Family Worship Center ON TOUR with Smoker Dad and Sativan!

Family Worship Center is a rock-and-soul commune born in Nashville, Tennessee and reborn in Portland, Oregon. Fronted by visionary songwriter and keyboardist Andy Krissberg, the group draws its name from a strange, cult-leaning text unearthed during a cross-country field recording journey.  An omen they’ve since transformed into a full-blown, groove-powered spiritual revival.

Their debut EP Sunday A.M. (produced by Grammy-winner Eddie Spear) introduced a lineup of heavy hitters with ties to The Band, Ringo Starr, and Deer Tick. Their 2023 full-length Kicked Out of the Garden, recorded across Portland, Philly, and Ukraine with producer Cameron Spies, spent eight weeks on the NACC 200 and landed the band on NPR’s Live Wire Radio and multiple year-end best-of lists. With a sound rooted in 1970s swagger, Leon Russell-style piano gospel, Southern rock, and communal soul, Family Worship Center brings their own throwback gospel to the people - complete with horns, harmonies, and secular salvation. Troy Nelson of KEXP called them “truly the best live band I have seen in years,” while The Portland Mercury described their show as “taking your ass to church” -and that’s exactly what they intend to do.
