The Common Cup Company is a musical group featuring Gordon Light & Ian Macdonald, composers of popular hymns Draw The Circle Wide, She Flies On (She Comes Sailing On The Wind) and River Run Deep (River Running In You & Me).

This musical ministry began when Light (an Anglican Priest and later Bishop), Macdonald (a United Church Minister) along with founding members Jim Uhrich, and Bob Wallace (also United Church Ministers) served at neighbouring churches in the early '80's.

In the following decades the group wrote, performed, & recorded together despite living in different corners the country. Scott McDonald & Richard Betts joined the original quartet on bass & drums in the late '90's.

The group suffered a tremendous loss when Jim Uhrich died in 2009, but The Comon Cup continues to perform with Lloyd Maclean on keyboards, and plans to begin recording a new album this Summer.
