Background

ShineBright are from Orrville, Ohio, which Emily and Nathan started by leading youth worship services at their church, and that happened in 2007.[4] The band solidified in 2009 with their current membership.[4] At this time, Shine Bright Baby was spotted at the Alive Festival by the Tooth & Nail Records label, which they continued their interest, but it was not until 2012 when they were introduced to BEC Recordings by Tooth & Nail.[5] Lastly, Emily stated that they did not get serious in making music until 2010.[6]

According to CCM Magazine, the band took their name from Philippians 2.[7] In addition, they told Christian Music Zine that the name was because the scripture "talks about shining brightly for Christ, just like the stars in the universe."[5]
