Shane Barnard
Christianity began to play an active role in the life of Barnard when he was in ninth grade, when he began to attend a Bible church youth group. He began leading worship soon thereafter. During his junior year as a student at Texas A&M University, Barnard began a recording career.
Prior to joining Everett, Barnard teamed up with friend Caleb Carruth to release an album. Entitled "Salvation Still Remains", it was released in limited numbers. Barnard and Carruth were rumored to have recorded the album in only two days due to the fact they had to pay for studio time themselves and wanting to make the most of it. Family and friends brought them sandwiches and drinks through out the process. Barnard and Carruth later agreed to end their partnership amicably, stating "they were just moving in different directions".
Shane married CCM singer Bethany Dillon on March 29, 2008.
Shane Everett
Everett was born in Dallas, Texas and later moved to Garland, a nearby suburb. Everett also attended Texas A&M University. After playing in a bar band, 4D2, one night Everett experienced an encounter with God which led him to Central Baptist Church, where he became a Christian. Shortly thereafter, he met Barnard, and became part of a weekly student-led praise and worship service at Texas A&M.
The band originally began with Barnard performing solo acts, but Everett increasingly played a major role in his performances. With the release of their 2003 album, entitled Carry Away, the band became officially known as Shane & Shane.

Taylor later went full time with the David Crowder Band, and is now back with Shane & Shane.

Liberty
Shane & Shane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is Liberty, there is Liberty
For freedom he set me free, and yes I am free indeed,
He rewrote me my name unshackled my chains he opened my eyes to see I am free.
He has one the storm rolled in,
The son of man was crucified.
The song "Liberty" by Shane & Shane is a declaration of one's freedom in Christ. The lyrics suggest that where the Lord is, there is freedom or liberty. The song emphasizes that Jesus Christ has set believers free from the bondage and chains of sin. The song starts by stating that where the spirit and the Lord is, there is liberty. The freedom that the song talks to is the freedom that Christians receive when the Holy Spirit enters their lives after receiving Christ as their savior.
The second verse talks about how Christ has set believers free from sin and its bondage. The lyrics state that Christ has rewritten their name and unshackled their chains. The imagery used is that of a prisoner being set free from captivity. The vocals in this part are high-pitched, emphasizing the joy and enthusiasm that comes with one's freedom from sin. The last verse talks about Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross, where he won the battle over sin and death. The storm refers to the spiritual and physical pain that Jesus endured while being crucified, but through his death and resurrection, believers have been set free from sin's grip.
