Biography
Mission Six is a teen rock band from Evansville, Indiana, United States, consisting of five members; Noah Daniel Hayden, age 16 (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Anthony Paul Barthel, age 17 (Guitar), Isaac Alling, age 16 (Keyboard, Background Vocals), Michael Francis Powers, age 16 (Bass, Background Vocals), and David Douglas Horner, age 16 (Drums). They currently tour and play shows across America and have also joined the iShine Live tour.
They attended the same Christian school in Evansville, Indiana, and played soccer together all the way back to the fifth grade when they decided to form a musical group. Their new goal, remarkable for a bunch of ten-year-olds, would be to encourage others by singing about the love of God.
In short order they landed a record deal. Since releasing its debut album Superhero in 2008, Mission Six has matured rapidly from a teen sensation to a legitimate rock band. On the way, they have performed hundreds of concerts, been featured on international television, garnered airplay on Radio Disney, and received CCM industry comparisons to Relient K and the Jonas Brothers.
These native Hoosiers have a huge heart for today’s kids and are the real deal with the release of their third record in four years. As a band they have influenced literally millions of pre-teen and teen fans around the world for Jesus. From Radio Disney to being mainstays on the annual i-Shine Live National tour and have grown into actors as their regular stint on the hit show, KNECT TV now in its third year. This authentically Christian boy band has quickly become all grown up.
But if you ask M6 about their greatest success thus far, and the topic will suddenly change back to changing other people’s lives. “We always share the gospel at our shows,” explains M6 frontman, Noah. “This past summer, we saw more than 300 kids ask Christ into their hearts. That’s… the coolest thing.”
