Singer | Songwriter | Worship Leader
Dallas-based singer/songwriter and worship leader Davy Flowers is celebrating two major milestones with the release of her full-length debut, I Was Loved, as well as the success of the record-breaking “The Kingdom Tour,” which currently ranks as one of Pollstar’s Live 75 top outings.
Flowers’ highly anticipated debut from The Worship Initiative, I Was Loved was produced by Shane Barnard (Shane & Shane) with two tracks produced by Bryan Fowler (TobyMac). A worshipful pop collection exuding intimate joyfulness. Featuring 12 tracks—11 of which were co-penned by Flowers.
“Davy has been part of The Worship Initiative community for a while,” says Shane Barnard. “She has always been deeply passionate about Jesus and His living Word, and she's a natural fit with the mission of The Worship Initiative. We couldn’t be more excited to help Davy share her songs and her heart with the world.”
Flowers is currently on the road performing with Housefires, special guests along with Jonathan McReynolds on the 37-city “The Kingdom Tour” headlined by GRAMMY®-winning collective Maverick City Music and 16-time GRAMMY® winner Kirk Franklin.
Born and raised in Houston, Davy Flowers serves as a resident artist at The Worship Initiative in Dallas, as well as a worship leader at Dallas’ Watermark Community Church. Her music reflects a story of healing and triumph in Jesus, and her passion is to connect broken and weary hearts with the power, presence and love of God through her songs and worship leading.
