ABOUT FRED HAMMOND
For over three amazing decades, singer/songwriter/producer/musician Fred Hammond has been a gospel music arbiter, consistently pushing the genre into new melodic territory. The Detroit native ascended from bass-playing sideman for The Winans; to founding member of the trendsetting sextet Commissioned; to creating the further renowned ensemble Radical for Christ, to becoming a highly influential solo artist and producer in his own right. Unforgettable songs such as “Blessed,” No Weapon,” “King of Glory,” “Celebrate (He Lives),” “Let the Praise Begin” and more have lifted the spirits of millions both cross-culturally and cross-generationally. His 1998 release PAGES OF LIFE: CHAPTERS 1 & 2 is a double platinum-seller and his award wins over the years have recognized his excellence in all areas upfront (Best Male Vocalist, Best Album and Best Song) as well as behind the scenes (for songwriting and producing). Fred Hammond is the recipient of multiple Stellar and Dove Awards and received a GRAMMY® Award for Best Contemporary R&B Gospel Album for FREE TO WORSHIP.
