About Me


His college aptitude test was probably more on target than originally thought. Pocket Full of Rocks lead vocalist Michael Farrens results said that he was best suited to work as a circus manager. Subtract the clowns, three rings and elephants, there are days that leading Pocket Full of Rocks might actually feel like one. Ultimately, its a circus united and drawn together and completely centered on bringing songs of worship to communities of believers that seek more from God.
In 1995, Farren and drummer David Rollins started Pocket Full of Rocks to lead worship in their local church in. As time passed, the band branched out to colleges and churches in Texas and Arkansas. Later on teaming up with different organizations, Pocket Full of Rocks began to crisscross the country from Washington, D.C., to California, leading worship at multi-day youth conferences and retreats.
Comprised of Farren, his wife Alisa (vocals), Rollins, Jody Crump (bass), Ryan Riggins (electric guitar). Pocket Full of Rocks owes its name to a song from its early days. We wrote a song called Pocket Full of Rocks, played it in a youth meeting and became known as the Pocket Full of Rocks band, remembers Michael. Deeper meaning is held in the story of David before he was ever a great king, he was simply a boy with a pocket full of rocks, believing God would do something great using any of the small things he himself could offer.
