IN THIS EPISODE
Keith Getty
Keith Getty is a modern hymn writer. In re-inventing the traditional hymn form, Keith and his wife Kristyn have created a distinguished catalogue of songs teaching Christian doctrine and crossing genres by connecting the world of traditional and classical composition with contemporary and globally-accessible melodies.
The Gettys' songwriting journey began in 2000 when Keith wrote the tune for "In Christ Alone" on the back of a Northern Ireland Electricity bill. Many songs, albums, and—most importantly—four daughters later, they still wake up each morning amazed that they get to spend their days crafting melodies and words to encourage and inspire the people of God. They established Getty Music with a view to the year 2050 in the hope that individuals, families and churches would celebrate the beauty of Christ-centered hymnody.
The Gettys have recorded 26 albums together and garnered a GRAMMY® nomination. They founded their record label and publishing company, Getty Music, as well as their Getty Music Foundation, which helps educate and spread biblical worship globally.
