Read More Nashville-based, Christian songsmith Thunderstorm Artis will unveil his latest single, “Scared To Love” on October 23rd, a powerful song about finding your "person." Thunderstorm is a brilliant artist, and was second runner-up on season 18 of The Voice. Since then, he’s been releasing singles and sharing stages with the likes of Train, Jewel, and recently, providing opening support for the Zac Brown Band.
Thunderstorm has dedicated much of his life to working in ministry, and his songs are an expression of his faith, where he’s been, and who he strives to be. “There’s a lot in the text of Christianity about letting go of what doesn’t belong, and stepping into the person you’re truly meant to be,” he says.
He’s released a few other singles this year - another song deeply informed by his faith, “Stand Up Eight” arrives as a bold and urgent anthem - “The idea of falling down seven times and standing up eight comes from the Scriptures,” he says. “It’s about how no matter how much life knocks you down, you’ve got to have the strength to keep getting back up.”In February, People Magazine premiered his song “Surprise,” a Valentine’s tribute to his wife.
In bringing his latest output to life, he worked in Los Angeles with producers John Alagia (NEEDTOBREATHE, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real) and Jesse Siebenberg (Lissie, Blue Sky Riders) and in Nashville with producer Dan Agee (Jessie James Decker, The Cains). Spotlighting the stunning range of his voice more fully than ever before, each song matches his nuanced reflection with a newly expanded sound.
Thunderstorm, from a family of professional musicians, began writing at 13 to process the pain of his father's sudden death. Raised on everything from jazz to country to classic soul singers like Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye, he immersed himself in sharpening his songcraft and soon began touring extensively with his older brother, acclaimed singer/songwriter Ron Artis II. He released his debut EP Haunted released in 2018, and has become a mainstay at Wanderlust festivals throughout North America.
