Kenneth Cope - Christian Music Geared Towards Latter-Day Saints

The Paul Cardall Podcast

ABOUT KENNETH COPE

Kenneth Cope is an American composer and performer of religious music geared towards Latter-day Saints. Hisy first solo album, Heaven—Don’t Miss It For The World (released in 1988), was created out of this desire to make music to help strengthen the youth of the Church. I also continued to work on EFY recordings. Then came Greater Than Us All (1989), with the songs “His Hands” and “Never a Better Hero.” In 1991, I released another contemporary album titled Voices, with the song “Face to Face.” Then came the theme-based projects: My Servant Joseph (1993) and Women at the Well (1995). These were followed by Stories from Eden’s Garden (1998), A Prayer unto Thee (1999), Joseph Smith—the Seer (2000), and Hear My Praise (2002). In 2005, the record company released Face to Face—Kenneth Cope Collection. My most recent full album was born in 2008, titled All About You. And in 2012, I most recently created three new contemporary inspirational songs for the youth of the Church to go along with the year’s youth theme…the EP is called Rise and Shine.

Cope lived in Houston, Texas, during his high school years and attended the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. He served as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Switzerland and France from 1980 to 1982. He currently resides in Salt Lake City, Utah and has served as a bishop.

He has been closely associated with the music of Especially for Youth (EFY), with seven EFY albums having songs he composed.

Kenneth and his wife have three children
