Shane & Shane have been singing together for a long time, but the evolution of their sound has only gotten richer. Shane & Shane give this advice to any up-and-coming Christian artists.
“The person who is gifted, who loves where they are in life and is truly content in the Lord, is the one we are usually envisioning as someone who can handle the stress and pitfalls of a platform life. This person has ambition, but at the end of the day, they are satisfied with where they are.”
