Boundless. That is exactly the word that best describes the capacity in musical talents and bright future of the Hinson Family.
Since the birth of this dynamic Christian music group each year has shown tremendous growth in popularity and footprint in gospel music industry. Since their humble beginnings, the Hinson Family has since established themselves as a group that has the longevity to be around for a long time and has the adaptability to produce a current sound that appeals to a broad fan base and demographic.
From California to New York, and everywhere in-between, the reaction at each concert has been a resounding echo lauding the unique sound for which the Hinson Family has become known. For those already familiar with the world of Christian and gospel music a common phrase used to describe their sound usually comes across something like, “They sound so much like The Original Hinsons, but they have created a sound that is all their own and I can’t get enough.”
Still, there are those along the way in churches or concert venues that have yet become acquainted with the inspirational themed music of the church and oftentimes their reaction comes with a smile from ear to ear as though they had found a prize in an unexpected place and they say things like, “I never thought I would like Christian or gospel music until I heard the Hinson Family. Their music belongs on the radio today and everyone needs to hear it.”
Weston is a true “Chip off the ol’ block,” as you are shaken by the familiar tones and vocal moves of his voice, it’s apparent that his late father, Kenny Hinson, has passed the mantle on to him. Weston’s wife, Christy, brings a fresh anointing of her own as her incredible range pierces the heart of all who are listening. Their blend is superb. Their song choices are always on point and their delivery is Holy Ghost inspired!”
By 2013, the Hinson Family had grown from being a husband-and-wife duo to a family trio as their 16-year-old daughter, Jordan, joined in April of that year. Jordy, as she is lovingly called by those close to her, has won many fans with her smooth vocal style that many have likened to country music legend Connie Smith with a touch of bluegrass.
At the tender age of 17 Jordy wrote her first song, titled “You’re Forgiven.” This song has been slated to be recorded on the next recording to be produced. With a premium value put on songwriting and originality this group looks to have staying power and potential for songs to do more than just top the charts.
In 2014, the Hinson Family (then called “Weston & Christy Hinson) was honored with nominations for Diamond Awards. Those nominations include a Top 5 for favorite recording, “Let’s Have Some Church.” Weston was nominated in the top 5 for “Male Vocalist of the Year” along with Jason Crabb, Jeff Easter and others.
Christy was also nominated for “Songwriter of the Year” for her contribution of six original songs on “Let’s Have Some Church.”
When asked about the group’s comparisons to his family, The Original Hinsons, Weston had this to say, “We aren’t trying to be The Original Hinsons or any other group that has inspired us … what we’re trying to do is take what we’ve learned from those phenomenal artists and build something even bigger. That’s the purpose of a foundation … to build on it, and that’s how we view our heritage … as a cornerstone from which we can build on their successes and learn from their hard work and determination.”
This group feels that there isn’t anything that they cannot accomplish both musically and professionally. In one word, what best describes the future for the Hinson Family…“Boundless!”
