Buddy Jewell: Reloaded
Most know him as the family man who bested Miranda Lambert and eleven other hopefuls to win season one of Nashville Star. His voice, a throwback to the classic Country cadence of Waylon Jennings and Kenny Rogers, captivated the masses with its straightforward, well-worn, southern charm, but behind this small town success lies a powerful story of deliverance and grace. Born into a church going family from the Arkansas Delta, Buddy Jewell began his journey with both the Lord and music from a very young age. Born to musical parents, he grew up with stacks of classic Country records around the house, which prompted the talented youngster to pick up the guitar.
“When I was 7 years old, I made a public profession of faith but didn’t really understand what it meant to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I was a believer. I believed all the Bible stories about Him. I believed He was God’s only Son. I believed He was crucified and was resurrected and that He could and did forgive me of my sins, but I never gave my life fully to Him. He was my Savior but never my Lord. And as a result, my life reflected that.”
Although he had begun performing mostly in church, by the age of 15, Buddy’s life would take a dramatic turn when at 16, his girlfriend became pregnant, and he insisted on and paid for her to have an abortion.

Restoration often emerges from the unlikeliest of places. For Aaron & Amanda Crabb, it’s come in the form of planting and leading a church, as well as in the unexpected joy of welcoming a fourth child — not to mention recording a brand new album. In the three years since the release of their Dove-nominated Difference Media debut, Mercy, the couple has experienced tremendous change and immense growth. It’s something they readily acknowledge as part of God’s ultimate vision, and a direct catalyst for their much-anticipated new project, Restore.
