“In the winter of 1990, Holy Countdown became part of the Christian Music Industry. Founded by Dave & Barbe Paris, the group has taken the message of Jesus Christ from local communities to big cities. The year 1993 sent Holy Countdown into the entire nation. Their demo Hands of Time received airplay on numerous radio stations across the Midwest. A station in Des Moines, Iowa caught wind of Holy Countdown & filmed a Rockumentary which produced 2 videos. The video for their song “Holy Fire” aired nation wide on secular video program as local & national media reported on the band.

The group has also been blessed with the opportunity to perform concerts and share billing with several major label artists, among which include: Bride, D.O.C., Avalon, Greg Long, Bruce Carroll, Joe Club, and Lowell Lundstrom. Their music style is blatantly Christian, hard/modern rock. They pull no punches about their faith in Jesus Christ & perform their songs with hard edged enthusiasm and emotion.”
