The Kry is a Christian rock/worship band from Quebec City, Canada. They currently live in San Diego, California. The band consists of Jean-Luc Lajoie (vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, keyboards, some bass guitar) Yves Lajoie, (drums, percussion, and backing vocals), Nic Rodriguez (bass guitar), and Steve Marcia (electric guitar).

In addition to their invitational songs, ballads, rock music, and thought-provoking lyrics, they are also known for Cassie's Song. This song was inspired by the Columbine shootings and it looks to God for healing and an explanation, while encouraging believers to be steadfast at any cost.

The Kry has been featured at events such as Spirit West Coast and the Harvest Crusades. They also frequently play free concerts and lead worship on Wednesday nights at Maranatha Chapel in San Diego.

Although they tend to play a number of shows in Southern



California, they also do extensive touring. The Kry has toured in the United States and overseas, including Canada, Australia, England, France, Germany, Austria, Israel, Russia, Albania, Estonia, and Ireland.

Award Nominations

In 2000, for their "Let Me Say" album, The Kry was nominated by the Gospel Music Association to receive a Dove Award. The category was Recorded Music Packaging of the Year.

The Kry was nominated for three (formerly known as the Vibe awards). These nominations included “Group of the Year”, “Song of the Year” for “Holy Is Your Name” and “Praise and Worship Album of the Year.” The Shai awards are the Canadian version of the Dove awards.
