Parachute stories

e love so many different genres and so to find such a variety every single Parachute Festival means that we never get bored, and never go home without seeing something we love. Skillet, Manafest, Hillsong, Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, Switchfoot, Ruby Frost, Strahan, Rapture Ruckus, Parachute Band - the list goes on and on. What Parachute has birthed in my children, is an understanding that a lyric makes all the difference! My son has developed a strong taste for screamo. I confess I don’t mind a bit myself. Parachute has changed our musical culture, in that, regardless of our taste in musical genre, there are now artists out there who will support our Christian beliefs. The lyric and heart of a song is so important, and to know and understand that the heart of an artist is turned towards God’s heart, allows me the confidence as a parent to know that this music may also be used to turn the hearts of us and many others to God also.”
