An Emmy Award-winning and Grammy-nominated musician/composer and broadcast journalist, Tesh is the host of a nationally syndicated radio show and head of his own highly successful media company. He can also be seen as a frequent guest on such national shows as The Tonight Show, Live with Regis, The Today Show, Hour of Power, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and Larry King Live.
With two gold albums, more than a dozen Top 10 bestsellers, several pop radio hits and three hit Public Television specials, Tesh's music crosses several genres, reaching an ever-expanding audience of listeners. In September of 2000 Tesh ventured into new, yet familiar musical territory with the release of Pure Hymns, a collection of inspirational songs of worship, many of which he performed growing up at Westbury Methodist Church in Garden City, New York. Through Pure Hymns, Tesh offers a collection of both traditional hymns and contemporary songs, performed as instrumentals with orchestral and acoustic accompaniment. A special highlight includes a guest appearance by the Dove Award-winning Christian group, 4HIM. Pure Hymns is one in a series of "The John Tesh Project" albums and will be released through his FaithMD Music label.
Pure Hymns follows John's last CD, Pure Movies 2, which was released this past April and quickly hit #1 on the Billboard New Age Charts. In 1999, Tesh released his One World CD in conjunction with a hit PBS special of the same name. Again, the album went to number one on the Billboard chart and the PBS special became one of the most successful programs of the year. The project brought about Tesh's first tour in over two and a half years, which ran from August 1999 to January 2000. This past May, Tesh announced the formation of The TeshMedia Group, the parent company which oversees his growing music and touring, broadcast, production, publication and Internet divisions. The music and touring division is comprised of three music labels, each created to appeal to different segments of his audience. Garden City Music will release all solo, project and presents albums by Tesh; FaithMD Music will service the Christian community.
