Wickham has been actively involved in spreading the news about the LIVE showcase by interacting with his listeners through written and video blogs on his website. The singer/songwriter continues to reach new levels in his career as he made his mark as the #74th “Top Watched Musician” on YouTube.com with his intimate acoustic performance of “Hallelujah”, which was recorded in his hotel room during a visit to Nashville, TN.

Wickham gave an outstanding performance singing his upcoming single “True Love” at the Gospel Music Association’s Dove Awards pre-show at the Grand Ole Opry on April 23rd where he received a standing ovation for his performance. He sang the same powerful song at INO’s acoustic showcase, April 21st at the Bourbon Street Blues Club in Printer’s Alley.

About Phil Wickham

Phil Wickham’s music has been called every flowery adjective in the thesaurus and some that may have even been made up. And while they are often accurate descriptions, they are at the same time distracting. When hearing these buzz words it’s too easy to lump an artist into a meaningless equation consisting of two musical references, a vague genre title and a classic predecessor. Welcome to the missing point.

The point is that Wickham is at his core a humble and sincere artist who writes songs and worships God using the medium of music. It is with that brush that he paints images of a loving and creative God across the canvases of listeners’ hearts and minds. Although the evidence of this gift was apparent on Wickham’s previous debut INO Records release as well as his self released independent record, it has never been clearer and more developed than on the twelve tracks off his sophomore Simple Records album Cannons. Wickham has toured with some of the industry’s most renowned artists including MercyMe and the David Crowder*Band.
