Michael Tait's band ''Tait'' released ''Empty'' in July 2001, which was shortly followed by Kevin Max's ''Stereotype Be'' in August. Toby McKeehan, under the name ''tobyMac'', released an album named ''Momentum'' in November. Since then, tobyMac has released ''Re:mix Momentum'' (July 2003) and ''Welcome to Diverse City'' (October 2004), Tait has released ''Lose This Life'' (November 2003), and Kevin Max has released the independent ''Between the Fence and the Universe'' (2004).
