CurrentMM Celebrates 2 Wins at 52nd Annual Dove Awards
Congratulations to Christine D’Clario and Evan Craft on bringing home Dove Awards last week!
Last week, CurrentMM attended the 52nd Annual Dove Awards with Christine D’Clario and Evan Craft.
Evan Craft’s “Desesperado” was named Spanish Language Album of the Year, earning Craft his first Dove Award. The album was released in February of this year as a double album in both English and Spanish along with a deluxe bilingual version.
“It is an absolute honor to have won Spanish Language Album of the Year, Craft said backstage at the award show, where he was also a presenter. “Especially to be nominated among such amazing artists and talent. I hope to continue pushing the boundary on Spanish and English music.”
Although not Hispanic himself, early in his career, Craft developed a deep love for the Latino community in and around his Thousand Oaks, California, community. He began learning Spanish in high school to help his father who was running a homeless shelter in Los Angeles. In an effort to fully immerse himself in the Latin culture, Craft traveled to Mexico and other Latin American countries, which would spawn his first Spanish album and now Dove Award win!
Christine D’Clario won Spanish Language Recorded Song of the Year for “Donde está Espíritu de Dios.” After receiving the award, Christine exclaimed,
“I'm happy! I'm hyperventilating because "Where is the Spirit of God" just won Spanish Language Song of the Year. I'm so excited!
Thanks to my co-author, friend, Chris Tomlin! Thank you Jesus!"
Later that night, Christine presented the award for New Artist of the Year alongside Kevin Quinn.
While it takes a few conversations with some people to uncover their life’s true passion, it takes roughly thirty seconds when talking with Christine. From beginning to end, it’s clear that worship is her lifestyle, and proclaiming God’s goodness, faithfulness and grace is her top priority – pure and simple.
We are thrilled for our artists and excited to see what is next for Evan and Christine.
