Tony Wood is an American songwriter working primarily in the contemporary Christian music (CCM) genre. He has received five Gospel Music Association Dove Awards for songwriting.

Early and personal life

Wood was raised in Chase City, Virginia and graduated from Bluestone High School (Skipwith, VA) and Averett College (now University in Danville, VA.) In 1987 he graduated from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (Wake Forest, NC).

Music career

His career began in 1990 when he signed a staff songwriting deal with Lorenz Creative Services (which was soon purchased and became the gospel division of BMG Music Publishing.) He was a staff writer for BMG for seven years while also serving as Minister of Youth/Music at Westwood Baptist Church in Nashville, TN. In 1998, he signed with Brentwood-Benson Music Publishing (Zomba/Universal) where he wrote exclusively until 2009 when he signed with Essential Music (SONY). From 2015 until the present he has been a staff writer for WORD Music Publishing.

Awards

In 1998, Wood won the ASCAP Foundation's SAMMY CAHN AWARD created to commemorate the life and career of the lyricist who gave us "All The Way," "Let It Snow" and many others. This award is given yearly to an ASCAP member showing promise as a lyric writer. Other winners of this award have included John Mayer and Lori McKenna.

Wood has been nominated for the Gospel Music Association's DOVE AWARD in the Songwriter of the Year category and for having songs in SONG OF THE YEAR categories for: Rock/Contemporary Song, Pop Song, Inspirational Song, Rap/Hip Hop Song and Southern Gospel Song. He has won three times in the Inspirational Song of the Year category: FIND YOUR WINGS by Mark Harris ('08); JOSEPH by Jason Crabb ('11) and SATISFIED by Jason Crabb ('13.) He also won Musical of the Year for AS SURE AS MY REDEEMER LIVES ... SO SHALL I ('11).

In 2015 he won the Canadian Gospel Music Association's COVENANT AWARD for Pop Song of the Year for ONE SURE THING recorded by the Color.
