Who would have guessed back in 1999 when brother/sister duo Marcus and Sara Acker were asked to assemble their talents for a church worship band that the collaboration would lead to the birth of Inhabited. In 2003, Inhabited hit the scene with its independent project, Innerview. The album, based firmly upon a passion to reach kids for Christ through music, afforded Inhabited gigs in coffee houses and church services nationwide. Some might say Inhabited officially launched its career, however, with a memorable radio interview in small-town Conroe, Texas. The local deejay handed Inhabited's album to Nashville, Tenn. promoter Kyle Fenton, who helped propel its single "Rescue Me" into the Top 10 on Christian Rock radio.

When record labels began asking about this rock band with the passionate lead vocalist, it became evident that Inhabited's journey was only beginning. Its vision is crystal clear on The Revolution, Inhabited's debut label release from Fervent Records. Inspired by a mission to connect with this generation, Inhabited combines its passion for music with a ministry focus that reaches beyond the surface to the heart of its audience.

Although Sara's focus had always been missions, it soon became obvious that God was calling her specifically to music ministry. "Never in my life have I been more certain about where I'm supposed to be and what my calling is," says Sara.

"Sara and I decided that we wanted to pursue music," says Marcus. "And we knew we didn't need a record deal to start playing shows or to record a CD."

Eventually choosing to partner with Fervent Records in its ministry efforts, Inhabited soon began work, compiling songs for the band's first national project. Topping Marcus' list of desirable producers was Monroe Jones, who is responsible for shaping the careers of such notable artists as Third Day, Chris Rice, Mark Schultz, and Ginny Owens.
