Committed

Wayne grew up in the church and growing up in the country (Kinloss, Trelawny) there wasn't that much activity and entertainment besides what was found at the church. His interest in music, grew from the fact that his father had a wide collection of music from Gospel to R&B and Reggae; also there was always music in the church. The first public recognition Stoddart received was at a concert at Clarks Town Primary School. "I was in grade 4 at the time and I just started singing a pop song and doing all the dance moves. The class went wild." As a result of that primary school experience, Wayne and his brother Steve started singing together as the Stoddart Brothers. Everywhere Wayne went music followed and 'vice versa'. Wayne was a local High School singing star at William Knibb High School and when he went to college he formed the all male quartet Dunamis and the results were the same (the Class of 94' Excelsior College). Stoddart worshipped at the Mountain View New Testament Church of God where he was the Musical Director. Wayne formed the Gospel group Dynamis from the local members of the church and produced the album 'Fulfillment' as a church project. In March 1996 the group was nominated Best Performing Gospel Band at the Jamaica Music Awards (JAMI) for the 'Fulfillment' Project. Wayne has shared stage with artist such and Shirley Caesar, Rev F. C. Barnes and Sis. Judy Mowatt (former member of Bob Marley's I-Three) to name a few. Wayne Stoddart's album COMMITTED was nominated Best New Reggae Gospel album for the New York Caribbean Gospel Awards (NYCGA) 2002. In 2003 Stoddart won the award for the most Distinguish Male Vocal and was recognized by the Merlin Gospel Awards.
