Dallas, TX — Ethan Kent is a new face in gospel, but he has been garnering much attention in the process of developing his musical career and preparing for his national debut release. His single “My Hope Is In Glory” reached the Top 30 BDS Gospel Radio chart this spring and is back in the Top 30 again. “‘My Hope Is In Glory’ is one of my favorite morning drive songs to play on air,” states Carter Garrett of WTOY Radio, Roanoke, VA. “It’s deeply rooted in the Word, and has a nice contemporary smooth beat!”

Ethan has an edge and freshness to his music artistry. Describing his sound would include tossing in a mix of genres including jazz, classical, soul and pop that is bound together by the contemporary sound of gospel.
