Catalyst Worship Band is a music ministry that works with Catalyst Theatre Company and Prisoners For Christ. We play for churches, prisons, and youth detention centers with a message of hope with songs from Casting Crowns, Jeremy Camp, Matthew West, Canvas, and others along with worship favorites from Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, Hillsongs, and others.
Our team is made up of musicians with a heart for outreach from Cedar Park Church in Bothell, WA.
