From their energetic live performances to their deep-rooted desire to spread the gospel,
pureNRG personifies the phrase “Faith in Action.” The youthful trio burst onto the scene
last year with their top-selling Fervent Records debut, rapidly becoming one of the most
popular young acts in both mainstream and Christian circles.

pureNRG has become a favorite on Radio Disney and have logged a tremendous
number of miles on the road—first as the opening act on Jump5’s farewell tour, and most
recently on the Winter Jam tour with MercyMe, BarlowGirl and Skillet. The group---
comprised of Carolyne, Jordan, and Caroline---debuted last year with a self-titled CD and
followed with two DVD releases that showcased not only their vocal skills, but also their
amazing acrobatics and complex choreography.

The momentum continues with “Here We Go Again,” the trio’s sophomore release on
Fervent Records. “It’s high energy and it’s also something that you can let your kids
listen to,” says Carolyne, describing the group’s music with a directness and candor that
seems older than her late tween years. “With my mom, if we want a CD, she has to check
it out first and I think parents will feel very at ease with the CD and the songs because of
the message and the energy. They know their kids will be having fun, but also listening to
good music.”

It’s that combination of high-octane energy combined with lyrical integrity that lies at
the core of pureNRG’s success. Each member of the group brings a diverse skill set to
pureNRG. They’ve all been involved in dance since the age of three and are all engaging
vocalists who know how to deliver a great pop song with enviable style and panache.
Most importantly, they are committed young believers who are active in church and their
community.

In recording their second CD, the group once again enlisted producers Rob Hawkins
and Mark Hammond, who steered the group’s successful debut effort. Though none of
the group members are even old enough to be sophomores in high school, they were
suddenly faced with the possibility of one of the most feared phenomena in the music
industry—the dreaded sophomore slump.

“We put it out of our minds because we were looking for the same kind of songs,” says
Jordan of the group’s If-it-ain’t-broke-don’t-fix-it mentality. “When we started listening
to songs for the new album, we were so in awe of how many great songs there were.”
“Here We Go Again” opens with the buoyant title track, a high-energy tune with a
catchy chorus that is an instant sing along. “Any Which Way” continues the good time
vibe, and Jordan cites it among his favorites on the album. “It’s saying to give yourself to
God and to let Him take you wherever He wants you to go, and that’s what we do,” he
says.

The female members of the trio are enthusiastic about the light-hearted anthem “Girls
Can Change the World” and also cite “BFF” as another fun favorite they think their
audience will relate to immediately. But as much as they shine on up tempo fare such as
“Get Up” and “Like,” the trio aren’t afraid to slow it down and deliver a meaningful
ballad. Among the album’s highlights is a beautiful cover of the Nicole C. Mullen classic
“Call on Jesus.”

“I was really nervous doing it because I really love singing that song and I love Nicole
Mullen,” says Carolyne. “The producer and I would pray before every pass while
recording it in the studio.”

The group plans to incorporate the song into their live shows. “It’s definitely a worship
song and we want to incorporate worship songs into our set,” says Caroline. “It’s going to
be cool.”

pureNRG has a unique ability to take a song and make it their own. In addition to the
new songs, the trio also revives a couple of pop chestnuts, bringing a 2008 update to such
timeless gems as “That’s What Friends Are For” and “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.”
They also deliver a youthful take on the Matthew West hit “More.”

When they aren’t on the road, Jordan, Carolyne, and Caroline attend school and are
active in church activities. “We go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays and it’s like a
normal school,” explains Carolyne of the school they attend that caters to home-schooled
students. “It’s fun because we get to have school friends and be like normal kids. We
usually go on the road Thursdays, and we just stay organized with our school work.”
Being a member of pureNRG is a lot of work, but it’s a mission the young members
totally enjoy. “My most favorite part is when we learn the choreography,” says Jordan of
the hours they devote to rehearsing new routines. “I love doing something new and
fresh.”

pureNRG’s stage show is totally engaging and the music both entertains and inspires.
There’s no denying the fun factor these three young artists bring to table, yet each one
will readily tell you, there’s so much more they want to offer. “We came here to teach
kids and people about Christ and turn people’s lives around,” says Jordan.

“Our music is really fun and high energy most of the time,” adds Caroline, “but we feel
our relationship with God has changed our lives so much that we need to share that. We
can also have the high-energy music that the mainstream has, but we can also spread
God’s name. That’s what we feel we’re here for.”
