THE BOYS OF SHINE:
Dakota was born in 1996 and plays guitar with the youth praise team at his local church. He is compassionate, and, though introspective and shy at first, he is fiercely loyal once he is committed in a relationship. He enjoys writing music and playing in a Christian band he started with a few of his friends. Dakota enjoys tennis and swimming, and went on his fourth missions trip in June 2011. He was 12 years old when most of the recording took place.
Britton was born in 1998 and is learning bass guitar so that he may play in the youth praise band in his local church. He has overcome extreme obstacles regarding his health in that his parents were told he would not live to see his first birthday, would never sit alone, or walk. Britton excels at basketball and baseball, and loves to play tennis and swim. He went on his first missions trip in June 2011. He was 10 years old when most of the recording took place.
THE GIRLS OF SHINE:
Like Dakota, the girls enjoy writing their own songs. They are able to share them with the youth group at our church.
Amanda was born in 1993 and loves working with children at our church. She has a wonderful ability to bounce back from disappointments and has a contageous enthusiasm for life. She loves to shop and is an awesome bargain finder. She enjoys outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking, biking, camping, and ultimate (a frisbee game). She has just completed 12 credit hours through college online courses in general studies and criminal justice. Amanda was 15 years old when most of the original recording took place.
Jessica was born in 1995 and sings with the youth praise team at our church. She is reflective and introspective, analyzing and re-analyzing everything about human personality and relationships. Initially quiet and withdrawn, once she gets to know someone, she is completely engaging, witty, and entertaining. She enjoys computer art, pencil sketching, and has ideas for a Christian fantasy series. Jessica is also a swimmer and enjoys playing ultimate with the youth from church. She was 13 years old when most of the original recording took place.
