The Man, the Music, the Ministry!
You may see him leading a congregation into high praise. You may watch that same congregation join him in an intimate time of worship. You may just find him sitting alone at the piano singing a new song of adoration unto God. Wherever you find Duane Manns, you will find the gift of song expressed through praise and worship.
As a husband, father, anointed singer, song writer, and recording artist, Duane is walking in the call of God placed on his life. Songs of worship he heard as a young man originally inspired Duane’s desire for the presence of God. As he grew older, he developed a driving passion to carry the mantle of a psalmist.
Duane has acknowledged his purpose and destiny: to inspire others to a lifestyle of worship through the ministry of song. His powerful, Spirit-filled worship services have long-lasting impact on the lives of those in attendance. Duane’s sensitivity to the Spirit, passionate expression, and unique anointing has the ability to touch the seasoned saint as well as the soul still in search for Christ.
He has sung alongside other great artists and ministers such as Donnie McClurkin, Alvin Slaughter, Mary Alessi, Anthony Walker, Steve Lawrence, Jennifer Holliday, Peebo Bryson, and Bishop Tudor Bismark. Duane has written songs for several artists including Vicki Yohe, for whom he wrote the title track for her live CD release entitled Reveal Your Glory.
In 2005 Duane founded Duane Manns & So Alive, a group of anointed singers and musicians who have answered the call to take their unique brand of worship outside the walls of the church. Their live debut project, “The Experience,†is receiving national attention with a multitude of hard hitting praise tracks, reflective worship ballads, uplifting declarations of God’s glory and faithfulness, and much more. The collection encompasses many styles and genres, representing the vast diversity found in the body of Christ.
If you are searching for a sound with an edge, a sound that gets you on your feet and inspires praise, a sound that takes you into the very presence of God, you are searching for Duane Manns. You will not be disappointed as you enter into “The Experience†with Duane Manns & So Alive!
