The Champion and His Burning Flame is a Christian art-collective located in Nashville, Tennessee. It was founded in July of 2007 by Trevor Nyman and David Arnold; formerly of the band "Quiet, KY". Their initial project consisted in a collection of low-fi musical recordings over the summer of 2007. Later joined by Jeremy Flick and Tim Twinem, the group released a six-song E.P. entitled "the French EP" in August of 2008. The musical stylings are rooted in indie-rock, but also include more melodic and experimental tendencies; i.e. hand clapping, chamber vocals etc. Initially focused on rock music, the collective has a primary goal of manifesting themes of Christian redemption through artistic expression.

Name The group's name is metaphor for the christian experience. "The Champion..." signifying the sense of identifying one's self with a particular cause; as in the sentence, "Dr. King was a champion for civil rights". "...and His Burning Flame" representing the presence of the Spirit with each individual believer and the collection of individuals in which Christ's death finds its truest expression; the church.
