Jason Nelson, the son of a Pentecostal Bishop, grew up surrounded by gospel music. From traditional hymns to the contemporaries of that day such as the Winans, Andre Crouch, and Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Jason followed gospel music. Today, Nelson claims influences from Fred Hammond, Kim Burrell, Donald Lawrence and Stevie Wonder.

Nelson developed his musical skills under the tutelage of the late Dr. Nathan Carter at both the Baltimore School of the Arts and Morgan State University. Nelson’s heart is rooted in music ministry, currently serving as Pastor of the Greater Bethlehem Temple church in Randallstown, Maryland.

Nelson is also an accomplished bassist. He has played with many gospel artists such as Kim Burrell, Ted & Sheri, Yolanda Adams, Marvin Sapp and Karen Clark Sheard. However, Nelson’s true love is singing. He started singing with his brother, Jonathan Nelson, in the group “Purpose” and his career as a recording artist had begun.

Nelson became a sought after soloist, performing on tour with Mary Mary, Kim Burrell, Ted & Sheri, Karen Clark Sheard and Patti LaBelle. His performance resume includes concert appearances with Cece Winans, Israel Houghton and New Breed, Tye Tribbett and Greater Anointing, Donald Lawrence, Bobby Jones Gospel, TBN’s Praise The Lord and MEGA Fest.

Nelson’s latest solo release is “Place of Worship,” capturing the heart of Nelson and the authentic relationship he has with God.
