Chris Rice is an American singer and songwriter who works in the contemporary Christian music, contemporary folk, adult contemporary and adult album alternative genres. He became a recording artist in 1996 after signing a contract with Rocketown Records and releasing his debut album, Deep Enough to Dream. He released six albums between 1996 and 2007, before entering a 12-year hiatus.[1] In 2019, he ended his hiatus and released a joint album with gospel artist Andrew Ripp.[2] In 2020, Rice was accused of sexual assaulting a minor between 1995 and 2003, while Rice led worship at retreats for a church. An independent report found the allegations to be credible.
