Last Day’s goal is to get everyone, especially young people, involved
in worshiping and praising God through music in order to experience God
in a whole new way.
The band also wants to be a positive role model for other young
musicians so they will consider using their musical talents to glorify
God instead of turning to secular music.
Last Day, formed in 2001, started out as their church’s youth-group
band but has grown to performing for and exciting audiences across the
country with an energized style that is designed to bring young people,
and those young-at-heart, closer to God. Since releasing their first
album, “Astray,” in 2005 the group has been going non-stop.
Their second album, “Happy Medium,” was released in 2006 and had
critics saying, “This album cuts through the predictability of modern
Christian music with an undoubtedly fresh rock sound and a coinciding
spiritual tenderness that shows the young members’ yearning for
something more than just great music.”
Their most recent release, “We’re Here,” is now available and is receiving great reviews.
The present lineup in Last Day consists of Matt Jackson, who plays
both acoustic and electric guitar and the band’s distinctive sound
stems from his powerful lead vocals. Then there is our rockin’ bassist,
Joe Tabeling. The newest addition to the band is John (JB) Bose, who
plays multiple instruments including trombone and harp but will be
primarily confining his talents to guitar and keyboard. Last, but
certainly not least, supplying the driving beat of the band, is our
drummer, Nathan Lubbers.
Last Day is not about putting on a concert or show; their mission
is to write and perform music that helps lift the listener’s heart,
mind and soul to God. Wherever possible, they display their lyrics so
people can worship right along with them. Their performances are a mix
of original songs that touch and challenge the audience to take a step
back and look at their lives from a different perspective, and favorite
cover songs with which everyone can sing along.
