2nd.wav (Second Wave) started quietly in the homes of two home school families. Savannah Wofford, A singer, her brother Russell, a guitar player and Noah Stephens, a keyboardist, started playing and writing songs together. A few months later, they invited two friends, Bassist Holden Fincher and Drummer Grayson Arias. The band began to gel and soon, they had a 30 minute set including a few covers and a could of original praise songs.
They made their debut at Concert in the Cul-de-Sac, the brainchild of Grayson's mom, Andi. "We put up a stage and a small PA in our cul-de-sac and invited friends and family. It was just for kicks." To everyone's amazement, around 200 people showed up and enjoyed an amazing performance including songs they wrote themselves, as well as covers of Smalltown Poets, Steve Fee, Hillsongs United, Cold Play, even Skynnard.
Since then, they have played at a school talent show, a county craft fair, the State Capitol and for 1,000 amped up high schoolers. Most recently, they led worship for a week at a church fine arts camp. They hope to record their first EP in the fall.
2nd.wav attends Northpoint Community Church and represents their student minsitry.
Vote them onto the big stage. We know they look very young for 18, but they've got the goods! Help them grow in their love of leading worship by giving them your support!

We're having a blast watching this gang grow up as a band. God's blessed them with some amazing talents and huge hearts. I can't believe we get to be their parents! Please lend them your support and send a link to your friends and family!

I love these guys! Check out their performance at the Walking Wisely Weekend back in April. Unbelievable. http://youtube.com/watch?v=H8qTz1XlhcU

What a blessing to watch these kids grow musically and especially spiritually. They are great kids! We're so proud of them! They've become really fun Worship leaders.

I like them better than bands thrice their age.

This is the best band I have ever seen. they look like they have a blast praising God. I know they have helped lead many lives to Christ. They are great to be around.

Second Wave rocks! They led worship for a camp my kids attended this summer. We were all inspired by the band's uplifting praise and worship. Very impressive talent for such a young bunch of kids! Sweet spirit and worship-full hearts, as well.

Awsome! Lord, thank you for the parents of these precious kids who are training them up in the admonition of the Lord and helping them find ways to proclaim your majesty with the powerful medium of music which can influence so many of their peers.

This is fantastic! My son-in-law is the music director of a church in Dallas. My wife and I are members at FBC Dallas. Don't be surprised if you get a call from one of our churches soon to open worship service. Keep up the great worship messages.

2nd Wave represents our next generation of music leaders. They are committed and talented and it will be great to watch and see what they accomplish in the years ahead. Here's to wishing you all God's best!

For an instant, when the video began, I thought I was hallucinating, as it's just not possible for kids that young to be that good, but since I don't do drugs, all I can say is "wow!" Amazing talent for their age. Amazing period.

WOW!! These guys are great! Hey, our church is looking for a new worship pastor. Hmmmm.... :)

BRILLIANT!

Thanks so much for your support and comments! For those who asked, this was shot at Lanier Baptist Church. 2nd.wav led worship for the week during their Fine Arts Camp VBS program last month. They had a blast and grew a lot as a band and as leaders.

Fantastic Job! Keep spreading the word, through your talents!

Great work! We look forward to your first recording.

i love 2nd wave its the best band in the whole wide world.

Keep rockin' for the Lord and keep it real! You guys got it going on! You're great!

Unbelievable, these kids are fantastic. Second wave rocks my socks!

Great group! I expect to hear alot more out of these talented young kids as they continue to serve the Lord with the talents He has blessed them with.

I would have to say by far these kid are truly blessed, it was amazing just watching these guys, and girls.. God bless keep seeking Gods will

I'm always moved to see kids worship authentically. Hang on to Jesus, You guys. He has an adventure for y'all that will blow yer minds!

Wow! These kids are amazing. They have a bright future and God is going to use them mightly.

I can't believe my eyes-- they are performing as good as 20 year olds. Wow. May God give them wisdom and direction to use their talents wisely.

It is very difficult to remain unbiased about this great Band. After all, I'm the Drummer's Grandfather. So I'll just restrain myself and say, "THEY ARE FANTASTIC". What a sense of rhythm, it must be genetic and certainly inspired by God.

Great job! Praise God!

They praise the only true GOD... That is enough to me to admire them, and because they are using their talents in the correct way. Dios les bendiga.

This 64 year old resonates with these pre-adolescents because of their talent but more importantly because of their love for God.

Great kids, great band! Stay true, 2nd.wav! We love ya!

I love then setting it looked so cool and they also sound great they should win in 1st

That was really really really really really really really good! Ya'll did a great job!

So proud of these talented kids! Awesome band! Great to see kids "rock" for Jesus and have positive influence.

Thanks, everybody, for commenting. You have no idea how great it makes me feel inside when I read all this.

You guys are sooooo amazing! Savannah, Russell, NOah, Holden, and Grayson...you guys rock!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work and you will be up at the top signing millions of autographs! God has given you so much. Keep up the good work!

Wow! What an amazing group of kids. Can't wait to see what God is going to do in their lives and in the lives that they impact with their music. GREAT!!!

It's so amazing to see kids praising God in music!! That inspires me to follow my dreams! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

I could keep listening--and watching! What talent and energy! Their parents (and their Father) must be so proud!

These guys (and girl) are completely amazing! Not only on the stage but as ppl too. We need more ppl like this, so keep it coming 2nd wave!

Very cool - solid musically and a good message! How good will they be in a couple of years?!

Keep up the good work, kids!

No surprise to me - like father... like son. May God expand your borders as you use your awesome talent for Him.

Great job!

AWESOME!!! Great job guys!

This band is AMAZING! I know Noah and he is such a great kid and this band does a great job of putting their gifts to God's glory.

How wonderful that these young people are listening to God's call instead of the world's temptations! We need more like them!

You kids rock!! Praise God!!

How proud God must be to see His youth glorify His name. Great work!! Keep it up!!

These kids are great, and I hope they keep up their enthusiasm and love for the Lord thru music! The best of God's blessings to them!

Amazing! Not only have you been given a platform where you get to tell everyone there's no One like your Jesus, you do it with His joy, with excellence, and with infectious fun. God's going to do great things with y'all, so I'll be praying for you!

Great job, kids! Since music can speak to everyone, you have chosen a wonderful, fun way to share God's love and message with others. Keep singin' and playin'!!

That was precious! The talents He gives are amazing. I was smiling...I know God was.

To God be the glory. Thank you for our future Kingdom kids!!!

This band is awesome! And a child shall lead them... How exciting to see God working on our future. Continued favor and blessings to the parents!!

These kids are as sweet as they are talented! We can't wait to see all they achieve.

Fantastic guys! Keep it up!

I have notice that you have been in the most popular for two or three weeks. Keep using your talent for Jesus and He will bless your efforts.
