Chris Tomlin and Erica Campbell, who serves as half of the gospel duo Mary Mary, have been tapped as hosts of the upcoming 53rd Annual GMA Dove Awards to be held in Nashville on Oct. 18.
“What an honor it is to co-host this years Dove Awards alongside Erica Campbell,” shares Tomlin. “I have been fortunate enough to attend the Doves for many years and each time I am reminded of the power of a song. I have always said songs are like arrows out of a bow… you never know how far they will go, how far they will reach, and how God is going to use them. I’m so excited to have the opportunity to celebrate not only the incredible artists, but also all the writers, producers, musicians, and teams that work passionately to create something that truly has an eternal impact.”
“So honored to be a part of Christian and Gospel music‘s biggest night,” Campbell adds. “Let’s bring healing to this broken world, and encourage us all in the process to keep sharing the gospel! I’m so excited to host this year’s Dove Awards alongside Chris Tomlin. This is going to be great!”
Tomlin, a Grammy award-winner, has racked up 17 No. 1 singles, sold 12 million albums with 5.6 billion career streams, and won three Billboard Music Awards and 27 Dove Awards.
