John Tesh

In an impressive career that spans more than 25 years, John Tesh is known as a leading and respected figure in the entertainment and broadcasting industries. In 1996, after 10 years as co-host of “Entertainment Tonight,” he surprised many by leaving the highly visible position to pursue his career as a fulltime musician. Since then, Tesh has also become one of the most successful syndicated radio show hosts in the country with “The John Tesh Radio Show: Music and Intelligence for Your Life,” heard on over 275 stations by more than 8 million listeners.

As a recording artist, Tesh’s releases, A Deeper Faith, Christmas Worship and Power of Love all resided on the Billboard Pop and Christian Music charts and, Power of Love was nominated for a Grammy Award. With the release of A Deeper Faith 2 and his book "The Power of Prayer and Worship,” Tesh stepped further into a world in which he desires only to be 'useful' to others. Tesh’s first live Red Rocks concert from 1993 was a best selling CD and the subsequent Red Rocks Platinum, was also a hit national television special.

As a television host, recording artist, and syndicated radio show host - John has succeeded in all of these facets of the entertainment industry. With three gold albums and a career that includes six Emmys, two Grammy nominations, an Associated Press Award, several number one radio hits, three hit PBS specials and two tours as an Olympic announcer/composer, it’s obvious that Tesh has a drive for versatility.

His latest project, “John Tesh - Alive: Music & Dance,” is set for release on CD and DVD in March 2008 and will coincide with a national television broadcast and book release. Tesh lives in Los Angeles with his wife, actress Connie Sellecca, and his thirteen-year old daughter Prima. Visit: Tesh.com.
