Oregon-based band Above The Golden State become Nations

THE BAND Above The Golden State, who had the self-titled debut album released through Sparrow in 2008, have changed their name. Now known as Nations, the band will be releasing an independent album in the autumn. Talking about the 'Nations' album frontman Michael Watson said, "Over a year ago when I sat down to pick out songs for the new record with Steve Wilson (producer of Above The Golden State), neither of us had any idea what this record would sound like or what it would be called. The further we got into production, two things were obvious to us: 1. It was a worship record and 2. It didn't exactly sound like an ATGS record. . . In the meantime, I had been searching and praying daily for a name I felt could represent this album. The word that kept coming up was 'nations'." CR
