praise band
Church music group
A praise band is a musical group that leads worship at Christian church services, typically performing contemporary Christian music with guitars, drums, keyboards, and vocals rather than traditional hymns with organ or piano.
The term reflects the evangelical and charismatic traditions where music centers on praising God: The praise band opened with three songs before the sermon.
