CHRIS RENZEMA
For Chris Renzema, becoming an artist was something that happened slowly, but inevitably. Growing up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, he was always drawn to writing and playing songs, even though the local music scene was small. In 2015, he moved to Nashville to pursue music full time, beginning a journey defined by patience, consistency, and steady growth.
Since then, Renzema has released a body of work that blends indie rock, folk, and contemporary Christian influences with thoughtful, introspective songwriting. His debut full length album I’ll Be The Branches arrived in 2018, followed by Let the Ground Rest in 2020 and Get Out of the Way of Your Own Heart in 2021. Each release marked a deeper exploration of faith, doubt, and the human experience.
Chris’ most recent project, Manna, represents a culmination of everything he has built so far. Recorded at Nashville’s Sound Emporium, the album wrestles honestly with big spiritual questions while remaining deeply personal and accessible. The record has been widely recognized, earning multiple GMA Dove Award nominations and winning Rock and Contemporary Album of the Year, marking Chris’ first Dove Award win.
The connection between artist and audience is a space where Renzema thrives! Since beginning regular touring in 2019, Renzema has built a devoted fan base and headlined Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium twice, in addition to performing at iconic venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Known for his dynamic and emotionally resonant live shows, Chris continues to establish himself as a compelling and distinctive voice on record and on stage.
