Maranatha! Music began as an outreach of
Calvary Chapel[?]. The
Jesus People[?] of the late
1960s and early
1970s began to write new
hymns and worship songs with a
folk rock style. Maranatha! Music was founded at this time in order to publish and promote this new type of
Christian music.
The first "Maranatha bands" were recorded in Buddy King's small home studio in Huntington Beach, Some of these early groups were; "Love Song" ,"Children Of The Day", "The Way" and "Mustard Seed Faith".
