Caleb and Sol Rexius were born January 18, 1985 to Alan and Jenny Rexius. Sol was born 15 minutes prior to Caleb, and they weighed 8 lbs. 1 oz., and 8 lbs. respectively. Other than their mother playing the piano for church on Sundays, music was never a part of their upbringing. At a young age, they began to excel in athletics, and focused on Football and Track and Field. Competing in National Junior Olympics competitions, they both achieved all-American status in their respective events, and then transferred that speed to the football field during the fall time. In high school, they were league MVP's and combined for over 2,500 yards and 40 touchdowns in their senior year. In track and field, Sol was a state champion in both the 110 meter hurdles and the 300 intermediate hurdles. Caleb was all-state in all 4 of his events, 100m, 200m, Long Jump, and the 4x100 meter relay. They were then both invited to play football and run track for the University of Oregon. In their freshman redshirt year, together they were awarded scout team player of the week a total of 8 times throughout the 2003 season. During winter training, Caleb was awarded the ironman award calculated by strength to bodyweight ratios. In the spring of 2004, they decided to walk away from football and focus on Track and Field for the 2005 season before ending their athletic careers.
Caleb was married in August 2006 to Elizabeth Gerot, long-time friend since high school. Before pursuing a music career, Caleb and Betsie worked for Young Life at the Washington Family Ranch (formally known as Wildhorse Canyon).

Caleb And Sol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Be still and know that he is holy
Be still oh restless soul of mine
Bow before the prince of peace
Let the noise and clamor cease
Be still and know that he is god
Be still and know that he is faithful
Stand in awe and be amazed
And know that he will never change
Be still
Be still and know that he is god
Be still and know that he is god
Be still and know that he is god
Be still
Be speechless
Be still and know that he is god
Be still and know he is our father
Come rest your head upon his breast
Listen to the rhythm of
His unfailing heart of love
Beating for his little ones
Calling each of us to come
Be still
Be still
