The three share an ensemble-minded approach: Caleb A supplements his stage work with a recorded catalog rooted in worship, Christian and hymn traditions and favors direct storytelling onstage; Jacob Ben-Shmuel provides rhythmic precision and steady stagecraft, while Sonya Balsara emphasizes clarity and ensemble awareness.
