Nathan Tasker Australian Christian Music Charts

June 21, 2008 – 7:28 pm

Nathan Tasker will be in concert at the First Baptist Church of Whitehouse on Sunday, June 22 during both the 8:30 and 11 a.m. services.

Named 2006 “Artist of the Year” and awarded “Song of The Year” (for Like You Love Me) by the Australian Christian Music Charts, Tasker is Australia’s premiere Christian artist.

His star rose to the top of Australian CCM, with six top 10 radio singles, including three consecutive number ones, affording him the opportunity to live and work in the United States

Tasker has spent the last two years touring the states and parts of the UK and Canada, sharing the hope of Jesus through music.

In concert and on disc, Tasker emerges as a storyteller. His songs cover many aspects of the human condition. But he is more than just a detached observer; he is an active and vulnerable participant.

“There is a need for people to respond to truth in a way that isn’t just about selling CDs,” Tasker said. “It’s about understanding life; it’s about engaging with a God who is real, a God who wants us to know him.”

His current albums include Must Be More (2005), produced in Nashville by Charlie Peacock, Scott Dente and Richie Biggs, And Prone To Wander (2007), also produced in Nashville and mixed in New York City with Ben Wisch.
