Last Week!

Last week..... Saturday night November 13th, we hosted the group "Still Water."  Our church loved the guys and we had fun.

Sorry, Jerry forgot his camera until the fun really started!  But, this is the first singing group or any other guests we have had to our churches through the years, that anyone ever offered to help clean up the dishes!!!

Well you see, Tommy decided to dry the dishes for me.  ( I made soup and sandwiches) I used the church's real dishes.  I hate plastic, etc.  I was washing dishes, Tommy doing the drying!  He handed me a plate and told me that to do it again!  There was something on the outside of the plate!  I handed him the job of washing and I because the dish dryer!

Tommy....You are more picky than I am, but you got that plate clean!

If you get a chance to have this group to your church, go for it.  They have a wonderful spirit and really show true love for the Lord.

UP DATE

Good afternoon friends,
It has been a few days for this daily blog to show up!!  Ha!  Been busy and we are going through some concerns.  My husband had a biopsy and we are going today, to find results.  We are assured that whatever the outcome, we will be fine.

I want to introduce you to the newest group with JMA at this time.  I have formed a group with my daughter Becca, and a young man 14 years old who can evermore sing.  We are very excited about what God has in store for us to do on week ends!  We all agree that we must be in our home church on Sunday!  So, our performances will be on Friday and Saturdays most of the time.

Meet:        

                                                                   NEW JUBILEE

                         BECCA ROACH, BARBARA ROACH, AND NATHAN PARRISH

Becca is the office help around here and is employed at "Trimont Christian School" as a pre/school teacher.
She is 26 years old and has been singing all of her life.  Becca sings in the worship team at our church does many special songs but has always loved to sing harmony!

Nathan Parrish is only 14 years old!  The voice of a 25 year old.  He is awesome.  His is in High School and of course the choir, and everything else around here, but his dream is to sing Southern Gospel Music.
Go Nathan....Let's get this thing rolling.

Of course, MOM...that would be me...I will be doing most of the arranging and whatever else needs to be done.  We are for sure very excited to form this group and are looking forward to great things.

Thoughts and prayers about recording with Day Wind in Nashville.  We will keep you updated on that one.

We start our first concerts in February, of 2011.

Blessings to all of you today.

Gospel Music Today

November 8, 2010
We were thankful for the opportunity to be on Gospel Music Today with Ken Grady at National Quartet Convention.  Ken will be featuring us in an upcoming show.  We were able to share the stories behind two of the songs on the Living Oasis project. "Living Oasis," and The Reward." We are happy with the radio promotion response and encourage you to call your local Southern Gospel station and ask them to play "Living Oasis" on the Jubilee Music Artists Volume Eight Comp, cut number 4.  Check out this link for the clip www.vimeo.com/16450098

Exalting Christ!

JMA REPORT

Has been a wonderful week end.  One of our artists received an award from the GA association and we are proud of them

Unity Four of Iuka, MS received this award  and we are very proud of them.  These guys have a wonderful heart and are very sincere about what they are doing.

Did you realize that God looks in the heart of man!  Not what he says, does, or even thinks!  He is in control and blessings come to those!  Well, Chuck and JC, it is your blessing this week end.  Air play could be better but God has a way of making up for it.  I am proud of you and that folks are playing your first song and it being a re-make...This is great.  Can't wait til the original song comes out and I know you are working hard.

Sometimes in our business, we make honest to goodness mistakes and yes, just like you are reading right now, it is always the other person's fault. I have made my share of those!!  Learning this business has been a blast.  But, one thing about it....as mom used to say....it will all come out in the wash.  LOL

I enjoy talking with and working with The Unity Four!  They are not about themselves but about singing for the Lord.  Give me a whole truck load of artists who are like this and I will be blessed!

Blessings to UNITY FOUR!!

EXCITED RADIO RESPONSES!

As I talk to different artists throughout the month, they will have to tell you that I am always telling them, "Do not focus on charting but on getting air play."  I know it feels good to see your name in the chart section, and I am as thrilled as anyone about that.  But, don't you love the feeling of knowing that you are getting played somewhere?

I started this new thing with asking permission from the DJs I talk to about them sharing info for a blog on JMA. They are all fine with this.  I am having fun with this as well.

This morning, Once again I have been talking to some of my favorite people in Virginia!  Just have to write down their report for you.

Radio Work and Special Events

What we try to do at JMA is radio promotions, special events, and call in bookings.  Sometimes a day can be hectic and frustrating.

Of course I learned a long time ago I cannot please everyone.  But, if I keep my word and honor God, I have done my part.  And, pleasing God is the main thing. Sometimes we make our own plans and reap what comes from that.  Without God being in control, well....the old saying, you reap what you sew...that is so right.
Let's sew good and reap good and leave it all in God's hands.

We are excited about the coming events for JMA!  Remember April 1st and 2nd at Pigeon Forge, TN for an exciting week end of gospel music!  You can be a part.  As I always say, let's have church!

More News Coming Soon!

Family Business!

Jerry and I are thrilled to have Becca working in our business.  She is limited, but trying to help me as much as possible.

Becca works a full time job right now teaching 3 year olds in a Christian Pre/School.  She is a great teacher.
Sometimes, she is my eyes and ears for the music because I can't always get around like I need to.  One day, hopefully she can help out more with promotions.

She is helping with media and learning the business.

Thank you for sending in your thoughts and blogs for others to see.  Please invite your friends to be our friends!  Ha.....we need a few!!  We have readers, but we need followers and friends!

We are working on wonderful things that will be happening in the future.

Be Blessed!
"Delight thyself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."  (Psalm 37:4) That is my verse!!  I will share it with you!

Top Five Artists October

Going into November, I would like to report JMA top five artists.

1. Mark Dubbeld Family
2. The Lefevres
3. Terry Blackwood
4. Chris Baldwin
5. Ivan and Jamie

We are going to do this each month.  If you know a station who does not have our comp, please let us know.  We will do our best to get it to them and we appreciate all radio blogs.  They must be sent to barbara@jubileemusicartists.org for approval.

Thanks so much and November is looking great for all of our artists.  Remember, the end of the year we publish the top 20 for 2010.

We appreciate and love all of our artists.  We are getting good play on all of them.  Of course some more than others, but we are well pleased.

Our main focus here is to get air play in all areas.  If we have a song to chart, well praise the Lord.  But, we are truly about getting the artists music in the radio stations for air play....charting and non charting stations.

Blessings,
Barbara Roach
