Over the past several years, The Lore Family has built up their ministry, spreading God's word through song and using their talents to serve. After finding success as an independent artist, the family has now signed with Horizon Records to release new music.

The Lore Family, consisting of Darren, Sandy and their two children, Fayth and Samuel, says the decision to join the Crossroads family was made prayerfully and with much counsel.

"Once again, God has ordered the steps of our family. Over the past decade, He has allowed our paths to cross with many talented people. And, we have formed relationships with people who have truly wanted to see our ministry succeed. In God's perfect timing, He has brought people in our lives to help us reach the next level," says Darren Lore. "And, this is why we are honored and humbled to be joining the Horizon Records label. We believe that we have joined a stellar, professional, ministry-driven team. The family at Crossroads are some of the best in the industry. And, we believe that this is going to be a great, long-lasting relationship."

Crossroads' Greg Bentley adds that he's heard The Lore Family's songs onSiriusXM enLighten and watched them climb the charts. After meeting the family, he says they're a great fit with Horizon's roster of artists.

"We strive to not just load up labels because someone wants to record with us. We look into who they are and what they've done, but mostly what kind of people they are," says Bentley. "I knew when we sat down with the whole family to meet that they have a focus on ministry and doing things in a first-class way. It is our goal to take the foundation they have laid and build upon that to take some of the load off them so they can truly focus on the ministry side sharing Jesus through song."

The Lore Family's upcoming album, Hidden Blessings, produced by Wayne Haun, will be released October 11 on Horizon Records.
