Today's post focuses on our favorite bass player (and yours!)...Brandon Clendenin!
Brandon is a thirty year old husband to Audrey and father of 2 girls- Callie (2) and Reagan (birth coming VERY soon!). Born and raised in Greensboro, NC, Brandon currently has a strange addiction to Wheat Thins and aversion to the cello. This right-handed man loves visiting Aruba and Chicago (in the summer) and listening to the Robbie Seay Band and Incubus.
Here is more about Brandon in his own words...
How did you start playing with GRD? I began attending the Shout evening service at FLC about 5 years ago when Luke and Emily invited my wife and I to visit the church. We fell in love with the connection we felt at FLC. Shortly after, Chad and Luke asked if I would be willing to play the bass at the Shout service. It was a good fit and we all played very well together. A couple of years later we were all at an FLC retreat. We were jamming one evening in an upstairs fellowship hall and came up with the idea to start writing our own original music. We have been writing and playing together ever since.
Why do you love playing with GRD? I felt a further calling to take the chemistry we already had together as musicians and utilize our talents by spreading God's word.
Any Hobbies (other than GRD)? What else is there besides GRD??!!
Most interesting place you have ever visited: McIver Education Center. I have never been to a more humbling and gratifying place. The kids are wonderful and the memories hold a special place in my heart.
What do you want to be when you grow up? A better man
What inspires you? The love and patience of my wife
Most embarrassing moment? In retrospect...The way I proposed to my wife. Classy!
Proudest Moment? The birth of my daughters
Favorite GRD song at the moment? Grace Reigns Down
What makes you smile? My girls...and pumpkin pie...but mainly my girls...and when the Tarheels / Panthers win
