Chris Blue, who took home the title on season 12 of The Voice, has a new album and a new TV special.
The singer-songwriter released his debut gospel album titled Foundations: The Hymns of My Heart on June 7.
“This is where my life, my story, my faith began. I really want people to know who I am, at my core, so why not start at the beginning?” Blue said in a statement about the LP.

The 10-song collection from Gaither Music is described as a “testament” to Blue’s faith and will be showcased on a TV special later this month.
Featuring performances and interview footage, the special airs Sunday, June 23, at 2 p.m. ET on Aspire TV, a cable channel featuring programing focused on African Americans. The special will also be broadcast on RFD-TV, TBN, Heartland, Proclaim Broadcasting, CTS, The Walk TV, CTV, Total Living Network (TLN), Vision Television & Hope TV (Canada) and The Miracle Channel (Canada).
Blue was a fan favorite on NBC’s The Voice back in 2017. He performed a soulful rendition of The Miracles’ “Tracks of My Tears” during his blind audition, was selected by coach Alicia Keys, and eventually won the singing competition.
Hailing from Knoxville, Tennessee, Blue started singing at church and with his family band as a small child.
At the age of 12, he was ordained and later became a worship leader. While still in his teens, he performed with legendary gospel artists including Fred Hammond and Kirk Franklin.
