We're a band, we make videos too. Here's a bit about us:
After a whirlwind entrance onto the music scene in 2008, which yielded two albums, three Top 5 radio hits, a No. 1 music video as well as multiple tours and international appearances, pop/rock band Philmont is back for another round with its latest creative offering, The Transition EP.

Appropriately titled in light of recent personal and professional changes, the album is a testament to Philmont's growth over the last two years.

Also showcasing an inventive, forward-thinking spirit, Philmont allowed its fans to be part of the process by helping partially finance this independent endeavor through Kickstarter.com, an interactive website that serves as a financial platform for musicians, filmmakers and journalists hoping to make an impact on the world through artistic projects.

"I was absolutely blown away by the support of our fans," says Taube. "We love to hang out with the kids before and after the shows, and we want to be solid role models who encourage them in their own faith walks. Their contribution of more than $4000 is a validation to us that our
