Well, it’s been a long few weeks. Last week I attended the Gospel Music Workshop Of America (GMWA) in Cincinnati, OH and as you probably know myself and some friends sat on the panel of the Verizon Unsigned Artist Showcase moderated by Neily Dickerson of the ND Co. throughout the week. It was a fun time and generally most of the artists and groups really brought it and I was able to give some truly constructive advice. (Some folks should have stayed home for real, but there’s always somebody walking around with a dream and bad hearing willing to try!) Read the rest of this entry »

In about 2 weeks, the gospel industry’s business conference/convention, GMWA will be going down in Cincinnati, OH and yours truly along with some other friends will be taking part in the “How Sweet The Sound” Unsigned Artist Showcase. So if you think you got what it takes to be gospel’s next big thing, you need to be on the place July 26 , 27, and 28 for a chance to get your talent assessed by me and some influential industry friends. You never know what may happen. Check the flier for details. Read the rest of this entry »

As we all know, one of the greatest singers, songwriters and vocal producers, Bishop Walter Hawkins died yesterday from complications with pancreatic cancer at the age of 61. It’s still rather surreal and feels like it just shouldn’t be and pulling together this blog is no easier than yesterday’s. As we, members of the gospel music industry, deal with this tremendous loss; many have taken the time to remember Walter and his legacy so I wanted to share with you. So I’ll be passing the mic to some industry colleagues and artists now.
