Sanctus Real

Originally formed in the late 90’s, Sanctus Real has not only survived a career that started by releasing music on shiny blue cassette tapes, but they continue to thrive in an era where now more than 4 million people a month stream their music on shiny rectangular devices.

With a career that has generated 19 top ten singles, eight #1 singles, Dove Awards and Grammy nominations the band honestly would tell you they feel like they’re just getting started.

‘Sanctus Real has crossed generations now,’ says Chris Rohman – original band member and guitarist. ‘It’s amazing that we’ve written songs over the years that people have connected with so deeply, but now we’re writing songs that are connecting to those people’s kids in a profound way too.’

One of those new songs is the breakout single Confidence, written during an extremely difficult time for the band as they looked to continue after the departure of their original lead singer.

‘Confidence has broken all kinds of barriers, not just reaching across actual geographical borders, but even in the way it gave us the confidence to form our own record label. No pun intended,’ says Rohman. Confidence was recently certified Gold by the RIAA, but there’s other songs that are connecting as well; My God Is Still the Same, Unstoppable God and Won’t Let Me Go to name a few.

In 2023 Sanctus Real will release new music they’ve eagerly been working on and writing over the last few years. The band consists of lead singer Dustin Lolli, drummer Mark Graalman, and guitarist Chris Rohman.
