Mercy's Well Featured On The Gospel Greats


 

Nashville, TN (October 9, 2014) – Powerhouse Christian music artist, Mercy's Well, was the featured group this past weekend on the highly-acclaimed syndicated Gospel music radio show, The Gospel Greats. 
 
Gospel Greats radio host, Paul Heil, interviewed the group and featured many new songs from their brand new album entitled TODAY.  Heil included the title cut of the new album, "Today," written by the album's producer Donna King. He went on to feature several more, including a song that is being noted as a potential classic in the Southern Gospel music genre, "Trade This Valley For A Mountain." That song was written by award-winning songwriter, Wayne Haun, along with the talented Lyn Rowell.

The debut single from the record, "I Wanna Hear The Gospel," written by outstanding writers, Lee Black and Gina Boe, arrived at Christian radio nationwide about 3 weeks ago and it's taking off with record speed.
 
Brad Strider of Mercy's Well expresses, "We couldn't be more thrilled with what God is doing in our ministry and through this new music.  This album has been a long time in the making.  We hadn't released a mainline project in several years. With that, we really took our time and put a lot of prayer into the decisions on each and every song.  While we love to have chart-topping songs, like "More Like Jesus, Less Like Me," from our last album, our focus remains on what these songs do to minister to the hearts of people who hear them, either in person or on awesome radio shows like the Gospel Greats."
 
The new album is available digitally on iTunes and other digital download sites.  It is also available for purchase on Mercy's Well's website, mercyswell.com, or, at Springside.com. NOTE: In celebration of the recent featured artist show, you can order the album on Springside at 20% off for a limited time.

Freemans Enter Agreement With AG Publicity

Nashville, TN (October 17, 2013) Renowned family group, the Freemans, have come to an agreement with AG Publicity to assist them in the promotion of their new CD 'Voice In The Desert' as well as representing them as an important voice in the world of Gospel music.
Pamela Unthank of AG Publicity stated “When I heard them sing 'Voice In the Desert' at the AGM Awards Celebration I not only loved the song, but loved the conviction in Chris' presentation. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work in helping to promote a group and a CD that has personally touched me.”
“Voice In The Desert”, written by Kenna West, Lee Black and Jason Cox, is not only the title song, but the first single from the project. Writer Kenna West said "I have been a fan of The Freemans for many years, so to hear them sing 'Voice In The Desert' is such a thrill.” West continued “I recently heard them sing it live, and the powerhouse vocals of Chris were absolutely explosive. Everyone in the building was on their feet."

This project has some great new songs as well as a couple of classics in the old Imperials tune “Water Grave”, sang by the youngsters Caylon “Cage” Freeman and Misty Freeman Callaway and “John The Revelator” performed by the Queen of Gospel Music herself, Chris Freeman.
Darrell Freeman commented “We have known the Unthanks many years and are confident they will work exceptionally hard to make sure Gospel music fans will know what is happening with the Freemans”
The Freemans are an exciting Gospel group made up of family members Chris and Darrell Freeman, son Caylon and daughter Misty. as well as Darrell's cousin Joe Freeman. Their close family harmony and emotional presentations bring them new fans everywhere they sing.

About The Freemans
History, experience and spiritual wisdom are three attributes that can be used to describe the foundation of the Freeman ministry. Deeply rooted with family, the Freemans experience spans 30+ years. From Darrell’s entrance at age 16 with his family’s group, the Pathways, to Chris’s award-winning teenage years with the Hinsons, the Freemans know the ins and outs of Southern Gospel music.

No doubt, Chris’s unique sound is the reason she was the youngest female artist ever to receive the coveted “Queen of Gospel Music” award two years in a row (’76, ’77) as voted by the readers of Singing News Magazine. In 1980, the lives of Darrel and Chris Freeman became one when they married on August 2nd. After singing with the Pathways for three years Darrell and Chris headed for Nashville and began the Freemans. Joe Freeman, Darrell’s cousin, soon joined them as the third part harmony, as well as their keyboard player. With this sound they have garnered tremendous growth and success.

In 1997, Darrell and Chris’s daughter, Misty, began playing acoustic guitar with the group on stage. Then in 1998, she began singing with them when they recorded Standing Out. Also on stage is Caylon Freeman, Darrell and Chris’s youngest child. He decided to join his family on the road full-time in 2002. He is now playing the drums and singing some with the group.

Now in their 20th year, the Freemans, still do approximately 250 dates a year, and continue to experience tremendous success.
