There was a time when you could find Zach Williams playing with his former band mates late nights in smokey bars around Northeast Arkansas. His raspy, soulful voice and lyrics about life seemed perfect for those venues. It seemed perfect but there was still something missing. Then a few years ago Zach Williams found that missing piece to his life. He found the Chain Breaker. He left the smokey bars for a more fulfilling calling. He became a born again christian singer and song writer. Instead of pouring a beer, he poured himself into being a better husband, father and christian performer. Since then Zach Williams has spread the gospel through song. And, people are hearing his message. We are proud to announce that Zach Williams, along with co-writers Mia Fieldes and Jonesboro native Johnathon Smith, have been nominated for a Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Performance/Song for the hit “Chain Breaker”. Congrats to Zach Williams and his co-writers for the nomination.
