Biografía

Michael English (born on April 12, 1962 in Kenansville, North Carolina) is a Christian singer who has been recording music since 1972. He hosts a program on TBN. A native of Wallace, North Carolina, English performed in his family's singing group, The Singing Samaritans, from 1972 until 1980.
