In 2001, Tamplin produced the album Make Me Your Voice, featuring gospel singer Andraé Crouch, to help raise funds for Christian groups working in Sudan.[5]
Personal life
Tamplin is married and has two children.[6][7] He was a resident of Costa Mesa, California,[5] and co-owned Music Painter Studios with Robert Hart, located at the nearby Santa Ana Heights.[8] He later relocated with his wife to Flagstaff, Arizona.[6] His Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy and studio are based in Sedona.[9]
Tamplin's brother Lance is a pastor with whom he started Living Stones Fellowship in 2001,[7] which was based at the La Tierra Elementary school in Mission Viejo, where he served as a worship director.[10]
