Shortly afterward, we just really liked them [BEC Recordings], and what they were doing in the industry.

They seemed to really know what to do with a rock and roll band. We had played with a lot of those bands, Kutless in particular. Just having the chance, before we were on the label, to see the ministry mindset behind Kutless, and also seeing that spill over into BEC. They are just incredible people. To get to be a part of that family has just been awesome.

Anyways, I kind of got off track, but after the showcase we talked to a bunch of different labels. We ended up picking them [BEC Recordings], and that is kind of how it happened. They picked us; we picked them. Mikey Howard: Man, it was absolutely awesome. Our day was probably a little more unique than others. I think our families for all these years had enabled us to have our ministry.

They have enabled us to do what we were doing. I think our families kind of felt like they were passing the torch to BEC. Now, BEC was going to be the one that enabled us to do our ministry on a much bigger level. Naturally, all of our families, my wife and my little girl, came. Our parents came, and we just took a big entourage down to the office there.

We signed the paperwork and took pictures. It was incredible. It was an emotional day. Just feeling like years ago God had put this in our hearts to do this on a national level, and then [we] had struggles over the eight years of touring. Was this God telling me to do this? Was I dreaming? Was I making it up? He keeps his promises to his people.

Are there any other bands past or present on BEC Recordings or Tooth and Nail Records that you guys really look up to or draw influence from? They are just a big sounding band. We are not the same melodically. But, musically I just really like the way their records sound, and how bold their cds sound. I really draw from them. Vocally, for me Jeremy Camp is a huge one.

In high school, I used to drive around blasting his records and singing them at the top of my lungs. He really helped with little things like the diction that I have, and the way that I say certain words. He was a big influence for me personally. Obviously, Kutless is a 7eventh time down biography samples one. We definitely draw a lot from their past records.

That music is kind of what we grew up on, so it was just natural that we would draw from that. Mikey Howard: It was awesome. We worked with a really cool director named Austin Upchurch. He is another Kentucky boy; he is from Somerset, Ky. He did a fabulous job. That was really my first rodeo with a music video. I had never attempted to do something like that before.

I probably got up around that morning. It literally went all day long. There were green screens, lighting and cameras; it was just absolutely unbelievable. I felt like if I touched it, it would break because it was so expensive. It was just awesome having all those people there working hard to get the right shot. You would literally spend like hours setting up lighting, and shooting this big, long scene.

Then, it would be all for four seconds in the music video. It was really cool to see how it all came together. I kind of knew when we shot the video that at the end I was going to turn to dust. Webb: I want to talk about your band name for a minute. Why did you guys decide to put the number seven in your name? Mikey Howard: Just to be different.

There are not too many people who spell with numbers. It just kind of seemed like a cool thing to do. The seven is kind of that iconic thing for a band, and it just made sense. For us, we just liked it. Webb: Yeah, it definitely makes it stand out. When it is beside a bunch of different band names, that seven really pops out. For us, it was just trying to separate ourselves.

We have had that name since we started the band. We have gained a lot of traction with the name. Webb: Thinking about touring for a minute, how do you guys balance having family lives at home, and all the responsibilities that come along with being a full time Christian band? Mikey Howard: Man, that is the toughest part. Just like I was telling you a minute ago, when I first called you, I was literally driving my daughter to the babysitter.

It is just tough, but I guess it is no different from what other people experience. I am a dad, and dads go to work. That is what you do. Unfortunately, my work keeps me away for longer periods of time. You have to make sure that you are on your phone with your wife everyday. Make sure you are praying together, and talking about scripture together.

It makes you want to be more open. You share all of your thoughts, and you really have to talk more. You almost have to communicate more than people who see each other everyday. So, that part is pretty cool. It seems like there are fewer distractions when I am home. For the most part, when I am home, we eat together and pray together. It is just a little different, and you learn to adjust.

You have to have a wife that absolutely rocks, and mine does.
