AMERICAN multiple Grammy winner Travis Montorius Greene is celebrated for his powerful blend of contemporary worship and urban gospel music.
He is known for songs such as Made A Way, You Waited, and Intentional. The singer’s discography includes the record hit God Will Make A Way.
Greene has a career spanning close to two decades and his songs revolve around miraculous events that continue to happen in his life.
The celebrated singer and pastor will be in Zimbabwe for the third time on July 18 at the Celebration Centre in Harare.
Pastor Lyncolin Kapswara, events director at GEC Events, told NewsDay Life & Style that the gifted Travis and Friends will feature for the third time in Zimbabwe on the evening of July 18 at the Celebration Centre in Harare.
Kapswara added that Greene’s performance would be backed by supporting acts from Forward City Music, Kaestrings, Grace Idowu, Annatoria, Tembalami and Unveiled.
Greene was born on January 17, 1984, in Delaware and raised in Warner Robins, Georgia, where his early life was marked by miraculous events.
Kapswara said the singer's life bore testimony to the mightiness of God, as he was stillborn and was revived and at the age of four, he fell from a four-story building and survived, experiences that profoundly influenced his faith and music.

Greene began his music career in 2007 with the release of The More through Greenelight Records. Since then, he has released several albums, which include Stretching Out (2010), The Hill (2015), Crossover: Live from Music City (2017), and Broken Record (2019), among others.
His music has topped the Billboard Top Gospel Albums chart and he has been nominated for multiple Grammy Awards and Stellar Awards.
“While Travis Greene is known for songs like Made A Way, You Waited and Intentional, there has been no widely recognised song than God Will Make A Way in his discography,” Kapswara said.
“However, Greene’s song Made A Way carries a similar message to that of God’s provision in challenging circumstances. Made A Way was written during a personal trial when Greene’s wife’s waters broke at 21 weeks into her pregnancy and doctors advised them to prepare for the worst. Despite the grim prognosis, Greene wrote the song as an act of faith, believing that God would make a way. Miraculously, their son survived and the song became a testament to God’s faithfulness.”
Other notable songs include and are not limited to You Waited which is a heartfelt song expressing gratitude for God’s patience and unwavering love, Intentional a declaration that all things work together for good because God is intentional in His plans, Made A Way a powerful anthem of faith, recounting a personal miracle, Love Will Always Win, a song emphasising the triumph of love over adversity and Great Jehovah a worship song exalting God’s sovereignty.
The celebrated singer is the founding senior pastor of The Forward City Church in Columbia, South Carolina and is married to Jackie and the couple has three sons Jace, Josh and Judah.
Greene’s music continues to inspire and uplift audiences worldwide, blending powerful lyrics with a deep sense of faith and personal testimony.
