Go Fish Corner

Go Fish:

This is my site dedicated to my favorite band of all-time: Go Fish. For those of you who don't know, Go Fish is a Christian a cappella band from Twin Cities, Minnesota. That's great because that's where I live!

The members of Go Fish are Jamie Statema, Jason Folkmann, and Andy Selness. Jason does the tenor vocals notes, Andy does the low notes, and Jamie is the lead singer. He's also the one who founded the group in 1993, and he writes the lyrics for the songs.

Want to know where Go Fish got their name? Well, they got it from the verse in the Bible where Jesus says, "Come, follow me and I will make you fishers of men". (Mark 1:17) And that's exactly what they're trying to do.

They have 8 CDs out so far. The last two were kids CDs, as the rest of them will be. They guys now write CDs for kids. But you need to understand that their definition of kids is anyone from the age of 3 to 90. So basically they're for everyone. Most of they're songs are Christian, but they make them funky and cool. And they do have some goofy songs to make it more fun.

A cappella

Go Fish is an a cappella trio. That's one of the things that makes them unique. Jamie Statema says, "After attending a concert with two a cappella groups, The Blenders and the Nylons, I discovered the base of the sound I was looking for and added loops and beats so it could be my own brand of music. The goal was to make the one CD that people of all ages could agree to play in the car. Doing just vocals and percussion was the thing I thought would work and it's rewarding to see the concept become a successful reality."


Well, that's about all I have to say. Thanks for visiting my site. I update frequently, so check back soon.
