ABOUT CHRISTIAN

Christian Nuckels is a worship leader, songwriter and recording artist. He currently lives in the Tulsa area with his wife and his three children, whom he lovingly refers to as "The Nucklings". He is a lover of fine coffee, traveling the world, and all things Star Wars. Over the last 2 decades, Nuckels has released a copious volume of music exploring various genres and styles.

Originally from Denton, TX, Nuckels began his musical journey in 1999 as the vocalist for the ska band, Six Foot Midget. When SFM dissolved, Christian began to focus on acoustic emo rock as a solo artist and in 2004 he partnered with SFM’s producer, Justin Rana, to record his debut EP, Stating The Obvious.

After several years playing at various churches and clubs in the DFW indie rock scene, Christian took a musical hiatus to focus on his family. Following the tragic death of his father in 2009, he relocated to the Washington DC area to work in full-time church ministry and began writing worship music. In 2014 Nuckels founded the worship band Grace Rising and released an LP in 2016 followed by a live EP in 2017. These were later re-released as one volume simply titled Grace Rising.

In June of 2018 Nuckels relocated to Tulsa where he served as one of the Worship Pastors at BattleCreek Church for over 6 years. He released the album Alive and Free in August of 2019 followed by other projects such as "Love of a Savior" with Gospel Lee and  “Heartbeat of Heaven” from BattleCreek Collective.

Christian is also the vocalist for the indie rock duo, FOREVER AGAIN alongside his long-time friend and guitarist Chris Wetterman. The group released their debut album “Resonate” in 2020 with UK-based record label, Engineer Records.

Christian’s latest album AWAKEN REVIVAL was released in April of 2024. This collection of original worship songs expresses a deep desire for the Holy Spirit to strengthen and unify the church, and features many singles that Nuckels wrote and released the 2 years leading up to completion of the album.
