Chasing the Dream – A Crossover Christian Rock Anthem for the Soul and Spirit

🎸 New Release by Rock Good Breaks Through the Noise with Raw Emotion and Faith-Driven Fire. 🎧

WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE

From the first strum to the final chorus, Chasing the Dream is everything you want a Crossover Christian Rock song to be—passionate, bold, and spiritually electrifying. The track rides the line between alternative rock grit and faith-fueled messaging, delivering a sound that’s both familiar and refreshingly honest. Anchored by the powerhouse vocals of David Allen, whose voice carries both pain and praise in perfect balance, this song doesn’t just sing—it speaks.

Musically, it hits like a heartfelt punch. The guitars—handled brilliantly by Mike Fjerstad—deliver both crunch and clarity, while Joel Stevenett’s drums bring an anthemic pulse that keeps you leaning in. Daniel Blomberg’s piano adds moments of softness that feel like a prayer in the middle of a storm. And with the tight bass work by Matt Clayton and Dave Zimmerman’s clean engineering, the production feels both retro and timeless. The result? A Crossover Christian Rock gem that sounds like something you’d hear blasting from a 70s arena but with a message that’s deeply rooted in modern-day faith.

SPIRITUAL/LYRICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Biblical Hope Wrapped in Anthemic Rock

The lyrics of Chasing the Dream echo with biblical conviction. Lines like “Smiles and Cries for a Life” and “Me against me, chasing the Dream” point to the internal spiritual battle we all face. It’s the Apostle Paul’s words in Romans 7:15 set to music: “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.”

The bridge line, “Keep knocking you got the Key,” aligns with Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” There’s no mistaking the intent behind these lyrics. This isn’t just a song about chasing worldly dreams—it’s about chasing God’s purpose for your life, trusting that even when the doors slam shut, the right one will eventually open.

And let’s not overlook Proverbs 19:21, which is even quoted behind the scenes of the project: “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” That verse sums up the heart of this song perfectly.

BEST THING ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Obedience, Discovery, and a Purpose-Filled Voice

Ask Rock Good what the highlight of Chasing the Dream was, and the answer might surprise you. It wasn’t landing an America’s Got Talent or American Idol finalist, though those doors were open. It was discovering that David Allen—a relatively unknown, young Christian artist—was God’s chosen voice for this song. And it took a full trip around the sun to recognize it.

That realization made the entire process more than just a music project. It became a testimony of listening, waiting, and trusting God’s plan over human preference. Allen’s resilience and faith-filled performance turned this into something truly divine. As Rock Good says, “Chasing the Dream is his destiny.” And that’s the beauty of this track—it was birthed in obedience, matured in faith, and delivered through raw talent and spiritual surrender.

FOR FANS OF

If You Like These Artists, You’ll Love Rock Good

If you vibe with the emotional rawness of Stryper (I Believe In You), the powerful conviction of Classic Petra – Back to the Rock, or the soul-bearing authenticity of David Meecen, then Chasing the Dream is right up your alley. It blends rock elements with lyrical vulnerability, much like David Meece does with “Falling Down” or Petra with “Beyond Belief.”

David Allen’s vocals have the same storytelling quality as Needtobreathe’s Bear Rinehart—rich, honest, and tinged with that Southern rock soul. And while this song leans more masculine in vocal delivery, the spiritual depth and crossover appeal are very reminiscent of what Lauren Daigle brings to the Christian music table.

This Crossover Christian Rock release is standing tall among these industry giants—just waiting to be discovered by a larger audience.
