Isla Vista Worship

Isla Vista Worship is a family and collective of musicians, artists, and worshippers whose passion is to express their love and worship to King Jesus with a simple child-like faith and desire to see Heaven come to earth through creative expression. They live in Isla Vista, CA, a college town, and exist to declare the goodness of God and the love he has for all of His kids through every tragedy and triumph. Isla Vista Worship has been writing songs, growing alongside the local church community and running after the heart of the Father for the city. Through the years, the songs they’ve written as a community, and the ones that spontaneously erupt from our worship nights in their living rooms and garages, have spread like wildfire throughout the world. They believe that God has placed a very specific culture of worship in Isla Vista, and that culture has, by the grace of God, impacted the nations.
