With multiple GRAMMY and Dove Awards - and over 10 million albums sold - Gospel Music Hall of Fame and Hard Rock inductees Petra are undoubtedly the most successful artists in Christian Rock history.

Ushering in an entire genre, and paving the way for bands like Skillet, Switchfoot, Creed, Reliant K and many others, Petra became the first band in their genre to break into the music mainstream.

With a sound comparable to Foreigner, Styx and Kansas, Petra in the 80s stood as equals to their 'mainstream' arena rock compatriots.

In a career spanning four decades, 4-time GRAMMY winners Petra have seen a long string of radio hits, with over 10 million album sold. Along the way, they forged the way for a generation of faith-based bands like Switchfoot, The Fray, Skillet, Creed and countless others.

Drawing comparisons to Foreigner, Kansas, Journey and REO Speedwagon, Petra emerged in the mid-80s to crossover prominence, becoming the first band in their genre to be inducted into both Hard Rock and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
