1)Salvador is a Christian band that blends their Latin heritage and contemporary pop songwriting. The band formed in 1999 in Austin, Texas.
Over the past 10 years in which Salvador has toured throughout the country and at times outside of it, a fan base began to rapidly grow. According to the members of the group, no matter how huge the fan base gets, they are still surprised and grateful to be a part of that environment, and even more surprising to them is that their fans keep coming and supporting.
Not only has growth been among the fans, but also within the group as well. Adding to the existing members of Nic Gonzales (lead vocals and guitar), his cousin Josh Gonzales (bass and background vocals), Chris Bevins (co-producer and keyboards), and Jared Solis (trombone and saxophone), the band completes its family with brass man Edwin Santiago (trumpet and flugelhorn), Ben Cordonero (drummer) and Robert Vilera (percussionist) . Nic Gonzales calls the three men Salvador’s “valuable acquisitions.” Cordonero, a Nicaraguan from Miami, not only plays the drums but also traditional Latin percussion such as congas, timbales and bongos. Santiago is a Boricua – of Puerto Rican decent -who brings not only amazing talent but an unending work ethic as well. And Vilera, an established session player who’s worked with Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan and Celia Cruz (to name a few) also brings more of the sonido Latina to the music and, ultimately, their fan base.
What is it that sets this record apart from other Christian albums and even Salvador’s previous ones? Three words: horns and percussion. According to the producers of album 'Dismiss the Mystery', there is a greater reliance on horns and percussion to take an already existing tapestry of excellent vocals, rhythm and strings, to a higher level of excellence creating nuances and gravitas that exudes a timeless capability.
Regarding the future of Salvador’s ability to keep creating in the face of growth, change and an unstable marketplace, one thing is for certain: after seven years of hard work culminating with Dismiss the Mystery, it is impossible to dismiss their undeniable musicianship, and the only mystery left at this point is what can they possibly do next to top it.

Salvador Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not just a feeling, so much more to You
It's not just joy, it's not just peace
You're so much more than everything
And I can't find the reason
Why You take the time to hear me
And to fill my life with so much joy
As we take the time to lift up Your holy name
It's so much more than giving to me
It's more than You just meeting my needs
It's not just diamonds, not just pearls
More precious than anything in the world
So let my words be about You
Let me reflect the goodness and truth
Lord let my days bring honor and praise
As we lift our voice and sing, as we sing
These lyrics talk about how God is not just something we think about or feel on Sundays, but that He is so much more than that. He brings joy, peace, and goodness to our lives, and it's important to acknowledge this and give Him the praise and honor that He deserves.
The singer can't find a reason why God would take the time to hear and bless his life, but he knows that it's more than just material things like diamonds and pearls. It's something that is more precious than anything in the world, and he wants to reflect this truth in his words and actions.
This song encourages us to lift up God's name and thank Him for all that He has done for us. It reminds us that He is worthy of our praise and that we should strive to honor Him in everything we do.
