David Funk lives in Redding, CA with his wife and son, where he leads worship for
Bethel Church and is a part of Bethel Music. A church boy through and through, he
has a passion for the local church and specifically the development of local worship
teams, not in skill alone but also in the pursuit of the presence of God, individually
and corporately. Funk is known for his recording of “Touch of Heaven / Alabaster
Heart (Live)” and has appeared on several Bethel Music albums leading songs
including “Son Of Suffering” (2021) and “Beauty” (2023).

TGD (short for Trzecia Godzina Dnia – The Third Hour of the Day) has been known
to Polish listeners for over 40 years. Their music falls into the pop-gospel genre,
although TGD’s current repertoire consists mainly of original pieces by Piotr
Nazaruk, the band’s leader and conductor. For years now, it’s been one of the best-
known, and definitely the longest-running musical groups in Poland that performs
contemporary music with a Christian message.
What makes up the group’s sound today is over a dozen singers, an instrumental
band, and a group of soloists. A common feature of both the live concerts and the
recorded albums is the wide variety of musical genres (smooth melodies, rock
rhythms, ballads, and elements of rap), yet always the same substance – lyrics
based on the Scripture.
The band has to date released 13 albums with original music. TGD is also
recognized by a wider audience through TV concerts and guest appearances on
music and entertainment TV shows. <br> One of TGD’s well-known projects is the annual “Kolędy świata” (Carols of the
World) tour, to which the group has invited many renowned guests over the years
(Ania Karwan, Kasia Cerekwicka, Kuba Badach, Piotr Cugowski and more), taking
the audience on a journey through the most interesting Christmas musical traditions
from around the world.
The band’s concerts, although presenting a top musical quality, are not so much a
form of artistic performance as a “sound-wrapped” prayer.

A group of five good friends from Poland making music to change the reality. We’ve
met in church but prefer to play in places the church hasn’t yet reached. Although
studying jazz, it’s not really what we play here – rather sneak it in. We make sure our
beats are neat, melodies honest, and technique impeccable. Genre-wise, we sit
somewhere around pop – the more alternative one.
We started off in 2016. As of today, our songs have been played over 700,000 times
on Spotify by over 57,000 users – including 3,000 who follow our profile. After all
these years we can tell you one thing for certain: we want to achieve much more,
venture much further and we are working hard to make it happen.
Recently, we have released two singles: “Co Tam” and “Cud nad Wisłą”. As of
06/05/24 these were played over 275,000 times on Spotify alone and featured on
official Spotify playlists: Alternatywna Polska and New Music Friday.
