Luminate

Luminate, meaning to shine light into darkness, is comprised of band members Sam Hancock (lead vocal/guitar/piano), Dusty Jakubik (bass), Cody Clark (lead guitar/keys) and Aaron Matthew (drums). With all of the guys having a strong music background, they also all share a heart for carrying a message for the Kingdom of God through song. Luminate aims to show people that they have purpose when they think they have none. The band’s album Welcome To Daylight released August 2012 on Sparrow Records. Produced by Paul Moak, Ed Cash and Ben Glover, the band’s full-length debut Welcome To Daylight opens with the compelling lead radio single and title track, and continues with a set of worshipful and emotion-filled songs that draw from personal journeys of overcoming fear, fighting apathy and finding hope, peace and purpose in Christ. In 2006, Luminate began non-stop touring with their first appearance at Cornerstone Festival. In 2007, the band met an A&R representative from Sparrow Records at the festival. This relationship eventually led to Luminate signing with the label in March 2009.
