The Garms Family

Tight-knit, top-notch, and the real deal. The Garms Family bands together to love on people with live music, honest stories, and God’s Word. On August 16-17, The Garms Family will appear at Voices of Peace Gospel Music Festival, a multi-group event. All are invited. Since 2008, the family has brought "Nights of Encouragement" to churches and venues across America. The Garms Family is David and Kris Garms with their sons and daughters, Ben, Taylor, Leesha, Sam, Jayme, and Caleb. None of the siblings have had instrument or vocal lessons. Family hymn sings in the living room grew into over 15 instruments, ten CDs, and full-time touring. "A Night of Encouragement" is a remarkable musical presentation. Fans of Southern Gospel, bluegrass, and inspirational love their acoustic Christian music. Guitars, piano, drums, fiddle, banjo, upright bass, dobro, and mandolin make up the core band. All members are skilled vocalists—from soprano to deep bass—and they switch leads, trios and quartets. Audiences describe the experience as “Branson, but better.” From hymns to original songs, their music tells a clear message of God’s goodness when life is hard. People attend The Garms Family’s concerts wanting good music and a fun time. Many walk away with the joy, comfort, or encouragement they needed. The family’s teamwork, harmony, and love inspire all ages, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ leaves the impact. When not on tour in their 45-foot bus “Bertie”, The Garms Family lives in Arkansaw, Wisconsin, renovating a retired school into a concert hall called The Gospel Gym, recording studio, and residence. They also host a free livestream concert series, "Sunday Nights of Encouragement", on Facebook and YouTube. Visit www.thegarmsfamily.com or join the family on social media to learn more.
