Chris Tomlin biography

Chris Tomlin is another Christian rock act who plays to thousands gig after gig. Born in America 1972 Chris is the saviour of Christian rock.

His sound is Christian orientated, but his songs sound close to One Direction, Ed Sheeran - that slow uplifting X factor type music. Of course it's uplifting, the guy sings about how great God is!

'Worthy of all praise' Chris Tomlin continues to light the Christian torch with his moving music. He doesn't mess around with metaphorical nonsense, he says it how it is. 'How Great is Our God,' and 'Jesus Loves Me,' exemplify his no-nonsense lyrics and uplifting, mind-blowing music.

He created his first glorified piece of work in 1995 and it truly kick started his song writing juices. The ball was now well in motion. 13 albums later and the guys is still producing the best work out there in the Christian rock scenes. He has even recorded live albums of his work. Live albums really showcase an artist's passion and ability and Chris has at least 17 live albums in his discography.

A heart of an angel and a voice of a God, Chris Tomlin is music's answer to Jesus! And you can catch him on tour singing his spiritually centred songs. He must be knackered because he plays countless concerts year after year with the same amount of passion and delivery as his last. A wonderful man and a credit to Christians all over the world.

Live reviews

Both my husband and I are big fans of Chris Tomlin and his music is often played at our local Christian Social Groups. So last year I decided to buy us both some tickets and treat ourselves to a nice little anniversary night out. It was one of the best we have ever had!

We both had such a great time. Chris was awesome on stage. He came out wearing a blue t-shirt and a black leather jacket and a nice black hat to go with it. I remember loving watching him play the guitar while he was singing. So talented. And, his voice is amazing!

The stage looked really nice too. It was lit up with all sorts of lights, different colors and flashing/beaming around all over. The crowd was really great to. We were pretty much all standing the whole time. And, his music makes you want to dance.

My husband and I got in a few good dances that night, it was a really nice and romantic setting. And, the music that was playing seemed to fit that too. It was really nice. We're actually looking forward to seeing him again. But, unfortunately he hasn't been close enough to were we live to pick up tickets.. keeping our fingers crossed tho! Would recommend to anyone who likes good music!
