JOSEPH HABEDANK
Artist Biography
Christian music artist Joseph Habedank is a two-time GRAMMY® nominated, three-time GMA Dove Award winning, and six-time fan-voted Soloist of the Year. Joseph has a powerful testimony of recovery from drug addiction that has been featured on FoxNews.com's Spirited Debate, TBN’s Praise the Lord, and in such publications as Billboard Magazine, CCM Magazine, and Glenn Beck’s The Blaze. He has shared his songs in some of America's greatest churches and venues, including the Brooklyn Tabernacle, Charles Stanley’s First Baptist Atlanta, The Grand Ole Opry, and the historic Ryman Auditorium. On the heels of his critically-acclaimed debut solo release, Welcome Home, he was awarded New Soloist of the Year in 2014. His sophomore release, Resurrection, was the first album released by a solo artist to receive the GMA Dove Award for Southern Gospel Album of the year and garnered his first GRAMMY® nomination for Roots Gospel Album of the year. His 2019 release, Deeper Oceans, was nominated for Southern Gospel Album of the Year at the 50th Annual GMA Dove Awards and earned him a second GRAMMY® nomination for Roots Gospel Album of the year. Deeper Oceans also includes two number one songs, "Shame On Me" and "Goliath”.
Joseph’s most recent album, Change Is Coming, features two #1 songs, "Religion Isn't Working" and "Child of the King," and was awarded Southern Gospel Album of the Year at the 2021 GMA Dove Awards. Since its release in 2021, Joseph has had the privilege of carrying the message of these songs all across the country, proclaiming the hope that is greater than addiction, the relationship that far exceeds religion, and that Jesus is the change... and Change Is Coming.
