Knapp’s storied career began in the Christian Music Industry in 1994. After a meteoric rise to #1, critical and commercial success, and with a considerable fan base, she walked away in 2003. After a seven-year hiatus she returned with a renewed passion for music showcased in her 2010 album Letting Go. Set Me Free followed in 2014 on Righteous Babe Records in conjunction with a memoir, Facing the Music: My Story, published by Simon & Schuster. The 2017 release Love Comes Back Around, produced by Viktor Krauss, pairs her fearless songwriting and strong, expressive voice with Americana style rootsy arrangements.
A true Renaissance woman, Knapp recently completed a master’s degree in Theological Studies at Vanderbilt Divinity School and continues to advocate for LGBTQ people of faith through her non-profit organization Inside Out Faith.
Thunder and Rain's sound lives somewhere in between folk, country, bluegrass, and pop, made cohesive by frontwoman Erinn Peet-Lukes' "nimble, yet devastating" vocals, heartfelt lyricism and a high level of musicianship from all members of this progressive outfit.
Thunder and Rain formed when Lukes began to explore bluegrass jams in the Denver area, where she met the original three members of the group. Thunder and Rain recorded their first record, Holler Out, in 2014.
After their first full-length release, the band toured across the US, Canada, Ireland and the UK. They were finalists in the Rockygrass Band Competition in 2014 and named #1 Bluegrass band by the Denver Westword in 2016. Their viral YouTube cover of Sweet Child o’ Mine brought the band’s music to a worldwide audience.
Thunder and Rain released their third album, Passing in the Night, January 2020. The album was written after Peet-Lukes went through a break up with one of the band’s founding members. The pandemic thwarted plans to tour on the heels of that record, and the group went on hiatus. The quintet plans to reunite for upcoming shows and festival spots in late 2022-2023.
