Биография

Billy Ballenger’s story reads like a movie script. He truly believes the greatest story anyone could ever tell is their testimony, just ask the over half million lives he’s impacted though his songs and story. Billy’s music is driven by his heart to create songs that speak for those who can’t, and inspire those who can! He found passion for music as a young boy growing up in Indiana. Yet as a child, he was troubled and bullied. By eighteen Billy was already a young married father. But substance abuse, burglaries and violence led to a SWAT team raiding his home which ended with he and his wife being arrested. As a result, their baby girl was taken and they were both sentenced to prison. While locked up, Billy made a decision to follow Jesus Christ and his life was radically changed from that day forward! Billy and his wife were miraculously released early from prison and soon received full custody of their daughter! Billy followed his heart and began pursuing his dream of becoming a recording artist. Since that day, God has led him around the globe with performances in the United States, China, Russia, Canada, worldwide television, and Christian music's largest annual tour Winter Jam, where his dream of arena tours and reaching tens of thousands for Christ became a reality! Billy is incredibly grateful for the friendships and collaboration he’s found touring with artist's like Building 429, Crowder, Andy Mineo, Passion, Hillsong Young and Free, Red, NewSong, and so many more.
