How it started

Go Fish started as an a cappella group in Minnesota with the mission of using music to follow Christ’s call to be “fishers of men.” For the first five or six years, their story wasn’t too out of the ordinary. They were an indie band that sold a lot of records, got noticed by a record label in Nashville, signed a record deal, and went on to tour the country and garner several successful Christian radio singles.

Then something they never would’ve predicted happened. They made a children’s record, and it was successful beyond anything they had ever experienced.

Almost overnight, we were performing at national conferences and events organized by MOPS, CPC, Focus on the Family, and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Our music resonated with parents and children alike, spreading like wildfire. We were humbled to discover the immense need for high-quality, gospel-centered music created specifically for families.

Since then, Go Fish has performed all over the country and released a line of children’s ministry resources, including VBS curriculum, Christmas and Easter curriculum, and worship videos. Recent releases include two “word-for-word” Scripture songs, a series of educational Songs for Teachers, and “A Broken Crayon,” a single that became a children’s book in 2025.

The current Go Fish lineup is Jamie Statema, Chad Graham, and DJ Chase Akers, all based in Nashville, Tennessee.
