American contemporary Christian musician Michael W. Smith is one of a select number of Christian artists who have managed to achieve crossover success with mainstream audiences. His brand of spiritual adult contemporary pop, along with several instrumental worship and Christmas albums, have made him a favorite among fans seeking to embrace the holiday spirit and celebrate their faith through music. On his 20th studio album, 2011’s Glory, Smith enlisted a 65-piece orchestra to produce his most soaring collection of instrumental spiritual songs yet, landing him at No. 8 on the Christian Albums chart. Smith made his solo debut in 1983 with the Grammy-nominated The Michael W. Smith Project, releasing several more successful albums in the ‘80s before achieving mainstream success with hit single “Place in This World" from 1990's Go West Young Man. He is the recipient of three Grammy awards, including two Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album awards for I’ll Lead You Home (1995) and Worship Again (2002). On tour in 2013, Smith has been wowing fans with his truly collective live concert, inviting ticket buyers to sing along to his impressive array of spiritual and holiday songs.
As always Michael was fantastic. He is genuine sincere and has so much God Given talent. The greatest compliment I can give to Him it’s s at his show The Presence of The Lord was in the house. Well done and Great Show Michael.
The concert itself was great and I’m glad I got to see MWS here in Idaho. However, I was most looking forward to the VIP meet and greet that I paid extra for, but unfortunately they had initially given the wrong start time for it. This caused me to miss the VIP experience. While speaking with someone on staff at the venue that night, he said they made a mistake and sent out an email with the time change. Unfortunately my week leading up to the concert was very busy and I was relying on the Ticketmaster app for the time of the event and hadn’t checked my email for a few days. The app never updated the VIP event time change and so I showed up at the wrong time and never had the chance to meet MWS and we wasted our money only to be disappointed. The gentleman at the venue was very kind and tried to help so really appreciate that, but I just wish we could get our money back for a mistake that they made. I hope Ticketmaster will consider making exceptions for refunds when these kinds of things happen.
We could tell Michael was tired. He shared he had just come from Poland. It was good but disappointed for the money you pay, you don’t get the orchestra or choir that usually accompany his music. He spent a lot of time getting the audience to sing for him. I think it would benefit everyone if he had rest traveling between countries.
What a total joy to see MWS again! Thank u Michael for coming and to Ticketmaster for providing the tickets!
Very much enjoyed praising God with Michael W Smith!! He is a real Christian who has energy and faith to back up his incredible talent. I loved how he got us involved in singing our favorite songs.
He performed with a very humbling performance with fan interaction through out the whole concert
This concert did not disappoint, Michael W Smith is a gift to the world. He carries an anointing that few performers do, and with that he brings people into the throne room of God. He recognizes his talent comes from a higher source and his willingness to share it with us is a true blessing. Then he tops it off with enlightenment to his audience of the many needs of those less fortunate, but is always the true heart of God, children. Thank you for bringing the worship to us, especially the songs that so richly touched our hearts as we have walked with God for over 40+ years. Music is so special to the Lord and His people, a wonderful form of communication. Such a rich experience, and a memorable evening filled with joy and tears. Thank you Michael W. Smith, you are a remarkable person, an amazing gift to our world!
Michael W. Smith put on an amazing concert! The travel down memory lane was fun also enjoyed the worship. Thank you for reflecting Jesus!
Sense of God inhabiting his people and the musicians on the stage
We really enjoyed MWS' show at the Morrison Center in Boise. This venue is great, staff is very friendly, not a bad seat in the house. MWS was great, too. This was my 1st time seeing him live but have listened to his music since the early 90's.
