  • Downhere is a Juno, Dove, and Covenant Award winning Christian rock (melodic alt-rock) band from Canada. They have released four albums to date, the latest being the Juno Award winning, Ending is Beginning, released on September 23, 2008. The band was formed by Marc Martel and Jason Germain who were room mates at Briercrest Bible College in Caronport, Saskatchewan. Martel and Germain added fellow Canadians Tyson Manning and Jeremy Thiessen to the mix and released a now out-of-print, self-titled debut CD on Slyngshot Records. That album was re-worked with new bassist Glenn Lavender and became their debut international release through Word Records. Their second album, also released through Word Records was entitled So Much For Substitutes. In 2006 they were signed to Centricity Records and released Wide-Eyed And Mystified which led to Covenant Awards (GMA Canada) for Recorded Song of the Year (for "A Better Way") and Rock Album of the Year and the 2007 Juno Award for Contemporary Christian/Gospel Album of the Year. In 2007, the band released two additional CDs that were unique. In early 2007, they released Wide-Eyed and Simplified, which contained new versions of 8 songs from Wide-Eyed and Mystified, in addition to three popular songs from earlier releases. Later in 2007, the band released Thunder After Lightning (The Uncut Demos). This album contained 15 previously unreleased demos which were considered for use on Wide-Eyed and Mystified but were not used. The CD also contained demo versions of 2 songs which were used on Wide-Eyed and Mystified. The band completed recording sessions for new album, Ending is Beginning, released on September 23, 2008. The band released the songs for a few days and gave fans the chance to give input on which songs they should put on the album, and as a pre-release to Ending is Beginning in June 2008 they gave away the whole album Wide-Eyed and Mystified as a free download(1).

Dit leverde onder meer een Dove Award nominatie op voor "New Artist of the Year", een Juno Award voor "Best Gospel Album", en de Canadian Gospel Music Association Covenant Award voor "Rock Album of the Year" en "Rock Song of the Year" (voor het nummer "Larger Than Life"). Het album So Much For Substitutes uit 2003, leverde de band een "Dove Award" op voor het nummer "Breaking Me Down," alswel de uitverkiezing van Marc Martel tot "Best Male Vocalist" door Christianmusictoday. com. Na een wat stillere periode, waardoor de band bij het grote publiek wat uit beeld raakte, kwam Downhere in 2006 sterker dan ooit terug met het album Wide-Eyed And Mystified.
