Logan Smith, one of Southern Gospel's top new artists, will officially join 11th Hour as its third member.

"We are excited for this new season," says 11th Hour's Amber Eppinette. "Loganbrings a fresh new sound and also an energy that's undeniable. We are looking forward to having him join the 11th Hour family."

Logan, a pastor's son from Covington, Georgia, has had a full-time ministry for 11 years. He got his start in music after listening to Vestal Goodman in Gaither Homecoming Videos and finding inspiration to sing. While his music preserves a rich and traditional sound, the 21-year-old has been able to bring a fresh feel to his original, chart-topping songs. Logan has released seven solo albums, performed with the Gaither Homecoming Tour, and was a nominee in the 2017 Singing News Fan Awards Top 10 Young Artist and Top 5 New Artist categories. He's toured all across America, Canada, and has headlined two Norwegian tours.

Logan says he's excited for this next chapter in his life and ministry.

"God has a perfect plan for all of us and I'm glad he's put me with these talented ladies," Logan says. "We've only been on the road together a few weeks and it's been incredible to watch what God is already doing. I'm grateful to have this opportunity. The best is yet to come. I look forward to seeing you all somewhere on the road, soon!"

Logan will still perform at all his previously booked dates as a solo artist as he joins 11th Hour for their upcoming dates.

11th Hour, which features Amber Eppinette and Jaquita Lindsey, currently holds the No. 1 spot on May's Singing News chart with their single, "Doin' What's Right." The song marks the group's fifth No. 1 in the last two years.
