WE ARE ONE
TRIEDSTONE captures the theatric tone of modern day messengers; speaking of the goodness of God’s grace in past and present times preparing hearts for what is to come. In their debut album the TRUE WORSHIP PROJECT, TRIEDSTONE are travelers on a journey sharing the knowledge of what leads them to God and the understanding of what true worship is. Unearthing wisdom in the power of a relationship with God rather than the superficial routine most get lost in. The album touches many genres, bursting out of the box of Gospel and Contemporary Christian music; creating a new lane of God inspired music. TRIEDSTONE’s interpretation of the Word becomes a beacon to all who hear; with compelling vocals and lyrics paired with well-crafted arrangements and musicianship. The move of the Spirit is inevitable. There are songs that will transport you to another realm in praise and the intimacy of beseeching God’s presence. Songs that you can’t help but dance or rock out to, there is something for everyone on the journey to experiencing the sovereign power of God.

Hailing from Inglewood, California, CHANNING COOK HOLMES is a professional at EVERYTHING. Dancer, Drummer, Actor, Singer and Fashion Entrepreneur, Channing has traveled the world leaving huge footprints. Channing’s genesis consisted of tap and drum lessons leading to commercials and movie roles under the tutelage and mentorships of Alfred Desio and the great Gregory Hines. Channing’s short list of credits consist of appearances in A Showtime Original: Bojangles, Martin Scorsese’s Gangs of New York, Jazz Tap Ensemble and Riverdance (International, Regional and Broadway casts). He also performed the Duke Ellington Sacred Suite of David Danced Before the Lord with The Jack Lanze Orchestra and the Luckman Orchestra at the Disney Concert Hall for multiple years. As a 2-time Princess Grace Grant Award winner for Dance Fellowship for Tap, 2-time Nominee and 2006-07 NAACP Theatre Award winner for choreography, Channing’s accolades are numerous in his field. Channing recently wrapped a world tour with Grammy nominated and VMA award winning music group, Capital Cities; opening for Katy Perry on the PRIZMATIC TOUR. Channing has turned his focus to kingdom work as one of the producer/songwriter and drummer to the TRUE WORSHIP PROJECT.
As a South Bay native, growing up in Carson, California, ASHLEY R HOLMES has taken all her observations of life and put them into poetry; leaving them to simmer for several years not knowing the magnitude of what those private writings would be in the future. A true Clark Kent to Superman story, Ashley found herself in a tug of war with her creative calling vs a corporate atmosphere. Being a consummate multitasker is an understatement; Ashley created time to write a book and write/direct a stage play while working for a major lifestyle brand. Ashley chose her passion and took the leap into full time artistry; fashioning an art centered nonprofit, Lyrics Over Beats, while writing and co-producing this project. Truly a hidden treasure, Ashley’s deep imagery and word play solidifies her a lyricist; a daydreamer building music around soul stories that are grounded in soul teachings as the Word illustrates. With a wide appreciation for different musical genres, her writing style reflects a multifarious outlook on what Gospel/Contemporary Christian music can become. As well as writing and composing, she is a contributing vocalist on this album. Ashley has stepped out into the sun ready to share a work formulated from a long relationship with the Father; things she has only shared with God.
