Musically, I seem to gravitate to epic, hard rock that is infused with loops and beats. Bands like: Red, Demon Hunter, Family Force 5, Underoath, 30 seconds to Mars, (old) Linkin Park.
There have also been slower, meaningful songs that I have shed a tear to more than once (yes, I have a sensitive side!!!) Those are songs like: "Everything" by Lifehouse, "Jesus Blood" by Delirious, "Hosanna" by Hillsong United, "Come Awake" by David Crowder, "The Need to Feel Alive" by Forever Changed, "All Around Me" by Flyleaf, "Much Afraid" by Jars of Clay, "Pieces" by Red, "Learning to Breathe" by Switchfoot, "Some Will Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape, by Underoath
The other thing that I am very passionate about is producing music. A producer is the person that takes the best of what you have musically to the next level. Producing is how great songs become memorable songs! Some of the producers I love (and would hopefully be able to work with) are: Don Gilmore, Howard Benson, Toby Mac, James Wisner, Mike Shinoda, Travis Wyrick.

"TRANSFORMED IS DYNAMITE!"
tim alan, (iLife tv)
"I REALLY THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MODERN CHRISTIAN ALBUMS I'VE HEARD"
jay carrero (contagious, warner brothers)
The highly anticipated album "Transformed" by Jason Sweet released on December 12, 2006. Since then he has had #1 hits on radio stations and websites around the U.S as well as the UK. Jason Sweet's inspirational lyrics and soothing voice accompanied with his pure instrumental talent take you on a emotional ride throughout the entire cd. It's an epic story about two people, taking you through a walk of transformation that only Jesus Christ can bring. The anticipation of the story that follows the songs will keep anyone, beyond a doubt, at the edge just waiting to hear more of this powerful album, Transformed.

Music is the avenue to the heart!
This is where it all begins for Jason Sweet.
The most important aspect in writing his music is for the listener to take a personal interest in each song, almost as if he wrote it specifically for them.
The genre he holds dear to is "Personal Worship".
This music is not necessarily for congregational worship, but more for individual worship. These are the times when you're in your car, alone in your bedroom, and other moments like this when it's just you and God. It's a chance for you to pour your heart out to your Creator.
So please take these songs and adopt them as your own. Let this be the chance for a new start with the Savior that has always loved you!
Jason has been a performer, songwriter and worship leader for over 8 years! He has had the opportunity to share his music and ministry with thousands of people across the US. Jason currently attends First Baptist Orlando, where he leads worship for a few of their ministries.
Some of the National Artists Jason has performed with:
- Third Day
- Tenth Avenue North
- Decyfer Down
- Blindside
- Downhere
- Contagious
