SLAVES WAGE is a four piece band located in Arlington, TX.
James Johnson, David Blair, Brent McKnight and Jeff Saenz are Christians and their love for all things heavy and their Lord prove to be a match made in Heaven. Their hope and prayer is that these songs will in some way help all who listen find the answers to their questions, solutions to their problems, peace for a troubled mind and a relationship with the God who so loved us that He gave His only born Son, Jesus Christ, that we might experience what life was really intended to be (JOHN 3:16 ; JOHN 10:10)
