NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Award-winning Residence Music recording artist Justin Gambino is celebrating the long-awaited arrival of his first child, the joyous event leading a string of major milestones for the singer/songwriter this year. Gambino was also recently nominated for seven Josie Music Awards recognizing excellence in independent music, and his highly anticipated original worship set, Garden of the Lord, is out today.

The Texas-based artist and his wife, Ashley, welcomed son Theodore on May 7. Meaning "gift of God," Theodore's name bears witness to the Lord's faithfulness following the couple's seven-year struggle with infertility. During this challenging season Gambino was inspired to write Garden of the Lord standout track "Depend on You (All I Need)" along with Walter Halliwell and John Stratton as a personal reminder that God is our refuge and strength amidst life's uncertainty.

A collection of five new songs all co-penned by Gambino, along with one instrumental selection, Garden of the Lord marks his first-ever worship release. The Residence Music EP will be celebrated on Tuesday, July 28 during a special event at Nashville's newly minted Museum of Christian & Gospel Music. Gambino is set to be joined on the Cal Turner Hall stage by several of the project's collaborators — EP co-producer Walter Halliwell and songwriters Tony Wood, Karin Simmons and John Stratton — for an evening of songs and stories. Tickets for the Garden of the Lord EP launch event are now available.

Adding to an already momentous 2026, Gambino has been nominated for a total of seven Josie Music Awards, including Artist of the Year and Vocalist of the Year in the Christian/Gospel/Inspirationalcategory, and EP of the Year - Christian/Gospel/Inspirationalfor his 2025 release Just Like Jesus. The largest independent music awards show in the world, the 12th Annual Josie Music Awards will be held September 20 at Nashville's famed Grand Ole Opry House.
