More about Sons Of Korah

Sons of Korah is one of Australia's most distinctive and enduring Christian bands, dedicated to giving a fresh voice to the biblical Psalms through contemporary music. Formed in Geelong, Victoria, in 1994, the band has spent more than three decades creating songs that draw directly from Scripture, transforming the Psalms into deeply moving musical experiences that resonate with listeners across denominations and generations. Led by founding member Matthew Jacoby, Sons of Korah has carved out a unique place within Christian music by setting the words of the Psalms to original compositions, often retaining the biblical text almost verbatim.

Their music blends folk, acoustic, rock, world, and worship influences, creating a sound that is both contemplative and accessible. Through their work, the band seeks to reconnect modern audiences with the emotional honesty, beauty, lament, praise, and hope found throughout the Psalms. Over the years, Sons of Korah has interpreted more than 50 of the 150 Psalms and released a substantial catalogue of albums and recordings. Songs such as Psalm 16 (Keep Me Safe), Psalm 34 (Taste and See), Psalm 51, Psalm 127, Psalm 139, and Isaiah 53 have become beloved by listeners around the world who appreciate their rich theology and artistic depth.

More than a worship band, Sons of Korah functions as a musical ministry, inviting people into the ancient prayers and songs of God's people. Their commitment to scriptural integrity, creative excellence, and spiritual authenticity has established them as a respected voice within both Australian and international Christian music communities.
