Guitar-powered prayers and mighty-lunged hosannas are all the rage in Christian rock right now, and Phil Wickham stands above the pack by virtue of his luminous, heart-tugging voice — one of the most distinct in the genre. Wickham’s unique singing style has a sensuous undercurrent that – combined with the reverent, almost childlike tone found by his lyrics – produces transfixing results. While much of his sound invites comparisons to U2 and Coldplay, Wickham’s signature is his compelling vocals that invoke emotion and heighten excitement. The past year saw the release of his latest recording, Heaven and Earth, and co-headlined tours with Leeland and Matt Maher.
