BIOGRAPHY     In Chronicles 6:31 - David did much to bring music into worship. He established song leaders and choirs to perform regularly at the Temple. As a young man, David was hired to play the harp for King Saul. He also wrote many of the songs found in the book of Psalms.

Tommie Byrd Jr. is much like David in that he brings his unique brand of music to worship around the world. He is CEO and Executive Producer of Byrd Enterprises Ministries and is a gifted Musician. Born in Detroit, Michigan, one of eight siblings, he is proficient in piano, violin, banjo, guitar, and more, but the violin is his instrument of choice.

Tommie comes from a musical family. His paternal great Grandfather Ben Byrd, played the fiddle in the Australia Island in Louisiana. His maternal great Grandfather Primos Adam, played the fiddle in parts of Mississippi. He and his brother Carlton grew up composing and arranging, playing musical scores as teenagers. They worked together in a band prior to his brother’s death.

His love of music has been his primary driver and sustainer during many difficult episodes of his life. He has developed his own label “Angel Flight Records” and maintain artistic control of content. He has written and published two inspirational books called “The Work of a Young Man” and “Shadow Among the Trees.” He also has written a script called “The Righteous Will Prevail” and has produced Christian music videos, too.

Tommie currently resides in Austin, Texas. Quoted in an article in the North County Times, Tommie says, “I really love music, it’s one of the greatest parts of my life. I want to tell everyone that it really is time for healing and time for peace. Ultimately, I want my music to comfort troubled hearts and minds.”
