Jeff Stice To Release New Christmas Project

Nashville, TN (September 2, 2014) Award winning pianist Jeff Stice is set to release a New Christmas Project based entirely on requests from friends and followers of his music.

Since the very first Christmas, music has been an intricate part of the celebration. In the 'Message' the Scripture reads; Luke 2:13-14 - “At once the angel was joined by a huge angelic choir singing God’s praises: Glory to God in the heavenly heights, Peace to all men and women on earth who please him.”

It's only natural that Jeff would bring his musical talents to join the ages of celebrating Christmas with glorious music.

Jeff recently posted a poll on FaceBook asking his friends to pick the songs that they would most like to hear him play on a Christmas project. Jeff, commenting on the new project stated "The response has been OVERWHELMING to say the least. We've had to narrow down the list by seeing which ones were most requested and it's amazing how many of the songs are ones that you traditionally don't see on projects of this type yet, there are numerous requests for these songs. Doing it this way tells me what people want to hear! This project is truly being put together by my friends."

As an added feature of this new undertaking Jeff not only wants song requests but a "story' that may go along with the request as well. Why this song? What does it mean to you?

Stice said "I love reading why these songs are special to my friends. Christmas is such a unique time of the year that it makes those stories very significant."

If you'd like to request a song or send your story to Jeff you can do so by sending it to: request@amppg.com

Oh and hurry, Christmas is right around the corner!!!

About Chuck Wagon Gang:

In 1935, "Dad" Carter and his family, migrant cotton farmers, found themselves in Texas without money. Providentially, they landed a job singing on KFYO Radio in Lubbock as the Carter Quartet. They changed their name to the Chuck Wagon Gang and a phenomenon was born. Today, the Chuck Wagon Gang holds the distinction of being the oldest mixed gospel recording group still performing with ties to its original founder. After 8 decades and 40 million in record sales, their music lives on through granddaughter of Anna Carter, Shaye Smith.

About New Haven Records:

New Haven Records is a Nashville-based music corporation that includes label, publishing, and film companies. For almost three decades, they have focused on the uniquely American genres of Black Gospel, Southern Gospel, and Country & Bluegrass Gospel.
