Born in the quaint, Cape Cod town of Wareham Massachusetts, Galen found solace and purpose within music quite naturally. He would spend hours locked away in his room strumming his acoustic guitar, discovering new inspiration, his own unique style, and most importantly; the realness of God. Never being one to follow the "status quo", he discovered early on what his desire and calling was - to share the raw, unpolished truth and hope of Jesus Christ, with all who would be willing to listen. But long before this purpose could ever be achieved, Galen had to go through his own desert seasons; times of being tried, pressed, and broken.
"I always wanted to do something, to be a part of something bigger than myself. To bring change to a world that just wasn't getting it right. There were many times where I was challenged in my faith, but as difficult as it was, I believe it was all in God's perfect plan; to raise up a testimony and to show me that even when things are bleakest, and there seems to be no way out, there is always hope." We all have moments in the dark, where the light seems faint and far away. Yet, each of us must dare to believe in God and take Him at His Word - especially in the hard times. If we will just keep our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, He is faithful to bring us through to the other side.
