Offering - a Richmond, VA-based acoustic rock band

Launching the listener on an acoustic rock journey, Offering engages its audience with a repertoire of songs which speak to the desperation and fragility of life interspersed with messages of hope reminiscent of groups such as U2, Lifehouse, and Switchfoot. Established in 1999, and headed by lead singer and founder Jeanine Guidry, Offering plays between 70-90 shows a year, mainly in the mid-Atlantic region.
The band plays in diverse venues such as festivals, coffee shops, restaurants, churches, and community events. In an effort to make music make a difference, Offering often sponsors food drives and community-enhancing efforts. With an acoustic rock sound anchored in guitar and piano, supplemented by strings, flute, and world percussion, Offering marries music, passion, and response to a difficult world.

Not everyone plays all the time - Offering has many different "faces" - from an acoustic four-piece to a basic rock band to a full rock band with strings and flute.
