Michael D. Finkley is a Grammy®-nominated gospel artist whose musical journey began at just eight years old, singing in his grandfather’s church in Mullins, South Carolina. Surrounded by a legacy of faith and music, Finkley quickly discovered his calling—to use his voice as a vessel of healing, encouragement, and worship. From those early church pews to global stages, his mission has remained the same: to glorify God and uplift others through the power of gospel music.
Finkley made his official musical debut with the inspiring single “Biggest Dream Come True,” a moving anthem that reflects his personal journey of perseverance and divine purpose. He followed this success with “Smile,” a joyful track inspired by Proverbs 17:22, reminding listeners of the strength and restoration found in a cheerful heart.
In 2024, Finkley earned a Grammy® nomination for his contribution to Antonio Vergara’s album The Fury, nominated for Best Contemporary Blues Album. This career milestone affirmed his unique voice and impact as a cross-genre artist who remains deeply rooted in gospel.
Later this year, Finkley will release his next highly anticipated single, “Shoulda Been Me”—a powerful, soul-searching reflection on grace, sacrifice, and redemption. The song offers a deeper glimpse into the themes of his upcoming full-length gospel album, which is set to release in 2026. This debut album will be a heartfelt collection of worship, testimony, and hope—honoring his spiritual journey and inspiring believers around the world.
Finkley continues to blend faith, authenticity, and powerful storytelling in every note he sings. With each new release, he proves that when a calling is rooted in purpose, it has the power to reach hearts, change lives, and glorify God on a global scale.
