Nashville, TN (July 26, 2013) The multi-talented award winning family group, The Isaacs, are thrilled to have three nominations in the 2013 NQC Music Awards. The nominations include Mixed Group of the Year, Ben Isaacs for Producer/Arranger of the Year and his sister Sonya Isaacs Yeary garnered a nomination for Soprano Singer of the Year.
Sonya Isaacs Yeary along with her sister Becky Isaacs Bowman have been busy in the studio singing background vocals for Trace Adkins, Merle Haggard and Don Williams, working on The Isaacs new project and touring with the family.
Sonya stated, “We appreciate every fan who supports The Isaacs and helps us to continue doing what we love. It is special to receive the votes with so many talented artists also on the ballot.”
Ben Isaacs is behind the scenes of many great recording projects for artists including The Oak Ridge Boys and the Gaither Vocal Band.
When hearing of the nominations Ben said, “The Isaacs as a group and I are so honored to be recognized for the work we do in front of the fans and in the studio as well. We just strive to do our best every day for God and it is an added bonus to receive the nominations. Thank you to everyone that voted for us.”
The NQC Awards are based on both fan popularity and professional excellence, with two divisions of awards that are presented. The first division is the Fan Awarded categories where awards will be determined by fan voting. The second division will be the Industry Awarded Categories, which will be determined by the music professionals that participate as exhibitors during the National Quartet Convention.
The Southern Gospel Music Guild is an important partner in this process, as the SGMG is responsible for determining the category criteria, as well as screen entries for eligibility. The SGMG professional membership also determines the recipient of the annual Les Beasley Award, given to a person or company that has made a significant impact in the field of Gospel Music.
The Isaacs’ many awards and accomplishments include Grammy nominations, six Dove Awards including the 2012 Dove Award for Bluegrass Recorded Song of the Year, numerous Absolutely Gospel Music and Singing News Fan Awards.
The Isaacs have become a favorite on the Gaither Homecoming Tour and they maintain a full schedule of their own tour dates, performing in all kinds of venues from small country churches to bluegrass festivals to large arenas, as well as their regular appearances on the Grand Ole Opry.
