Jedidiah Tuyls
He had dabbled in the drug culture and was headed in the wrong direction until a philosophy class caused him to question atheist arguments. God rescued him from pursuing demonic interests; he has since honored Him with his music and in his marriage. Father of one, Jed, is excited with his new EP project, “GREY,” just released in May, and it is available for purchase at the merchandise table.
He was in a country band in 2018 and was actually nominated for 3 WAMI (Wisconsin Area Music Industry) Awards, very prestigious for local bands.
Rockin’ Psalms

The Rockin’ Psalms are made up of musicians from all over the state with a single desire to glorify God with their musical talents. Unofficially, they are the “house” band of the Cup O Joy in Green Bay in that they accept no money for their concerts but instead donate it all to the Cup O Joy. They have a great sound; take the King James Version of the Scriptures, and put them into contemporary music. They have several CDs out, with proceeds benefitting either the Cup O Joy or various military support organizations.

Jonny Diaz

Three years ago, Diaz wrote an album called Everything Is Changing because everything was, well, changing. It’s not something
he’s said to many people before, but at the time, Diaz thought it would be his last album.
He was touring around 100 days a year, starting a business with his wife, had just become a father…And beyond the busy schedule, the music industry had become more draining of life than giving. The focus was on making a product to sell rather than to fulfill a passion. Songwriting sessions were formulaic instead of inspiration-led. Diaz was feeling the industry more than
the music.
Then something happened that changed everything all over again: Jonny’s song “Breathe”– a last-minute toss as a radio single–
resonated quickly with listeners and became a hit. Suddenly it was time to reevaluate his music career all over again.
“Of course, God had to use a song about finding peace to be humble me to actually do so,” Diaz laughs. “I was burned out,
exhausted, but with “Breathe” He showed me ‘You can do this and stay grounded in the other important parts of your life. You
have a calling to do this, and there is a way you can use this gift and live that out while maintaining peace.’”

Josh Wilson
Saturday, November 13th, doors open at 5:30 pm for VIP, 6 pm general admission, and concert at 7 pm
Josh has 7 top 10 hits in Christian music, yet one wouldn’t think that a young man with a wonderful marriage, strong Christian convictions, and a career on the rise would face any obstacles. Well, not true. 2012 saw Josh facing a serious panic attack that led him to believe he was having a heart attack. Far from being a one-time event, Josh faced repeated attacks that nearly
led to the cancellation of performances. This emotional wake-up call makes up the basis for his album CARRY ME (released in 2013); Josh has often used real-life experiences to fuel his songs. Odd that the attacks happened in the same year that he was given the CHRISTIAN SONGWRITER/ARTIST OF THE YEAR from ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers), but he has learned to take it all in stride. His last 2 albums have been top 5 rated in Christian music and fresh off of top 10 hits, REVOLUTIONARY Josh’s next single UNDENIABLE is climbing the charts and promises to be another hit for him.
