Biographie

Emerging victorious after one of the most spiritually and emotional challenging seasons of his life and career, six time Grammy Award winner Israel Houghton launches his third decade as a recording artist with an empowering single that speaks to his faith in the Lord’s relentless pursuit of those who have gone temporarily astray – and the divine love which will stop at nothing to bring His children back home. Bringing the depth of his own experience at the spiritual crossroads to every impassioned note, his fresh, soulfully transcendent re-imagining of Cory Asbury’s #1 Billboard hit “Reckless Love” takes it to a whole new heart-penetrating realm. Immediately upon its March 2018 release, Houghton’s version topped Billboard’s Gospel Digital Tracks chart. As the leader and visionary force behind the globally acclaimed ensemble and ministry organization Israel & New Breed, the gospel legend has written or co-written some of the most widely sung praise and worship songs of the era, including the GMA Dove Award winning hits “Again I Say Rejoice,” “Not Forgotten,” “Turn It Around,” “Say So” and “The Power of One (Change the World).” While Houghton rarely records the compositions of other artists, Asbury’s song impacted and lifted him the same way Chris Tomlin’s “Our God” did when the singer chose to record it for his groundbreaking 2010 solo album LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE: THE LONDON SESSIONS, which won a Dove Award and a Grammy award for “Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album.”
