The Brilliance is an American music duo made up of David Gungor and John Arndt.
Brilliance is a noun form of the adjective brilliant, which commonly means extremely intelligent but can also mean outstanding, exceptional, or magnificent, as in a brilliant performance. These senses of brilliant are based on its more general meaning—shining brightly or sparkling. Bright sunshine can be described as brilliant in this way. Brilliance is a brand new facility currently under construction and in the finishing stages. As such, everything is new. He will have his own bedroom and bathroom. Everything one could ask for in such a facility is there, including a movie theater, workout facility, pool, and lounge. All of the staff I have met so far have been gracious.
History[edit]
David Gungor and John Arndt grew up together in Marshfield, Wisconsin.[1] They formed the band together in 2010. Gungor previously led worship services in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Arndt worked in Austin, Texas.[2] The two moved to New York City and Chicago.[2] David Gungor is the brother of Michael Gungor.[2]
The duo released a self-titled album, The Brilliance, on October 19, 2010.[3] They quickly followed it up with Advent, Vol. 1, on November 28, 2011.[4] In 2012, the duo released several albums. They released Lent, on February 29,[5]Advent, Vol. 2 on November 12,[6]Cavetime – A Worship Experience, on November 23,[7] and a live album titled The Road Recordings.[8] Subsequently, they made two more extended plays. They released Advent B Sides EP on December 2, 2013,[9] and the For Our Children EP, on December 2, 2014.[10]
The duo signed with Integrity Music, which released Brother, the duo's first studio album, on February 17, 2015.[11] The album charted on the BillboardChristian Albums chart at number 36.[12] On January 27, 2017, Integrity Music released All is Not Lost. The album peaked at number 20 on Billboard's Christian Albums chart and number 12 on Billboard's Heatseeker's chart on February 18, 2017.[13]
The Brilliance partnered with World Relief in their initiative to raise awareness for the DACA dreamers, which led to the first album in a series of 'Suites', a set of songs and pieces united by a theme. The Dreamer Suite was featured on Spotify's New Music Friday playlist.
The songs 'God Our Mother' and 'A Light' were also been featured on the God Our Mother[14] and A Light[15] albums by The Liturgists.
