The Afters

Writing and producing music from the relatable realities of human experience has long been a specialty of award-winning band, The Afters. Their deep catalog of songs connects people to one another, putting words to both the answered and unanswered prayers of the heart. Their new single, God Is With Us, addresses a hard question that most people ask at some point in their lives: ‘Where is God in this situation?’ Putting words to the moments when we can’t see, feel, or fully understand God comes not only from their personal stories but from the hope that can be found in God’s promise, that He will never leave us. Lead singer, Josh Havens recalls, “Through all the years that we’ve toured as a band, we’ve heard people share their stories of brokenness and loss, and one question that we’ve heard again and again is ‘Where is God in this story?’ I believe that God isn’t afraid of our questions. Our loss, our hurt, the hard things we go through…those things are precious to God. And he has promised to be with us in every single moment of our life. He’s not going to leave us, he will never forsake us, and that’s where we can find the hope we need during our hardest times.” After six albums, numerous hit singles including “Light Up The Sky”, “Well Done”, “Moments Like This”, and extensive touring including vast global outreach with the Billy Graham Evangelical Association, the band has developed a robust domestic and international audience, with over 1 billion career streams. They have also experienced great success at CCM radio with 9 singles in the top 15 over their career including 6 #1’s. With multiple GMA Dove award wins and song placements on shows like “Dancing With The Stars,” “American Ninja Warrior,” “Fox Sports,” and “American Idol”, it’s the band’s ability to write the perfect blend of positive, hopeful lyrics with catchy melodies that keeps listeners across the world engaged song after song. Their new single, God Is With Us, provides an anthem of faith and hope for believers in the moments that seem hopeless.
