With over 45 Dove awards, three Grammy awards, and an American Music award, Michael W. Smith has forever enshrined his mark in the music history books. Smith garnered yet another Grammy nod last Friday with a nomination for ‘Best Contemporary Christian Music Album’ for his latest worship effort, ‘Surrounded.’ Dubbed ‘35 Years of Friends: Celebrating The Music of Michael W. Smith,’ music lovers will experience over 35 artists, from all genres, performing a set list to include many of Smith’s 35 #1 hit singles. In addition, 2018 marks the 35th Anniversary of Smith’s Top 10 single “Friends,” which helped introduce his music to both secular and non-secular audiences. Smith once again shared the song with the world when he performed it at the Washington, D.C. memorial service for his dear friend, President George H.W. Bush, last Wednesday.

Gaither Gospel Series: Recorded at Pinebrook Studios, Alexandria, Indiana

Cruise with the Gaither Homecoming family across Alaska’s Inside Passage in this unique concert experience aboard the MS Zaandam. An outdoor concert, featuring gospel music’s finest voices, honors our Maker and celebrates some of His most marvelous handiwork. Then your host, Bill Gaither, reveals some candid, off-stage moments as the Homecoming family shares good food, good stories, lots of laughs and of course, music!

A welcoming audience of Australian friends, the beautiful backdrop of Sydney during its spring season, and an unforgettable evening of music make this one of the most memorable musical events in the history of the Homecoming series.

The Gaither Homecoming Tour celebrates its 10th anniversary in a big way by capturing all the sounds and excitement of a concert-in-the-round on video in Live From Toronto.This one-of-a-kind event showcases performances by the Gaither Vocal Band, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, Russ Taff, Jessy Dixon and many more!

In a city known for its jazz and its blues, the Homecoming Friends share the gospel with New Orleans concertgoers. As these southern saints go marching in to the Saenger Performing Arts Center, a landmark listed on the National Register of Historic Places, familiar Homecoming faces and some new faces bring good news to those who have the blues.

Passin' the faith along are the Florida Boys, who mark 50 years together, Larry Gatlin, one country music's top talents, The Steeles, one of the newest additions to country gospel and the energetic Roy Lewis with the Lewis Family. Finding that faith is a hard secret to keep, the Homecoming Friends are "helping to build the faith of another" on a brand new video from the Indiana Roof Ballroom in Indianapolis.

The Homecoming Friends share songs that serve as a compass for the journey. This video features a range of songs, everything from Randy Travis' "Feet On The Rock" to a saxophone medley with Boots Randolph to the Don Francisco classic, "He's Alive." Helping us deliver truth and hope into the trenches are Alicia Williamson, Russ Taff, Sarah DeLane and Ivan Parker. Also captured on this video, taped at the Indiana Roof Ballroom, are our beloved friends, Jake Hess, Hovie Lister and the Happy Goodmans.

Join Bill and Gloria Gaither and their Homecoming Friends as they travel north to Toronto for a Canadian Homecoming. You'll love this toe-tapping, uplifting and exciting concert-in-the-round experience, taped before a sold-out audience in Toronto's Air Canada Centre!

It's been the scene of concerts by the Clash, U2, the Dave Matthews Band, and many other secular musical acts, so the natural outdoor amphitheatre of Colorado's Red Rocks was perhaps overdue a visit from the prolific and decidedly non-secular Gaither Family, whose HOMECOMING series has been a fixture of both the Christian movement and the Billboard charts for many years. Their Red Rocks foray follows the form of the classic Gaither manifestation-the family hosts performances by longtime favorites such as Wesley Pritchard, whose "I Never Shall Forget the Day" is a particular highlight, and Donnie Sumner, who contributes a delicate, moving "The Anchor Holds." As a celebration of traditional religious values, the HOMECOMING series is perhaps unequalled in contemporary worship music. RED ROCKS HOMECOMING is a fine example of the Gaither Family and its satellite members doing what they do best--singing simple, unadorned, traditional songs of praise.

Award-winning Southern gospel performers Bill and Gloria Gaither welcome friends to a picnic in this installment of their ongoing Homecoming series. Friendly conversation, games and, of course, plenty of music are all part of the fun. Nineteen songs include "Farther Along," "I Heard It First on the Radio," "What a Day That Will Be" and "He Pilots My Ship." Guests include Michael English, TaRanda Greene, the Booth Brothers, Jim Hill and more.
