Smith, Brenton Brown, Meredith Andrews, Leeland Mooring, High Valley, Martin Smith, MercyMe, Matthew West and The City Harmonic. Most recently, Sykes wrote for Jaci Velasquez's Dove Award winning and Latin GRAMMY nominated album Confío and its English language counterpart,Trust.
Sykes also appears on the critically acclaimed Integrity albums Blessed Assurance: The New Hymns of Fanny Crosby, Majesty In A Manger, and I Am N, an album developed in partnership with Voice of the Martyrs. Sykes received two Covenant nominations last year for I Am N and previously won a Covenant Award in 2014 for Inspirational Song of the Year for "Faithful."
