Joseph Habedank Wins 4th Career GMA Dove Award
Chart-topping artist Joseph Habedank has won his 4th GMA Dove Award, earning the title of Inspirational Album of the Year for his 2024 release, autobiography. The singer/songwriter also delivered a dynamic performance of his hit single, âtell the devilâ during the award ceremony held at Allen Arena in Nashville, TN and broadcast on TBN.
The award-winning album, produced by Nick Schwarz (Cain, Drew Baldridge), Bernie Herms (Josh Groban, Natalie Grant) and David Leonard (Matthew West, MercyMe), is a sequenced musical journey through Habedankâs life.
The project embodies themes of faithfulness and grace through every mountain and valley of life; transforming incredibly personal events into stories that connect with listeners from every background and walk of life. Habedankâs soul-stirring vocals paired with songs from a stellar line up of co-writers such as Tony Wood, Michael Farren, Mitch Wong, and Cain, among others, birthed an album that has truly made its mark on Christian music.
âIâve found when youâre real, when youâre honest with people, and when you tell your own story, somehow people relate with it,â Joseph Habedank shared in an interview on the GMA Dove Awards red carpet. âOne of the biggest thing I want out of this record, is I want people to see Jesus in my story. Even though itâs my story, itâs really His story and what Heâs done in my life. This album is very personal, obviously, but really special to me and itâs been really cool to watch how it resonates with other people.â
This yearâs award Dove Award win marks the fourth time the honor has been bestowed on Habedank as a soloist, joining Change is Coming and Resurrection, which were both previously named Southern Gospel Album of the Year, as well as being named the 2020 Southern Gospel Artist of the Year.
The autobiography Fall Tour 2024 is currently in full swing, making stops in 30 cities across 13 states including Michigan, Missouri, Oklahoma, Georgia and many more!
