Bio
Since his introduction to the music world with his 1999 debut release album, Mercy, Darwin Hobbs has created a world wind of success that constantly expands the platform for his music and ministry. Darwin is a man in the midst of an incredible journey. His sincere transparency has allowed him to grow and carry his testimony to the masses. He was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio where he discovered at a young age that he had a phenomenal God-given gift for singing. He performed many times throughout his childhood and adolescence, in church and school, both as a soloist and in various ensembles. Darwin took a chance on his gift in the mid-1990’s when he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, Music City, to pursue a full-time career in music. His first gig as a session vocalist came about only weeks after moving to Nashville. From that moment on, word of Darwin’s presence in the city spread like wildfire. He became one of the most in-demand singers in Nashville. He began participating in numerous recording sessions with other artists like Michael W. Smith, Twila Paris, Michael Card, CeCe Winans, Michael McDonald, Donnie McClurkin, Jars of Clay, and countless others. Darwin’s gift of song has allowed him unlimited access to some of the most notable Christian and modern Gospel personalities. By his six-month anniversary in Nashville, Darwin began receiving requests to be a solo recording artist. The requests eventually led to his first EMI Gospel release, Mercy in 1999; followed by the 100,000-plus-selling Vertical in 2000, Broken in 2003 which yielded No. 1, and Worshipper in 2005. For his newest project, Champion, Darwin recently signed with iD Music Group, under the Universal Music Christian Group label of the Universal Music Group. Champion is slated to be released on June 8th. Darwin and his devoted wife, Traci, currently reside in Atlanta, Georgia.

Influences
....Michael Card, Michael W. Smith, Donnie McClurkin, Bebe/CeCe Winans, Luther Vandross, Tommy Sims, John Stevenson, and Jason Upton are people that have "influenced" me. But I also like and listen to many other artists like Deitrick Haddon, Josh Groban, Michael McDonald and Twila Paris. I am very into amazing background vocalist/session singers like Debbie Winans (one of the biggest "sleepers" in this industry..she's so cold blooded smooth), Angie Winans, Duwaune Starling, Tiffany Palmer-Bastiany (one of the baddest studio session singers in the world), LeAnne Palmore, Nadine Johnson, Rachel James, Janae Slack, Jerard and Jovaun Woods, Gale Mayes, Ann McCreary, D'adra and Steve Crawford (Anointed), Tim Davis (saaang white boy), Latrice Pace, Terry White, Angela Cruz, Michelle Pfitzer, Sha Simpson, Wendy Moten, "Mookie" Taylor, Chance Scoggins, Delores Cox, Lisa Bevill, Lisa Cochran, Michael Mellett, Joslyn Brockman (another sleeper), Kim Keyes, John Brockman, Keshia McFarland, Kevian "KB" Bateman, Darlene McCoy, Tangela Wright, Deirdra Coker, Kim Washington, Darryn Ray, Tabitha Fair, Daniel Johnson, Sheri Jones-Moffett, Tasha Cobbs (wow), Blanche McAllister-Dykes, Nirva Dorsaint-Ready, Cyndy Pasley, Stacy Campbell, Karima Kibble, Angie Primm, Demetria Slayden, Shondra Pennix. Most of these people I've worked with on sessions in Nashville. There is no place on earth that is better for meeting and working with class A singers. Don't sleep...I WILL BE BACK SOON!
