Singer and guitarist Craig Kambeitz joined forces with Gerry Patenaude (guitar), Brent Jones (bass), and Kyle Jones (percussion) to form the band Acoustic Love in the early '90s in the city of Nanaimo, on the east coast of Vancouver Island, Canada. They released their debut album, Soul Shine, independently in 1996, and received some airplay on Christian radio stations. The band dissolved in early 2000; Kambeitz continues to perform in the unique Nanaimo-based musical duo Ten Strings and a Bow. ~ Laurie Mercer
