About David Phelps

David Phelps is an American Christian vocalist, songwriter and vocal arranger, who is most known for his stint as tenor and soloist in the Gaither Vocal Band, with which he performed for 8 years. During and after his time with the Vocal Band, David has released several solo albums, including two Christmas collections.

David is a Lyric Tenor as a trademark of his large range, especially his ability to sing in a high tessitura for sustained periods. Live recordings, whether by himself or with the Gaithers, indicate he has over a three octave full voice range. In the first verse of "Just As I Am," off of the album "Revelation," David sings an E2. This is attested by live performances. During a performance of "When God Dips His Love In My Heart," he ably sings an F5, full voice, and sustain it for a significant period of time.

During his time with the Gaither Vocal Band, his high tessitura was employed often.
