Chuck Girard, singer, songwriter, recording artist, and worship leader, is one of the pioneers of Contemporary Christian Music. He was co-founder and lead singer of the group Love Song from its beginning to the present. Born in Los Angeles, and raised in both Southern and Northern California, Chuck began playing music at an early age. In his teens, he formed a group called The Castells, which had two national top 20 hits, “Sacred” and “So This Is Love.” They also released the song “I Do”, which was produced by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys. It was during this time as a teenager that Chuck shared the stage with stars such as Roy Orbison, Jan and Dean, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bobby Vee, Jackie Wilson, Brenda Lee and others.

Chuck has released many albums, toured the US, Europe, and Australia several times, both solo and with the Chuck Girard Band. He has toured in Indonesia, Africa, Mexico, Canada, and most recently, the Middle East.

In this capacity, Chuck to this day ministers through music, worship, and teaching in the United States and around the world. Chuck has appeared with Billy Graham, and on “700 Club”, “100 Huntley Street”, and “Trinity Broadcasting Network.” John 9:25 “…I was blind but now I see”. This is where it all started for Chuck.
