About the Collective
Get to Know Us
In early 2022, Adam Tavolaro and Kelly Williams sensed a call to create a collective, where musicians in the Atlanta area (and beyond) could write and perform modern christian music relevant to where God meets people today. Adam and Kelly began praying and soon began writing the first songs that would launch the collective, and we are glad to be part of what story God tells through our music. We all have a unique and valuable story to tell, and we are blessed to be a part of sharing that into the world.
