Denise Edwards
In August, 2008, upon the release of her Christmas CD, "Oh, What A Gift," Denise became a signed artist on the Aspirion Label. "Oh, What A Gift" was released on the top 20/40 charts in the U.S. and 25 countries. It received a five-star rating from indie music.com and stayed in the top 100 on the indie charts for more than four months, peaking at #2. She is currently working on a third CD titled, "My God Can." It should be ready for release this fall.
Kemi
From the tender age of six, gospel singer/songwriter Kemi has harbored a deep passion for music. However, it wasn’t until she sang the soul-stirring song “My Offering” with Grammy-nominated Gospel recording artist, James Bignon that she realized that she was born to create music. Following this epiphany, Kemi was divinely inspired to write inspirational songs and accepted the call to music ministry as her purpose in life. Music and lyrics are her passion and it shows in her vocal delivery and lyrical content. One of her first songs, the infectious, head-nodding “Keep On Fillin’ Me Up” earned her a finalist spot in the 2005 John Lennon Songwriting Contest. She went on to win first place in the 2006 Iowa Gospel Talent Search Competition singing the Gospel favorite, “Order My Steps.”
Daily Creek Music with Melissa Moates
Melissa Moates, worship leader, song-writer, performer and teacher has recorded her second full-length project Fall Like the Rain. Comprised of her own original material, Fall Like the Rain is a much-awaited sequel to her first album, One Fine Day. The success of One Fine Day, both in radio and television markets, warrants the industry’s notice of another great project. Her experience in radio, artist management and music law while in Nashville gave the insight needed to write and produce her own music.
Resolution 541
We just released our four song demo CD. It has "Overcome," which is featured on our myspace, "Healing Touch," "Impact," and "Worth Fighting For." Without the love and support of our fans we wouldn't have made it this far today. The CD's will be selling for $6. Ask one of us or go onto iTunes or Napster. We love to do concerts. Concerts is what gets us experience. Which we have quite a bit of. It improves us as a band, and with any band there is always room for improvement. Alex, our guitarist, will be leaving us for six months. We will miss him dearly because he always adds a positive presence to the stage. He will be leaving for basic training for the United States Air Guard. We can all thank him for the duty that he will be doing for our country. Keep Alex (And us) in your prayers.
