From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fernando Ortega is a singer-songwriter in contemporary Christian music. He is noted for his simple, yet rich interpretations of traditional hymns and songs, such as “Give Me Jesus”, “Be Thou My Vision”, and many others. He is also known for writing clear and accessible songs, such as “This Good Day”.

BIOGRAPHY

Fernando grew up in a village near the banks of the Rio Grande. His family lived in the area for eight generations; his music is influenced by those roots. From all this heritage, from his classical training at University of New Mexico, and varied life experiences, this turned into a unique sound that embraces country, classical, Celtic, Latin American, world music, modern folk and rustic hymnody.
