NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Five-time GRAMMY® winner Steven Curtis Chapman releases “That’s My Dad,” a touching tribute to his father, today.

“It seems only right that I would finally write a song for the man who gave me a love for music, taught me how to appreciate a “great song” and was in fact the first songwriter I ever knew. I’m very thankful for my dad and thankful I could share this song that he inspired on this Father’s Day weekend,” shares Steven.

Steven’s father Herb Chapman Sr. has an established musical legacy of his own in the family’s hometown of Paducah, Ky. with his store, Chapman Music, where he has taught music for over five decades to thousands of students, including Steven and his brother Herb Jr. “The first sound I remember as a little barefoot boy was my daddy’s Martin guitar and a 5 string banjo,” Steven sang on the title track of his 2020 GRAMMY®-nominated album, Deeper Roots: Where the Bluegrass Grows.
