Sundry is a music group passionate about uniting a diverse world through the struggles and commonalities of human life. 

​

The band Sundry started as a small group of friends pursuing degrees in music & worship at Grace Bible College in Grand Rapids, MI. It began with a leap of faith from leading lady Jessica  Veenemen. Her and her husband Eric decided to take the risk and embrace the music industry going forward the best ways they knew how.

       Within a year the band Sundry found itself making leaps and bounds in the music industry. Recording and producing a six track EP, getting paid to play music in front of hundreds of people time and time again, winning talent competitions, and creating connections with record label producing artists and radio stations.

       The band continues to sharpen their sound, but listeners will hear a fresh blend of rock & blues combined with the flavor of a singer/songwriter. Their inspirations are heavily influenced by artists such as Ben Rector and NEEDTOBREATHE. In every way Sundry seeks to make a name for themselves by bringing people together through their music.

"We see a broken world out there and we realize we cannot fix it. What we can do, however, is shine a light and let people know that they are not alone; they indeed have value and have every reason to celebrate life." 

- The Band Sundry
