	About
		Morrison Street Band is an adult contemporary worship band consisting of 7 members…a worship leader, three musicians, two vocalists, and an intercessor.
		Some leaders consider it a threat for what ever reason and do not see the benefits of allowing themselves to be led and not always being the one to lead.
		Our job as I see it, is to help you as leaders by giving you a night to worship and rest with your church and possibly let your congregation see you in a light they may have never seen before, not just a leader…but a worshipper.

		The band’s founder, Tom Scholz, is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who invented a guitar amplification system that helped give Boston a unique sound.
		While most bands would be (and are) chastised for essentially staying put musically, it's tricker to do so with Boston as the music is just so good.
		And speaking of Brad Delp: Although Scholz clearly dominates the band, the guitars, the music, and the vision—Boston’s other signature sound is Delp’s soaring vocals (he handled all the voices himself on the albums); he ranks alongside Rush’s Geddy Lee as which guy can sing the highest.
