Background notes
Archive material and source history
Keith Getty grew up in Northern Ireland and started writing melodies when he was nine, influenced by his grandfather's hymns. In 2000, he began working with Kristyn Getty, and they put out their first album, 'Awaken the Dawn,' which found an audience in Christian music circles.
Their song 'Só Em Jesus' is one of the pieces that has been picked up by churches. Getty's writing tends toward hymn-like structures, and he's talked about wanting to refresh older forms without losing their character.
In 2015, there was some discussion after they played a concert in Northern Ireland that had a sponsor some people questioned. Getty has generally kept the focus on the music itself rather than getting into debates.
