Sandals Royal Bahamian Transport Manager Chuck Roberts greets Gospel Music Star Fred Hammond

Gospel music star , Fred Hammond spent Christmas with the folks at Sandals Royal Bahamian checking out of the luxury included resort this past weekend.

Hammond has been active both as a member of the gospel performing group Commissioned, and as a solo artist (currently for Verity Records). He is a multiple Grammy, Dove, Stellar award winner and nominee as a performer, producer and writer.

Hammond first gained recognition while playing bass guitar for the gospel group The Winans, and by 1985 he was one of the six original members of the group commissioned, participating in 10 of the group's 12 albums.

Hammond produced Make Me Like the Moon, a stirring gospel ballad co-written by ChantĂ© Moore and Kenny Lattimore for their 2006 double-CD of gospel and R&B love songs entitled Uncovered/Covered (released October 10, 2006 by LaFace/Verity/Zomba Music Group). He also performs with Sean Combs on the album.
