Tiffany Hudson’s childhood was spent at her parents’ piano. “I would play the same four chords over and over until I felt the presence of God hit the room. God captured my heart as a young girl during worship,” she says, “and now all I want is for people to experience that same presence of God that marked me when I was a young girl.”

For the first decade of her life, Hudson traveled from state to state and church to church by way of an RV. Her parents were full-time evangelists, who eventually planted roots in rural Pennsylvania where they started a church. Hudson’s grandfather was also a member of Dove Award-winning Gospel group The Couriers. Music and ministry were woven into the fabric of her life from the very beginning. 

Hudson, a member of award-winning collective Elevation Worship, studied ministry at Southeastern University, where she really began to hone her craft in songwriting after years of leading worship at her parents’ church. At the time, she couldn’t clearly envision her future as a worship leader and professional songwriter; but she was certain she wanted to follow in her family’s footsteps. 

In 2017, Hudson took an internship with the worship team at Elevation Church in Charlotte, N.C. “I thought I was just checking off the box of doing an internship in order to graduate,” Hudson says. “Little did I know, God would have me plant my life here.” A six-month apprenticeship followed before the blossoming artist was hired to lead worship at Elevation’s Uptown campus. In recent years, she’s assumed a larger role with the primary worship team at the church’s flagship campus, helping to write and lead songs for both Elevation Worship and also for sister collective ELEVATION RHYTHM.

In 2023, Hudson released her first solo endeavor, Hidden Here, an intimate, eight-track studio collection birthed from her own devotional time. “In early 2022, my time with the Lord had become so fruitful, I was just filling journals and sitting at the piano, feeling like there were rivers coming out of me, where the prior season had felt like a drought,” she recalls. “Secretly, I felt this invitation from God to write something that might not be for Sunday morning church but something I could equally steward.

Brand new recording, “The Wonderful Blood,” serves as Hudson’s first solo offering since her debut effort. Like everything in her life, the celebratory declaration is simply Hudson’s next small step of obedience. Born out of a writing camp with Elevation songwriter and producer Josh Holiday and UPPERROOM’s Abbie Gamboa, “The Wonderful Blood” practically wrote itself as the trio chased down various themes and finally landed on a timeless thread that holds eternal relevance. “I feel like a lot of songs about the blood and the cross carry a somber, reflective kind of tone, which is needed and beautiful. But this song carries a very triumphant feeling. I just think we’ll never outgrow singing about the blood of Jesus and the sacrifice He paid for us.”

Known for helming songs like “More Than Able,” “Sure Been Good” and “New Thing Coming,” among many others, Hudson has quickly become one of Elevation Worship’s most recognizable voices. As a member of the multi-Platinum-certified group, Hudson has garnered a GRAMMY® Award, two Billboard Music Awards, seven GMA Dove Awards and a K-LOVE Fan Award.

Yet, for Hudson, who became a first-time mom in 2024, the stats and shiny accolades are secondary to her life’s mission of making sure the Bride of Christ — the Church — “shines so beautifully, the way we’re meant to.” She’s simply grateful for the small part she gets to play in a much larger story.
