At a recent press event, details were announced about the Fan Awards and the Ultimate Fan Experience. Some of the industry's top artists such as TobyMac, Amy Grant, Jeremy Camp, Brandon Heath, Francesca Battistelli, Jamie Grace and Plumb appeared to share details for this event.

"Christian music is one of the fastest growing genres across the U.S. and is having a life-changing impact on millions of lives," shares Novak. "This is the perfect time to debut the K-LOVE Fan Awards. Listeners who are encouraged daily through Christian music will now have a voice in recognizing the artists for their contribution, as well as authors who write on behalf of the Gospel, sports figures who speak about their faith, movies and other fields where Christ is first. I can't wait to see the lives impacted."



With hosting duties going to stars from A&E TV's popular show "Duck Dynasty," Phil & Kay Robertson and Jase & Missy Robertson, they shared their excitement about hosting this event.

 "We are thrilled to be a part of this fan-centered event," the Robertson's exclaimed in a joint statement. "With our own show, we know how vital the fans are to our success, and we understand why K-LOVE is giving back to their listeners. As fans of Christian music, we are excited to host the awards and bring our own Duck Dynasty flare to the evening for a fun-filled, family-friendly event."
