CAIN Live in Concert
CAIN are siblings Madison Cain Johnson, Taylor Cain Matz, and Logan Cain. They were raised in Alabama, the children of a pastor, and developed a love for music early on. They graduated from Troy University in Troy, Alabama.
Their success story begins with a contest held by country musician Dave Barnes. Their first entry was a cover of Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody." They continued to advance, covering more songs, and eventually winning the contest. They got additional help with connections made through their grandfather, a former country music publishing executive.
They initially pursued a career in country music, but after five years of a lot of hard work and not much traction, they took a break. They were approached by their now manager Ron Smith at their Nashville church about trying a career in Christian music and, with careful consideration, decided to give it a shot. It turned out to be the key to unlocking their songwriting capabilities and success. Smith got the group a meeting with Provident Label Group and they were offered a recording contract. They've since had several chart-topping hits, amassed almost 1.5 million fans on Spotify, and had over a million streams.
The band's website bio says they're "doing their favorite thing, singing about Jesus."
