Founder and lead singer of the Morgan Guin Band, Morgan Guin has been leading worship actively for over ten years. Starting in her youth worship band while in high school and continuing on in volunteer and hired positions from that point on, worship was something Morgan fell in love with from a young age.

Morgan says, "I never expected myself to actually end up leading worship as my ministry. I just thought it was something God was letting me do for a season of my life. But reality turned out quite different when one day I just woke up and realized that God wasn't haphazardly giving me these opportunities. This was the call on my life. And when I accepted it, I knew it came with a lot of responsibility."

Starting the Morgan Guin Band while in college, Morgan set off with fellow believers to bring the Word of God to young people in their area. "We began by leading worship for youth events - fifth quarters, rallies, lock-ins, and more. It just took off from there," says Morgan.

From the fall of her sophomore year in college on, Morgan found herself booked at churches across the Southwest. "When the momentum was there without my concerted effort, I knew God was doing something big. I was just along for the ride."

When it comes to the current line up of musicians in the band, Morgan is more excited than ever. "I feel so privileged and blessed to minister with Josh, Marc, and David. These guys are the real deal and their goal is ministry first, then music. I couldn't ask for more. It's so exciting to see how God blesses four people who are looking to serve Him with their talents. This has been my dream for this band from day one," Morgan says.

Today, the MGB leads worship for events across the US. Morgan continues, "The goal is something a lot bigger than just a typical church worship experience. We want to engage the audience in an authentic encounter with the mighty God. That's why what we write covers a wide gamut of topics - everything from life, love, loss, disappointment, confusion, excitement, your first crush, your first break-up, and basically anything and everything we as humans experience. We want young people to see that being a Christian is not a mindless, blissful experience that has no touch of reality. We want them to hear through our lyrics that God is interested in getting involved in our every-day lives. He wants all of us, not just what we give Him on Sunday mornings."

With fresh lyrics and a new sound, MGB is pushing the envelope of Christian music, redefining the worship experience by bridging the gap between the sacred and the secular, and as a result, reaching those who are searching to fill their souls with something real.

Morgan says, "Bono spoke the heart of a young generation when he sang, 'I still haven't found what I'm looking for.' I suppose our goal is to say to the upcoming generation, 'We HAVE found what we were looking for and if you listen to what we've got to say, you just might, too."
