Ernie Haase and Signature Sound Christmas Tour

From the EHSS email newsletter of December 10, 2012:

Ho, Ho, Ho! Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone! We hope you’re doing well and enjoying the most wonderful time of the year with the ones you love most…I know we are. We have been in some of the most beautiful theaters this Christmas tour and have sung to some of the most cheerful people I have ever met. I’ve got to tell you: the EHSS concert goers are in a class all by themselves. Even the event coordinators at each venue brag on you to us and tell us that of all the “Stars” they bring into their venues, the EHSS fans are, by far, the BEST! So, thanks for making us who we are. We’ve got a big family – and a fun one at that.

I am so proud of all the dates on this Christmas Tour. There is one date in particular that I am very proud of and it is yet to come. After a 30-year absence from my high school stage, I am returning with the guys to do five shows in two days at my alma mater, Castle High School in Newburgh, Indiana on December 14 & 15. We are doing three shows for the whole student body (it’s a BIG school) and then two shows for the public. Only a few tickets remain – YES!!!!

Along with EHSS, we will be performing with the very choirs I got my start with: The Castle Choir and Show Choir (The Knight Sensations). I am so pumped about this and I’m very honored that some old classmates of mine are coming back home to see the show and hang out backstage at a private meet and greet before the show.

What more can I say? I think you can tell that I am about as excited as I have ever been about Signature Sound and the way we have been blessed. Doug, Devin and Paul all send their love and we can’t wait to celebrate with you this next week. If we are in your area, or even if you have to drive a distance to be with us, DON’T MISS this exciting show!

Here are the remaining dates for our 2012 Every Light That Shines At Christmas Tour.

December 13th - Lexington, SC - TICKETS
December 14th - Newburgh, IN - TICKETS
December 15th - Newburgh, IN - TICKETS

Ernie

ACADEMY OF COUNTRY MUSIC AWARDS HONOR GORDON MOTE WITH 2011 ACM AWARD

(Nashville, Tennessee) - The musical genius of Gordon Mote was honored with the 2011 Academy of Country Music's Piano/Keyboard Player of the Year Award at the recent annual ACM Honors ceremony held at Nashville's historic Ryman Auditorium. Gordon, a seven-time nominee, was also honored with the coveted award in 2009.

Long recognized by the industry as one of Nashville's most talented studio musicians who seemingly knows no limits in effortlessly crossing musical styles and genres, Mote's talents can be heard on the recordings of some of the nation's premier performers, including Bill & Gloria Gaither and the Homecoming Friends, Billy Ray Cyrus, Blake Shelton, Scotty McCreery, Elvis Presley, The Hoppers, Brad Paisley, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, George Jones, The Isaacs, Josh Turner, Alan Jackson, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, Jason Crabb, Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Rascal Flatts and Alison Krauss, just to name a few.

Since releasing his debut Southern Gospel recording in 2004, the talented singer and musician has enjoyed much success, including numerous Top 40 hits in multiple music genres and numerous Fan Award nominations. Mote's video release, "The Best of Gordon Mote," made its debut at Number 7 on the Billboard Music Video Chart in 2008. Mote's travels on tour are global - include stops in the US, Canada and Europe. He is a featured artist on the stage sharing his vocal and keyboard performances with music legend Bill Gaither and his Grammy Award winning Gaither Vocal Band and the Homecoming Friends.

The 5th Annual ACM HONORS represents an evening of musical tribute performances and special presentations celebrating the special honorees and non-televised category winners from the 46th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, held earlier this year.

Fresh from his success at the ACM's presentation, Gordon had just enough time to place his latest trophy on the mantle before being called to more awards duties - this time to emceeing the Singing News Fan Awards / SGMA Hall of Fame Induction at Dollywood with Co-Host Gerald Wolfe of Greater Vision. Gordon delighted the Pigeon Forge crowd with his quick wit and humor-providing a show stopping moment when he settled down behind the keyboard for an impromptu piano duet with Gerald Wolfe
