Get ready to laugh and sing with the new animated series “A Show About Anthem Lights,” premiering exclusively on Pure Flix on January 12, 2021. AFFIRM Films, the studio behind the animated film “The Star,” has helped bring the vision of creator and director Rob Hawkins to life.
The show is exactly what the title implies – an animated series depicting the Christian band, Anthem Lights, as they go about everyday activities navigating the ups and downs of life in a boyband ... all while singing about it!
“This show, in many ways, is a love letter to our fans and we think they are going to appreciate it as much as we appreciate them,” said band member Caleb Grimm. “We think it’s authentically funny and the music and stories will appeal to a wide range of people who may not be familiar with our music … yet.”

Who is Anthem Lights?
Anthem Lights is an American Christian group formed in Nashville, Tennessee in 2007. The band started as a solo project for the vocalist Chad Graham. He and Alan Powell were writing music for the project when they thought the songs would be better performed by a group. They came together with vocalists Kyle Kupecky and Caleb Grimm and formed the band Yellow Cavalier releasing one self-titled EP in 2009 before changing the name to Anthem Lights. The group signed with the label Reunion Records and in 2011 released the self-titled EP Anthem Lights and the full studio album with the same name. The first track from the EP “Can’t Shut Up” reached number 42 on Billboard’s Christian Songs chart. Together the band released 7 studio albums, Anthem Lights, You Have My Heart, Escape, Hymns, Painted Skies, Hymns Vol. II, and Worship. They also released 3 EPs, 5 compilation albums, and 9 singles. The bands current members are Chad Graham on vocals, Caleb Grim on vocals, Spencer Kane on vocals, and Joey Stamper on vocals, piano, guitar, and drums.
The Show Schedule
The series will be released in volumes and will feature animated versions of the band members, Spencer Kane, Joseph Stamper, Caleb Grimm and Chad Graham. The first volume includes episodes 1 to 4 and releases on January 12. Volumes 2 to 5 will debut every other Wednesday.

My Thoughts
I'm actually brand new to the music of Anthem Lights but I am definitely very appreciative already. With songs like 'Outta My Mind', my favorite by the way, that skillfully pairs a catchy tune with great vocals and is topped off with a thoughtful and moving message, it's easy to see why they are so well liked.
However, what really impressed me with Anthem Lights is their versatility and range of songs that they've done. From Christian pop to hymns sung a capella to inspiring patriotic music it seems like they have something for pretty much every mood.
With my recent introduction to Anthem Lights and their music I'm now pretty curious about their upcoming animated series on Pureflix. From everything I've seen it sounds like it will be pretty good, but then I usually enjoy Pureflix's series, and I'm looking forward to checking it out when the first episode airs...
