JMA Welcomes Mattie Jones!

JMA welcomes "Mattie Jones" as an artist to our promotions company.  Mattie has been in southern gospel music for many years.  She is now working as a solo artist.  You may contact our agency for more information.  Mattie sings from the heart with true worship, exalting Jesus Christ for who He is and all that He has done for us.


You will enjoy Mattie singing the song "Look For Me."  As she sings this song, she normally looks at her husband, Robert, of (too many years to tell) lol with tears in her eyes.  I too can identify with that.  Jerry and I sing "I Want to Stroll Over Heaven" and it is just a normal thing to take each other's hand and sing it together!  


Mattie...welcome to the JMA family!

News Update

I have talked to several of our artists this week.  We are all looking forward to Fan Fare and all of the events for this year.

Please remember to tell your friends about JMA and have them to sign up as followers!  We want to make this a place for promotion of all of our artists!  Beginning with March, the charts posted on here will be from comments from followers...telling us they're favorite group, and song...as well as the points from charting.  You do not have to have a chart song to be in JMA Charts...but the chart songs in various magazines will be included in our charting system.

Thanks,
Barbara

JMA EVENTS

Things are coming together for our main events for 2012. 


This year, we welcome several new artists along with those who have been faithful to be a part of this organization for years.  Thanks to all of you. 


Beginning with the Fan Fare Showcase on Tuesday May 1st in Pigeon Forge, TN at the Smoky Mountain Convention Center.  This will be our first showcase at Fan Fare.  We are looking forward to attending the Awards Program and hopefully, some or our Artists will be in the top five and who knows...


In September we will host our 4th annual NQC Showcase at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, next door to Freedom Hall in Louisville, KY.  10 hours of recording time to be given away at the end.  Sounds like fun to me.  For auditions...please email me...barbara@jubileemusicartists.org and send information about your group/solo, etc.  I will take a listen!  There are a few spots open on each program.


November 29-December 1at..First Annual JMA Awards Program and Banquet..A Jubilee Homecoming DVD Shoot with several artists...and big plans for the ending program on Saturday night.  TBA


If you are interested in doing a 10 song DVD shoot for yourself, contact me.  You will be amazed at the cost!  


Our producer for these DVD shoots will be Mr. Eddie Crook from Nashville, TN.  Eddie and Janice Crook are long time friends of mine, and Mr. Crook is absolutely one of the best producers in what we have know for years as "Southern Gospel Music." Mr. Crook has launched the careers/ministries of many well know artists in Southern Gospel Music today.


Join with us at these gatherings and let's have Church....together!

Radio!

Today, it's all about Radio Air Play!

For the past four years or so, I have been involved in radio promotions.  It has been great and I have learned the business.

We are very proud of our artists for the air play they have recieve, and for those who are currently in the Charts.  Joan Gregory, Still Water, and The Blackwood Singers...RW, Donna, and Andrea Blackwood.

Let me say to you, while radio charting is good.....it is about getting air play that counts.  Be blessed when your promoter tells you that you are getting good play whether you chart, or not.

Years ago, I do not remember a charting system!  There was nothing like that and folks just listened to the music, played what the people requested and we all received blessings from that.  Ha..I never knew if people were playing my songs or not!  Just when we would sing, they would love it and so I felt like someone must have been to a concert.

"Let us not grow weary, for in due season we shall reap....if we faint not." BIBLE  If you don't know where that one is, look it up...tell you next time.  YES, I do know where it is.  The point is, we should be happy to sing where the door opens, use the promoters to help get air play, and rejoice even if you are not in the charts.

You may send me a note on here to vote for your Feb favorite songs and the artist who has recorded...that plus the radio air play report will help me to post the top 10 each month.

Be blessed,
Barbara
