The Burn Band evolved out of the worship team at The Burn Church (the Vineyard Church's alternative service). It was officially named 'The Burn Band' for the recording of 'All From You', which was released in 2006 by Vineyard Records UK. But the band itself has been going a lot longer, with different musicians being called upon at different times. They recorded the best selling CD 'Beautiful' (selling upwards of 50,000 units) which was released in 2002, and the live album 'Winds of Worship -Holy' in 2003. As well as having numerous homegrown songs used on other various compilation CDs.
"The Burn Band have to be the punchiest, tightest bunch of church musicians in Britain and I wouldn't be surprised if rock devotees begin making regular visits to St Albans Vineyard to catch these worshipping rockers. But what gives TBB focus and direction is Sam Lane. With his long hair and all out passion he looks and sounds like a throwback from '60s California's Jesus Revolution while his amazing worship version of the pop standard "You Are So Beautiful To Me" was riveting and genuinely anointed." - Tony Cummings, Cross Rhythms Radio. 'Passion 07'
Some of the places 'The Burn Band' have lead worship include; Greenbelt, The Vineyard UK National Leaders conference, New Wine, Spring Harvest, Identify, Passion 07, The Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit, and internationally 'Get Rooted' youth ministry in Canada, 'Entrega' Brazilian National Worship Leaders Conference.
