless is an incredibly gifted group of singers and songwriters. Our listeners have really responded well to their music. Their lyrics and delivery really help to bring you in to a worship experience. I was first introduced to Bayless through listening to their music on the internet. I was so impressed by their talent that I chose to add their
music to our playlist. In a short amount of time listeners began responding to it favorably and we moved their music into heavy rotation. I’ve encouraged other friends in radio around the country to give a listen to their music! Bayless is a group with an incredible talent and a sincere desire to honor the Lord through their music ministry."

"Bayless opens for Mark Schultz"

"Bayless has arrived. I was so impressed with their musical abilities and obvious love for God when he played for hundreds of cheering KGBI listeners at Faith and Family Night with the Omaha Royals recently. We love our brother Mark Schultz who was headlining, but would have been completely satisfied with the price of admission had the only act been
Bayless. It was a powerful day for God and His musicians."

"Bayless Press Kit"

“To honor God with our lives, using our talents and abilities He’s given us to serve Him and to lead others to Christ through them.”

Currently hailing from Wichita, Kansas, Bayless (formerly known as Jared Bayless) is becoming a rising name in Christian music today. Their blend of hard rock, acoustic, and even some hip hop have given them attention from teens to adults and their appeal is widespread and well deserved. Here is an excerpt from their bio:

“We aspire to reach those with a message that is powerful and speaks nothing but truth. With a lyrical deterioration in the musical society, we hope to provide thought-provoking lyrics which challenge your lifestyle, faith, image, and walk with God. It is the desire of our hearts to share our music with more than just those around us, but to as many as possible. These words not only came from our hearts but they were empathic emotions intended for those who are broken, deterred from truth, hopeless, and looking for the light. We want to tell other people’s stories through their eyes, sharing their lives and emotions through a whole new worldview.”

*Bayless has opened for several national artists including:
• Aaron Shust
• Mikeschair
• Mark Schultz
• Chasen

Bio

Bayless has recently become the topic of much discussion…

Most recently, Bayless teamed up with Justin Forshaw (formerly of We As Human & currently of As We Ascend) to mix their album Ready. Aim. My Declaration, hit #5 on the national charts and No More Suffering are rising up the charts as the album has since been released. Ready. Aim. was also mastered by Robert Venable (also of As We Ascend).

Their song, To War reached #10 on national radio station, ‘The Effect,’ and was voted #5 most popular song -right next to RED and Skillet. Their song, Alive also climbed into the top 30 on The Effect.

Their EP, Sabotage was produced by Jon Steingard, front man for Hawk Nelson and mixed by Grammy-nominated, Pete Stewart.

Sabotage has gained several slots on radio stations around the country, along with their album, “Within My Reach” where songs such as “Venom”, “30 Silver Coins” and “Lay Me Down” also gained radio play at multiple radio stations.

They have been blessed to share the stage with names such as Thousand Foot Krutch, Disciple, Fireflight, Building 429, Cloverton, LyBecker, and more.

Bayless was one of the previous winners of Air 1 Battle of the Bands competition in Kansas City, and privileged to play at such venues as Arrowhead Stadium and the Rock The Light Festival with several other big name artists. They were also featured in the October issue of HM magazine as the “Pick Of The Litter”.

Bayless wants to continue to reach people with the message of the music and continue to help people in all walks of life, while challenging their faith and worldview.

Why we do what we do…

First off, this is a ministry. We love and serve our savior, Jesus Christ with all our hearts. It’s our desire to share that love with others around the world. We believe one of the most effective ways to reach others is by simply listening to their stories.

Our music is inspired by these stories. Stories of addiction, loneliness, hope, loss, love, perseverance, victory… light and darkness…

We write & play our music in the hopes of others hearing, relating, and realizing they are not alone in this world. We write & play in the hopes of meeting these people and learning why they are who they are.

If even one person’s life is impacted by something we’ve written, then we’ve already succeeded as a band.

Give us 30 minutes to tell you our story, then come talk to us after and tell us yours. You are why we do what we do.
