some info about the band:

For the record, how did you come up with the name Starfield?

TN: We got it from a Bruce Cockburn song. Bruce, for those who don't know, is an old school Canadian folk star. He's been around since the late 70's. At the time he was kind of flirting with Christianity he wrote the song, "Lord of the Starfields" from which we take our name It was just a cool name for a band and it had some spiritual application as well - the "Starfield" the vast expanse of God's creation.

Interesting Hapenings:

On April 25, 2008, Starfield was performing a concert at the Central Heights Church in Abbotsford, British Columbia, when a lighting scaffold fell over and a portion of the floor collapsed under fans dancing in front of the stage. A number of concertgoers, mostly youth, fell through the floor into the basement. More than 40 people were injured, several seriously, but there were no fatalities. As a result, a concert scheduled April 26 in Burnaby, British Columbia was postponed and a concert scheduled April 28 in Red Deer, Alberta was cancelled. During the event, singer Tim Neufeld asked the crowd to cease dancing. When the floor collapsed, Neufeld threw his microphone aside and jumped down about 10 feet (3.0 m) to help the victims below.

So why I love Starfield?

1. Lead singer voice is just amazingly good, addictive!
2. Great contemporary tunes, not really too edgy rockish kind.
3. Albums are just listenable (which means all songs have tunes to it)
4. Hardly get bored even after much replays
