The Plain Truth

Every Sunday Evening - 6pm

The Plain Truth – arguably South Africa’s top Christian pop/rock worship band – was formed early in 2007 by various members of two top SA bands (ONE80, The Narrow and Ardé) with the purpose of positively influencing young people and combating moral decay in today’s society. The combined success and experience gained by these members from their previous outfits made up the ingredients which contributed to an explosion onto the scene.

“The Plain Truth” recently released their 3rd full length album titled “we are the shining ones”. The band wrote the album for over 9 months and invested much time into ensuring that each song is a favourite.

The album features 11 brand new original songs and was mixed in Nashville in the USA by Sean Moffitt who is one of the biggest talents in the USA. Chris Stevens (mix engineer and producer on the Hillsong United Aftermath album amongst MANY others) assisted with producing the album and it was mastered by arguably the best company in the world – Sterling Sound.
