“Our hearts are so full and grateful. Thank you so much to everyone who has listened to our music and supported us. The journey has been indescribable,” We The Kingdom shared following their win. “We’re thankful that God has been able to use the pain and everything we’ve walked through to get here to communicate His love to people. This wouldn’t have been possible without you and without our incredible team. Thank you so much. We love y’all! Let’s keep making music!”

We The Kingdom earned a total of four nominations this year—the first Dove nominations of their career. In addition to their nod for New Artist of the Year, the collective’s No. 1 single, “Holy Water” vied for Song of the Year and Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year. Moreover, their debut EP, Live at the Wheelhouse, was up for Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year.
