About Me

We offer a brand of Contemporary Christian / Catholic, Pop / Rock, Praise & Worship music that takes you on an emotional journey ending in the joy and hope of eternal life with Jesus.
What do you get when you mix together a cup of Amy Grant, a tablespoon of the Beatles, a pinch of the Bangles, and a whole lot of love for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ? ServantSong, of course! ServantSong offers a brand of Contemporary Christian/Catholic, Pop/Rock, Praise & Worship music that takes you on an emotional journey ending in the joy and hope of eternal life with Jesus.
Band leader, Dave Gawron, handles songwriting, keyboards, rhythm guitar, and vocals for the band. To make a long story short, he was not religious at all his whole life. God "knocked him off his horse" in 1995, and he went to the Franciscan University of Steubenville, where he became a music minister. He ended up writing several songs, got a band together in 2003, and recorded the GLORY BE album in 2006. Now, about the music...
Dave says, "I fell in love with Christ in 1995. The purpose of my music is to help others love Him more. Music is a powerful, emotional tool, so I use 80's pop and 90's rock styilings (as a teen in the 80's, those genres were big influences) to draw people to our Savior." He likes getting people in a good mood, feeling good about their faith, and his music reflects that. Some of his songs grow out of prayers and bible verses, others come from the experience of his own personal faith journey.

"The debut CD by ServantSong is Glory Be, a strong effort for a first-time recording. ... Songwriter Dave Gawron has put together some solid songs, many of which seem like they would be very singable for group worship, especially the first two songs on the CD, Unchanging, and the title track, Glory Be ... heartfelt, sincere and passionate" Jim Papandrea
Grapevine Magazine

"I picked up the Glory Be CD at ServantSong's release party recently. They are awesome to see live, but it's nice to have the CD around to listen to their music whenever. Dave Gawron is an amazing and very talented songwriter. Grab a CD. You'll be dancing and singing along in no time!" Liz Rondeau
