Petra was the premiere Christian rock band. They helped prove that Christians were
not buttoned up church song singing nerds. They proved that they could rock just as
hard as any other rock band. God Gave Rock and Roll to You has become
one of the
greatest of all Christian rock anthems. They are also one of the longest running
groups in all popular music, starting in the seventies and continued performing during
2005 which was their last year of touring.
Their newest album is produced by the Newsboy's record label InPop.
The album features the return of founding member Bob Hartman on lead
guitar. Bob Hartman and John W Schlitt was currently touring as Two
Guys From Petra.
