Members: Aracely Bock

Aracely (rhymes with "are you silly") started singing and writing lyrics in 1991 shortly after coming to the Lord. She sang her first complete song to a friend while tapping out a rhythm on her lap. Needing an instrument to write and sing with, she traded her old trumpet for an acoustic guitar at a pawn shop in Garland, Texas and learned a few chords from her friend.

In 1992 Aracely joined Jesus People USA in Chicago and started playing with the worship team right away. She became involved in forming the band Seeds in 1995 after enlisting the help of some fellow JPUSA musicians to play with her at a local coffeehouse.

In 2004 she released her solo debut, In The Sandbox, and started performing with Bill Russell. Later that year she added James Council on drums and Kris Denlinger on bass. Since adding additional musicians, her sound has progressed from acoustic folk to a mixture of jazz, country, and 80s alternative rock.

Aracely is currently working on a new album. View photos, updates and listen to recent live recordings at aracelybock.com
