More About Big Daddy Weave

Driven by the desire to see God move in people’s lives, Big Daddy Weave pours that fervor into songs such as "The Lion and The Lamb," "My Story," "Redeemed," "Overwhelmed, "The Only Name (Yours Will Be)" and "Alive," all that touch millions. When Jay Weaver, founding member and brother to lead singer Mike Weaver, went to be with the Lord in 2022, there was a celebration of victory for what Jesus has done paired with the pain of no longer having Jay in their daily lives. The time of grieving that followed brought revelations that were poured into songs.

"God Is In This Story," their duet with Katy Nichole, tells how God is with each of us in whatever we’re going through. "Heaven Changes Everything" shares how the promise of heaven gives us hope. These life messages are at the heart of every Big Daddy Weave song and concert. Visit their website at BigDaddyWeave.com.
