Austin Moore was born in Louisville, Kentucky in 1979. His musical gift as a drummer was discovered at the age of three. As a young child, he began experimenting on lampshades and coffee cans. Four years later, he started playing at his local church, Moore Temple Church of God in Christ in Louisville. Under the leadership of the Late Bishop A.T. Moore, his musical gift gained increased visibility, leading to numerous local and regional opportunities.

In 2000, he relocated to Nashville, Tennessee to pursue and expand his musical horizons. His first major job in the music industry was with Dr. Bobby Jones and the Nashville Super Choir. Dr. Jones hired Austin as the house drummer for Black Entertainment Television’s (B.E.T), “Bobby Jones Gospel Show.” Being the longest running nationally syndicated television show on cable networks, the Bobby Jones Show gave emerging and well-known artists a global platform to showcase their gifts and talents through song. Austin had the pleasure of playing and recording with gospel greats such as Grammy award winning artists Rev. Milton Biggham and the Georgia Mass Choir, Donnie McClurkin, The Clark Sisters, and Shirley Caesar.

In 2005, Austin was hired as the main drummer for the legendary gospel artist and five-time Grammy award winners, The Blind Boys of Alabama.
