David Crowder, known professionally as Crowder, is an American Contemporary Christian music singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. Born on November 29, 1971, in Texarkana, Texas, Crowder first gained recognition as the lead vocalist of the David Crowder Band, a group that formed during his college years and gained a significant following through their innovative approach to Christian music and worship. The band’s impact was deeply felt in the realms of Christian worship and their legacy is marked by hits like "O Praise Him" and "How He Loves."

When the David Crowder Band disbanded in 2012, Crowder embarked on a solo career that has been marked by a diverse and genre-blending sound, incorporating elements of folk, rock, bluegrass, and electronica. His distinct musical journey as a solo artist has been chronicled in albums such as "Neon Steeple," "American Prodigal," and "I Know A Ghost." His more recent release, "Milk & Honey" and its deluxe edition, has brought forth a collection of songs reflecting themes of hope and redemption, with tracks such as "Good God Almighty" and "In The House" resonating with his audience. Additionally, Crowder has maintained a presence in the Christmas music scene, as exemplified by projects like "Milk & Cookies: A Merry Crowder Christmas." Known for his down-to-earth personality, poetically rich lyrics, and his bushy beard, Crowder continues to bridge the gap between traditional hymns and contemporary worship with authenticity and artistic integrity.
