Fans of Southern Gospel music may remember Danny Riddle as a young artist in that field. He definitely had success in it, while also embarking on a radio career that saw him host the successful syndicated Gospel Music show "Reach Out", that was on air for 11 years. His new recording once again sees him plowing new ground, while trying to change lives via his ministry.

At the young age of eleven years old, Danny Riddle began a journey,
a journey into the field of music ministry. Then, at the age of fifteen,
after a bad experience with the church music director, his life started to unravel.
Instead of giving in to despair, Danny Riddle prayed a simple prayer:
“God, if you will give me a voice, I will sing for you.”
God answered that prayer and the doors quickly began to open for
this young teenager striving to share the Gospel in song.

By his sixteenth birthday, he had already recorded his first single,
which received extensive airplay throughout his home state of Florida.
Following a guest appearance on a radio program, he was offered the opportunity
to host a Gospel Music radio show. He faithfully accepted the challenge.
The show was called “Reach Out.” This radio show was on the air for more
than eleven years and was syndicated to several different
radio stations across the country.

In his late twenties, Danny decided to leave the Christian Music industry
to pursue other goals in life. A friend talked him into re-releasing several of
his earlier recordings on CD. God began once again to work in Danny’s life.
He later released “Old Time Religion,” a collection of many old-time hymns that
Danny had always dreamed of recording.

Since then, Danny has released several recordings, including the projects,
“In a Different Light", “You Raise Me Up” and
the most recent recording "Here Today".

“I want my music, and more importantly my life, to inspire others to pursue
a sincere relationship with the Lord,” Danny says. When all is said and done,
he wants to be remembered as “the boy who sang his songs for Jesus Christ.” Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
