Personal Bios

Jeremy Cauble
(Vocals)

Born and raised in Winston-Salem, during my high school years, I played in the band yoU-turn that covered many popular songs of the day, including Third Day songs.  I grew to love their style of music and their interpretation of scripture into song, and I have followed their music ever since.  Having a heart for missions and outreach, both locally and abroad, I consider this event to be a prime opportunity for outreach to the community, and I believe that each person will be affected uniquely by this experience, each in his/her own way, allowing God to speak to them individually and bring the Truth to life.

My life was a whirlwind for quite some time. I spent time on the road with a sound company as well as playing guitar and bass in a few bands. I did all of the things that went along with the Rock scene. I ran from God for many years. Sometimes I wonder how I am still here. Little did I know that all the time I was running from God, He was preparing me for things like this. I am most comfortable serving behind the scenes, but God never asks us to do anything we cannot handle. Sometimes He has to knock me in the head but I usually get it….eventually.

The Passion Rock Opera
is another way to express
the message of the Cross.
The message of the Cross
never changes!
If you ever wondered or
never quite got it,
if rock and roll is your music
of choice,
this might be in a language
you can understand,
this might be exactly
what you have needed!

Ward Page
(Keyboards)

A Winston-Salem native, I have been active in the community for most of my life with my church home at College Park Baptist Church.  I have offered my musical talents on the bass guitar and vocals in the youth outreach praise band, yoU-turn, and have been involved in numerous musical groups throughout my high school and undergraduate experiences, as well as being a current member of College Park's adult praise band (APB) while studying at Wake Forest University's School of Divinity.  My passion for music is matched only by my passion for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and I have worked hard to educate people in my ministry about the amazing love that God expresses to each of us.

(Drums, percussion)

I can’t really remember my life without music!  I began playing in rock bands at age 11, and have been connected to a band, or music, ever since. In high school I played in a band called Crickle Wood Greene; in college with a local band named Factor Zero; in grad school, I toured with Daybreak while producing a nationally syndicated radio rock show, and worked as a studio musician.  As a father of two, I’ve tried to stress the value of music in personal expression, and my son has continued in the “family business” of percussion/drumming.  For the last several years APB has been an important part of my ministry, as we seek to make the timeless message of Jesus relevant to every generation!  The Passion Rock Opera is the latest and most exciting effort to allow music to tell the story of the Creator and His awesome love for us!
