Red Street Records artist, Cade Thompson, is an energetic and soulful Contemporary Christian music artist with a sound that appeals to believers and mainstream pop audiences alike. Cade’s effortless style promotes his personal musical influences, which draws heavily from the church. Cade has an admirable ability to transform his thoughts and faith into a powerful collection of melodies and lyrics that inspire people of all ages to step into all that God has for them.

Cade has had an affinity with music since his toddler days when even a preschool teacher noticed him frequently harmonizing early on, and eventually progressed through piano, guitar and drum lessons. After joining the youth worship team in 6th grade, a music mentor came into his life who emphasized the importance of seeking God through the Bible outside of a worship setting. This understanding placed Cade on a deeper course of encountering the love of the Father and seeking His presence more intently. In these early teen years, Cade knew God was calling him into music ministry and giving him opportunities to grow in that calling.

God has continued to reveal Cade’s heart, the outpouring has resulted in a strong connection to his generation sonically and lyrically. Shortly after finishing high school, Cade moved to Nashville, Tennessee. Following his move, Cade signed a record deal with Red Street Records, an independent Christian label founded by Rascal Flatts member, Jay DeMarcus. Thompson made waves across the Christian music community with the release of his debut single, “Provider” and in August 2020, earned his first Top 20 Billboard charting single with “Every Step of the Way.” He has also seen huge success online, where his music has earned over sixty million streams to date.

Cade hit the ground running in 2021 and 2022, with a consistent lineup of shows across the nation opening for some of CCM’s biggest names. Cade’s debut album, Bigger Story, was released in September 2021 and paved the way for his upcoming sophomore album, Empty Room. Dropping in April 2023, this project will host 12 powerful tracks including Cade’s current radio single “Good God,” which follows his massively successful “Arms of Jesus” that racked up over sixteen million streams to date.

For Canadian singer-songwriter Jordan Janzen, learning to play music came as naturally as learning to walk and talk. Janzen’s parents, part of Christian rock band Sojourner, naturally instilled in him a love of music. “For me,” Janzen says, “music and worship are intertwined.”

After participating in a local singing competition at age 17, Janzen and several bandmates went on a six-week tour across Canada with Amanda Cook. That first tour ignited a fire and the next decade was spent building the skills and fanbase that equipped Janzen and friends to launch “The Color” in 2012.

Janzen, like most artists, toured full time until COVID hit and all touring shut down. “My priorities started to change during that time,” Janzen says. “After the pandemic, I started coming to Nashville for writing appointments, totally open-handed. I knew it was time to start something fresh.”

Going solo unlocked a new level of vulnerability within Janzen. For the first time as an artist, he began allowing pieces of his own experience and struggles into the songs he was writing. “There’s a new, deeper honesty to my songs that make them a place of safety,” he says. “That’s what I want when people hear my music, to know they can connect with a God of safety and comfort.”

Earned perspective and an unshakable faith are what drive Janzen’s worship-fueled pop songs. “It’s so amazing to use my creative gifting to leave a mark. As long as that’s happening, I’ll keep doing it.”
