Phil Wickham
Phil Wickham is slated to headline this year’s “Air1 Worship Now Tour” fresh off the release of his new studio album, “Song of the Saints,” arriving Sept. 12, 2025. The modern-day hymn writer is sure to intersperse fresh selections, like “What An Awesome God” and “The King Is In The Room,” among timeless favorites like “Living Hope” and “House of the Lord.” The son of a worship pastor, Wickham honed his musical gifts at church from an early age, leading worship for his youth group when he was just a teen. Since being discovered by MercyMe frontman Bart Millard and touring with the veteran band early in his career, the SoCal native has grown to become one of the foremost lyricists of this generation, garnering numerous chart-topping hits and accolades, including nine GMA Dove Awards and three GRAMMY® nominations. Wickham has four children and resides in Encinitas, California, right outside of San Diego.

Josh Baldwin
Josh Baldwin served as a worship pastor for a decade in his native North Carolina before spreading his musical wings and moving his family to Redding, California. While he continued leading worship on the West Coast, Baldwin also began spending more time recording and touring as a solo artist. Originals like “Stand In Your Love,” “Evidence” and a notable collaboration with David Leonard, “Every Hour,” paved the way for his biggest song to date, “Made For More,” which went on to earn Baldwin the first No. 1 of his career. Now living in a suburb of Nashville, the father of two will unveil a five-track EP, “Full Grown Man, Vol. 1,” Sept. 5, 2025.

Charity Gayle
Growing up in Buffalo, New York, Charity Gayle was surrounded by music all the time, given that her mom was the choir director at the church her family attended. Gayle eventually chased her love of music all the way to Nashville, where she perfected her songwriting craft. The independent artist rose to prominence after recording a well-known version of “I Speak Jesus.” Although she didn’t write the song, she’s helped carry the powerful anthem around the globe. Since then, her original selections, “Thank You Jesus For The Blood” and “I Believe,” have continued to introduce Gayle’s organic, authentic praise to a wider audience. She currently resides in Houston, Texas, where she and her husband, fellow singer-songwriter Ryan Kennedy, are the leaders of GatherHouse, a 24-hour prayer and worship movement.
