Although he kit and boodle knocked out of the thematically conservative contemporary Christian pop genre, singer/songwriter and guitar player Derek Webb has an agitator's soul and a flair for the controversial, approaches he uses in his music to force careful thought on vitally authoritative issues. Born on May 27, 1974, in Memphis, TN, Webb attended high school in Texas, and was unrivalled of the founding members of the Houston-based Christian pop mathematical group Caedmon's Call when they formed in 1993, and he remained with the mathematical group through several albums earlier departure to go solo in 2003. His low gear solo jut, She Must and Shall Go Free, released that same year, demonstrated Webb's refreshingly maverick and uncompromising approach to Christian music, and the album john Drew a circumstances of critical care, both pro and yard bird. A sophomore cause, I See Things Upside Down, followed in 2004, along with a bouncy album, The House Show. The impressive Mocker surfaced in 2005, along with the concert DVD How to Kill and Be Killed. In 2007 Webb released matching collections of some of his early songs, One Zero (Acoustic) and One Zero (Remix), along with a highly anticipated fourth studio project called The Ringing Bell. Married to young man singer/songwriter Sandra McCracken, Webb presently makes his home in Nashville.
