Matt Redman
Matt Redman is a worship leader and prominent CCM singer/songwriter whose uplifting rock- and pop-oriented songs have brought him global success. Active since the mid-'90s, he first broke out with 2002's Where Angels Fear to Tread. Over the next decade, his career flourished as he moved from his native England to the U.S.; in 2005 he won the first of numerous Dove Awards for his song "Blessed Be Your Name." His best-known song, "10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)," off the 2011 album 10,000 Reasons, became a massive hit. The single topped the U.S. Christian charts in 2012 and earned the singer a pair of Grammy Awards. Redman's next two releases, the 2013 live set Your Grace Finds Me and 2015's Unbroken Praise: At Abbey Road Studios, were also chart-toppers. He entered the next decade with another concert album, 2020's Let There Be Wonder, followed in 2023 by the studio set Lamb of God.
Born and raised in the town of Watford in Hertfordshire, England, Redman became a converted Christian at the age of ten. Drawn to music in his teens, he learned to play the guitar, and by age 20 had helped found the Soul Survivor movement with evangelist Mike Pilavachi. Between 1993 and 2000, Redman recorded five independent albums of guitar-driven Christian rock while serving as worship leader at the Soul Survivor Church in Watford. During a sabbatical in the U.S., he recorded his breakout sixth album, Where Angels Fear to Tread, which became his first to enter Billboard's Top Christian Albums chart, peaking at number 38. Co-written with his wife, Beth Redman, one of its tracks, "Blessed Be Your Name," eventually became a hit after it was covered by the South African group Tree63. Redman re-recorded a version of it on the 2005 compilation album Blessed Be Your Name: The Songs of Matt Redman, Vol. 1, and it earned a GMA Dove Award for Worship Song of the Year. Building on this momentum, he joined the roster of Atlanta-based Six Steps Records and released two more studio albums, each of which crossed over onto the pop charts. By this point, he had added several more Dove Awards to his credit and authored a number of books on Christianity.
Redman's greatest success came in 2011 with the release of the chart-topping "10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)," a worship ballad that has since become a staple of Christian music. Included on his album 10,000 Reasons, the song went double platinum and won two Grammy Awards. With his increased visibility, Redman's label, the Universal-owned Sparrow Records, issued a 2012 anthology of his previous work and partnered with sixstepsrecords to release his 2013 live album Your Grace Finds Me and the 2015 studio album Unbroken Praise: At Abbey Road Studios, both of which hit number one on the U.S. Christian chart. The latter album also made the pop chart in the U.K., giving him his highest-ever placement there at number 58. After the 2016 holiday set These Christmas Lights and 2017's Glory Song, Redman switched to the Integrity label for 2020's live album Let There Be Wonder and its companion studio set, Let There Be Wonder (Acoustic).
Now based in California, he launched a podcast with fellow worship artist Jeremy Riddle called Redman & Riddle. He returned to studio work in 2023 with Lamb of God, his 14th album.
