We are happy to bring you a series of pics courtesy of worshipdrummer Josh Alltop (Instagram | Twitter). Josh is the drummer for Gateway Worship in Texas (think Kari Jobe, Ps. Robert Morris) and on 5-15-15 they recorded their latest live album, “Walls Are Comin’ Down.” Josh was very gracious and sent us some great pics all day long as they sound-checked and then kicked off the night.
