Editor's note

Fred Hammond's gospel carries weight and melody

A working musician whose songs like 'No Weapon' became straightforward sources of strength.

If you want to hear what he does, 'No Weapon' is the one. 'We're Blessed' gives you the melodic side of it.

Hammond's music has that melodic quality that connects without needing much decoration. Songs like 'We're Blessed' and 'Show Me Your Face' found their audience because they occupy a particular space for listeners. 'No Weapon' draws from a psalm to create something people actually turn to.

He came up singing in church, learning piano and developing that voice. After being part of Commissioned starting in 1983, he went on to make solo records like 'In Case You Didn't Know' and 'Purpose by Design'. He's been putting out albums and performing for decades.
