How did two people die from the mercy me christian band?”
Two people died this morning as a result of an accident involving Dallas based Christian pop band MercyMe’s in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Reports indicate that no one on the tour bus was injured in the Mercy Me accident. Reports indicate the MercyMe accident occurred at approximately 1:15 AM when a black Chevy Corsica abruptly turned into the path of the band’s tour bus. So far, the investigation suggests that the black car drove directly in front of the tour bus. A female and male passenger in the black car were pronounced dead at the Mercy Me accident scene. The driver of the car, a pregnant female, was transported to the hospital for treatment. Her condition and the condition of her unborn child is unknown at this time. MercyMe was on the way to Six Flag St. Louis for a concert today. As a result of the accident, the concert has been canceled.
The closest is Bart Millard’s dad died from Cancer MercyMe’s lead singer, Bart Millard wanted to become a football player, yet his football career ended when he injured his ankles in a high school football game. James (Jim) Bryson played piano for that band and later went on to play with Bart Millard and the worship band on a trip to Switzerland. This trip became the cause of Millard and Bryson’s consideration of playing music full-time. Millard and his friend, guitarist Mike Scheuchzer, moved to Oklahoma City to form MercyMe with Bryson. The trio set up a studio and a “living area” in an old abandoned day-care center. Bassist Nathan Cochran and Drummer Robby Shaffer joined the band later on, accompanying the band on releasing six independent projects before signing with INO Records in 2001.
