Nia Allen

Nia Allen is a gospel artist and worship leader based in Dallas, Texas, who achieved commercial success in 2021 and 2022 with her Billboard-charting singles "Wait" and "I'm in Love." Known for her joyful, passionate, and inspirational style, Allen's rise in the contemporary gospel scene began after releasing the EP Here Am I in 2012, leading worship at CeCe Winans' Always Sisters Forever Brothers youth conferences, Women of Faith’s national conferences, Living Proof Live with Beth Moore, and the National Worship Leader's Conference. Her performances at the Stellar Awards and appearances on TBN's Praise the Lord program further refined her worship style, propelling her 2021 single "Wait" to the top of the gospel music charts. Subsequent successes include "I'm In Love," an expanded deluxe edition of her 2023 EP Every Nation, and "Sunshine," a 2024 collaboration with Jor'Dan Armstrong, all of which continued her chart-topping streak. ~ James Christopher Monger
