Composer Biography
Tim Hughes (born July 23, 1978) is a Christian worship leader and songwriter with Survivor Records, who is currently Director of Worship at Holy Trinity Brompton, an Anglican church in central London and heads up Worship Central, a new worship training resource. The son of an Anglican vicar, he grew up in High Wycombe, later moving to Birmingham as a teenager as his father was appointed vicar of St John's Church, Harborne. In 1997, aged only 19, Hughes was asked by Mike Pilavachi to lead worship at the Soul Survivor festivals. He also studied History at Sheffield University, graduating in 2000[1]. Prior to his current post, Hughes worked at Soul Survivor Watford Church, where he was Worship Pastor (the current Worship Pastor is Ben Cantelon). He moved to Holy Trinity Brompton in 2005 and, with Associate Director of Worship Al Gordon, has set up the Worship Central project. He is married to Rachel, and the couple have two children; Phoebe Joy and Simeon John. Hughes has recorded and released three albums. His songs are published in the UK by Survivor Records and distributed globally by EMI CMG. In July 2008 it was announced that Hughes would be recording a new live album and DVD at a Worship Central event to be held on September 16 at the Shepherds Bush Empire, London and would feature a mix of previously released material and brand new songs such as "Give us your courage". He released his new album at the Worship Central Global Day on the 14 March 2009 in London's Westminster Central Hall.
