Join us, Melody and Candi, as we take a stroll down memory lane, celebrating our shared love for Southern Gospel music. With 17 years of concerts, events, and countless memories, we reflect on the times we followed artists like Signature Sound and Michael English, and attended massive gatherings like the National Quartet Convention and Singing in the Sun.

Plus, we touch on Aaron Wilburn's humorous take on Southern Gospel fandom in his book, "You Might Be a Southern Gospel Music Fan If." Whether you're a die-hard fan or just looking for a laugh, our anecdotes are sure to bring a smile to your face and maybe even a bit of nostalgia for the sights and sounds of Southern Gospel music.

In the world of Gospel Music, few groups are more well-known and loved than the Gaither Vocal Band. A group that, for more than four decades, has toured the world, bringing the Gospel to audiences through amazing harmonies. The list of men who have comprised the Gaither Vocal Band reads like a “Who's Who” among the gospel music industry's best-loved voices, including: Steve Green, Larnelle Harris, Mark Lowry, Michael English, David Phelps and many others. Not only that, Bill Gaither –– known as the “Godfather of Modern Christian Music” –– is responsible for discovering the likes of Steven Curtis Chapman, TobyMac, Russ Taff and many others. Through an unexpected journey, Wes Hampton landed the spot of “tenor voice” for the GVB in 2005 and is currently the longest-tenured voice in the group, other than Bill Gaither himself.

The Undercovers are paying tribute to Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton with their debut single, "Islands In The Stream” (Green Hill). Watch the music video for their stunning new version of the beloved crossover hit here: https://youtu.be/Jv7j4SU-cPg The Undercovers is a musical supergroup consisting of three of Canada's most respected vocalists. The trio has united to reimagine timeless songs by some of the most iconic artist of all time, but their own career credits are equally impressive. Luke McMaster's writing credits have sold millions of copies for superstars like Rihanna, and he has collaborated with legends like Smokey Robinson, Lamont Dozier, Felix Cavaliere and Jim Brickman, who he teamed up with for their hit single, “Good Morning, Beautiful.” Joel Parisien is best known as the front man for Newworldson, earning four Juno Award nominations, penning three Top 5 Billboard singles, and headlining festivals around the world. And Kevin Pauls is a Gospel and CCM icon, often sharing the stage with many of his musical heroes such as Gaither Vocal Band, Michael English, Russ Taff, Steve Archer, Steven Curtis Chapman and more. The group is currently touring North America with their incredible live concert event, ROGERS RICHIE & ROBINSON - the songs of Kenny Rogers, Lionel Richie & Smokey Robinson. Abandoning costumes and wigs, the group focuses on the brilliance of iconic songs, reimagined in a signature stripped down acoustic style as they reimagine timeless songs that have become the soundtrack of our lives… Classics like Smokey's "Cruising", Kenny's “The Gambler” or Lionel's "Endless Love" like you've never heard them before. Smokey Robinson himself is a fan, and called the trio's version of “Ooh Baby Baby” the best cover of his cherished song that he's ever heard. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gary-stuckey/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gary-stuckey/support
I'm so excited to have my good buddy Brian White on this week's episode of the Stories Behind the Songs podcast! Brian White's career in music has spanned over many decades and many genres - he got his start in Christian and gospel music and toured for about 15 years doing that. He eventually fell in love with the storytelling of country music and has become a true legend here in Music City. Brian not only has plenty of hits to his name, but he's written more than a few country classics as well. Some of my personal favorite cuts of his that we cover in this episode are “Watching You” released by Rodney Atkins, “Blame It On You” by Jason Aldean and “Roll On Mississippi” by Charley Pride. He also has cuts with Rascal Flatts, Trace Adkins, and Gary Allan and Christian cuts like “Holding Out Hope To You” released by Michael English and “The Promise” by The Martins. In this episode, Brian and I also talk about the difference between CCM and country songwriting, starting out as a youth pastor following God's calling for his life, and, as usual, the stories behind the songs! I've wanted to have Brian on the podcast for a longtime - in a lot of ways, he is a big reason that The Listening Room is where it is today. He was the one who organized the fundraiser in the early days when we were struggling that was a turning point for us and in turn also played a role in inspiring our "Sound Good. Do Good." program that gives back to non-profits every month. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to share it with your friends and give us a follow. It's our mission to share the Stories Behind the Songs and highlight the songwriters behind the stories, and it's because of listeners like YOU that we are able to do it.

ESPN journalist Mark Ogden tells us about his quirky trip to Iceland to find out what lies ahead for Shamrock Rovers and what Champions League football means to the minnows.

(Did you know there was once an entirely different melody?)

In this episode, Steve Fretzin, Michael English, and Courtney English discuss:Improving efficiency to improve your life and business.Why SOPs are so important to your law firm and business.Top challenges lawyers face in automating and scaling.Writing out the SOPs for your law firm. Key Takeaways:SOPs (standard operating procedures) are the key to creating a streamlined law firm and will allow you to delegate appropriately the activities that you, as the lawyer, do not need to be doing.Create training videos or modules to help train new employees rather than just having them shadow another employee and hoping for the best.For law firms with flat fee pricing, SOPs can create efficiencies and allow for automations that will help you to give more dollars to your bottom line.Automations save time for everyone, but you need to know what it is that is being done in order to standardize, automate, and delegate. "SOPs create consistency and responsibilities within a law firm - everybody knows what their job entails at that point, so there's no question as to the responsibilities that lay on everybody's shoulders.

Irish country music star Michael English first came to national prominence as a child performing on the Late Late Toy Show. This would lead to The Boy Wonder being inundated with offers of work and landing his first gig supporting showband legend Dickie Rock while still in school. A chance meeting with Henry McMahon of Big Tom's band The Mainliners would later set him on the road to success as a country singer …scoring his first big hit with Henry's song, The Nearest To Perfect. Here in our My Country Life podcast, Michael takes a trip back in time, recalling Friday night trad sessions in the family home and the sacrifices his parents made to foster their only son's career. He talks about working with Louis Walsh, singing for Bono, his love for the fans, his last days with his beloved mother…and the passion that drives his career.

Once they decided to make music their full-time careers, success came quickly.Their recording, Alleluia sold over 250,000 units. By the 1970s, they were frequent guests at Billy Graham's crusades.The Gaither Trio's songs succeeded due to their message driven lyrics rather than showy performance techniques. Their inspirational ballads included songs written by the Gaithers like He Touched Me and The King Is Coming. These original songs were also frequently recorded by Southern Gospel groups of all types.By the time Danny Gaither left the group in 1977 and was replaced by Gary McSpadden, Bill and Gloria had begun to tour with an entourage of performers. Although Bill formed the all male Gaither Vocal Band in 1980, the trio continued to perform as well, typically with one of the Vocal Band members filling the lead singer role.Gary McSpadden left the trio in late 1988. The last recordings made by the trio featured Michael English at lead.Playlist:Artists | Song Title | Album01. The Bill Gaither Trio - Get all excited - "Our Recollections"02.

This week, you'll hear a replay of the podcast Andy hosted with Mark Lowry and Buddy Greene, writers of the innumerably recorded (literally…we can't even find how many times it's been covered) Christmas classic, “Mary, Did You Know?” Tune in to hear Mark discuss writing the lyrics, how he thought it was just a poem, the questions he has for Mary that didn't make the song, and how Buddy added the music years later. (Did you know there was once an entirely different melody?) You'll also hear Buddy and Mark reveal their favorite versions of the song, a few favorite childhood Christmas memories, why the song is so relatable—plus Mark's hilarious encounter with a group of people that weren't too happy with how he explained the song.

Michael English and Allison Bradley join us to discuss the magic of the holidays and Santa Claus. Our guests share the role that Santa plays in their household during the holidays. We also discuss how they found out about Santa as children, giving to others and the magic of the holidays. Although we are talking about Christmas during this episode, we recognize that our listeners celebrate many different traditions and faith practices during this time of the year and encourage you all to also listen to last week's episode about holiday traditions - it's a good one!

Kenna Turner West, recording artist, multi-Dove Award-winning songwriter, and five-time Songwriter of the Year, will be the featured artists this week on The Gospel Jubilee.Listen to the Gospel Jubilee on your Echo device by saying, Alexa, play the Gospel Jubilee on Apple podcast.Or go to: https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/47103586/download.mp3ABOUT KENNA TURNER WESTKenna Turner West has co-written hit songs such as “Say Amen,” “Revival,” “Small Town Someone,” and “Even Me.”Her many successes have come as no surprise to her friends in the music industry; some might even say that it “runs in the family.Kenna's father is bass singer Ken Turner, who sang for many years with the legendary Blackwood Brothers Quartet. Her mother-in-law is country music icon Dottie West, who was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2018.With roots that are firmly planted in gospel music, Kenna's career began in 1983 as a vocalist. In time, however, God began to open a new facet of ministry for the singer.“I had been writing songs for years,” she recalls, “but it was more like journaling with rhyme. Yet there was a season of time around 1997 or 1998, when we were losing my grandmother to dementia and my mom was diagnosed with a tumor near her brain, that I began to see life intersecting with Scripture.The verses that God was using to bring me peace and comfort suddenly began to take on a melody, and I'd write it down. Then one night at church, a friend encouraged me to record some of the songs, so I did; then another friend who worked for a record company gave the songs to the publisher at thelabel, and within a week, the trajectory of my life had completely changed.”Kenna got her first cut shortly thereafter (“A Taste of Grace”), followed by her first radio single (“We're Not Gonna Bow”), which reached #1 on the national charts as well as earning the new songwriter her first of eleven Dove Award nominations.Twenty years later, Kenna has penned over a thousand songs and has garnered over 100 “Song of the Year” nominations, along with 25 “Song of the Year” winsand 8 BMI Awards. As a staff writer for Curb|Word Music Publishing in Nashville, her songs have appeared on GRAMMY® Award-winning projects by both JasonCrabb and Hillary Scott (of Lady A), as well as eight GRAMMY® nominated recordings.You can also find her work on projects by artists such as The Martins, The Isaacs, Michael English, The Crabb Family, Finding Favour, Charles Billingsley, Take 6, The Oak Ridge Boys, The Booth Brothers, Wes Hampton and AdamCrabb of the Gaither Vocal Band, Triumphant Quartet, Travis Cottrell, Jimmy Fortune (of The Statler Brothers), The Collingsworth Family, Brian Free & Assurance,Marty Raybon (of Shenandoah), Joseph Habedank, Karen Peck & New River, Jeff & Sheri Easter, The Nelons, Selah, The Blackwood Brothers, Mac Powell (of ThirdDay), and many more.Additionally, Kenna has created six musicals for the church, including Word Music's best-selling “We Are Witnesses,” along with the Dove Award-nominated projects, “Love Won” and “Christmas Is in The Heart.”In 2020, Kenna signed as an artist with Crossroads Music Group and released her long-awaited project, “A Reason for Hope,” in the summer of 2021.“I am so excited about this new chapter of life,” she shares. “It is as if everything that the Lord has allowed me to do for Him over the last 38 years has ledto this moment.”Kenna's career in gospel music has indeed come full circle. The author and board-certified Biblical counselor—who is currently pursuing a master's degreein theology—continues to blend music, devotional teaching, and humor into a ministry that reaches across the nation and around the world with the goodnews of the Gospel. Whether she is writing songs on Music Row or ministering alongside noted Christian leaders at venues ranging from The Pentagon to NASCARchapels to the local church, Kenna's life has a singular call: to creatively communicate the Living Hope found in Jesus Christ.“It's all I have wanted to do since I became a Believer,” she confesses, “and I feel so incredibly blessed that God is still allowing me to do just that.”For more information about Kenna's music and ministry, or to book her for an event, contact her office at kenna@kennaturnerwest.comYou can now catch The Gospel Jubilee Thursday afternoons at 4:00 PM and Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM EST on Southern Branch Bluegrass RadioGo to www.sbbradio.orgYou can also catch The Gospel Jubilee Saturday evenings at 7:00 and Wednesday afternoons at 4:00 CST on Radio For Life.Go to: www.RadioForLife.orgPlaylist: Artists | Song Title | Album01.

Take anything we say with a tremendous grain of salt. Welp, you've probably guessed: This week we are talking about Silent Fall from 1994. It stars Richard Dreyfuss as a bad shrink and generally lousey guy and J.T. Walsh as a cop, plus introduces Liv Tyler to movie audiences! Ben Faulkner--in their one and only film credit--plays the young boy at the center of the story. Linda Hamilton and John Lithgow are completely wasted in their tiny, respective roles.

Jay DeMarcus is an American bassist, vocalist, pianist, record producer and songwriter. He is a member of the country group Rascal Flatts. DeMarcus was born in Columbus, Ohio. He graduated from the Tree of Life Christian School and Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center in Columbus while living with his mother and sister. He also has a half-sister from his father's side of the family. DeMarcus attended Lee College in Cleveland, Tennessee, from 1990 to 1992. At the time, he traveled and performed as a keyboard player in the Christian music group New Harvest, led by Danny Murray. DeMarcus co-founded the contemporary Christian music group East to West and moved to Nashville, Tennessee, in 1993. In 1997, after East to West disbanded, he called his second cousin, Gary LeVox, with whom he played when they were younger, and convinced him to come to Nashville and provide some harmonies on Michael English's album Gospel, which he was producing. They engineered the album together, and became English's back-up band and road manager. The album was nominated for the Dove Award for Inspirational Song of the Year. In addition to producing for English, he has also produced albums for James Otto, Jo Dee Messina, Austins Bridge and others. He produced the 2006 release for the band Chicago titled, Chicago XXX. He soon became bandleader for Chely Wright. Eventually, he met Joe Don who is now the group's other member. DeMarcus called Joe Don to fill in for a guitarist who had left the band one night. On March 4, 2010, DeMarcus and his band mates were guest stars on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, appearing as themselves. In the episode titled "Unshockable" (10.14), he is electro-shocked by his bass guitar during a performance at a Vegas club, leaving him with total amnesia which he recovers from at the end of the episode. DeMarcus has continued to explore his acting career, appearing in the film A Country Christmas, as well as episodes of ABC's Nashville and Lifetime's Drop Dead Diva. In October 2018, DeMarcus founded the label Red Street Records, an independent Christian music label

MENTORING MUSICIANS PROGRAMRed Street Records founder Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts has a mission of mentoring musicians to be light in an industry that can easily pull them down.Jay was especially drawn to Cade Thompson whose latest song NEW NORMAL, dropping June 4, takes on the reality of rising gun violence youth are facing today in schools and public spaces. Cade shares his family's own terrifying experience and anthems a "new normal" of hope in the face of fear to change this devastating rise.Jay DeMarcus is an American bassist, vocalist, pianist, record producer and songwriter.

This past week, the world lost an amazing man. His name was Carman. Yes, the Carman that ministered through music that told a story. After a weird year of 2020, imagine the surprise of our tiny church when we were asked to host this legend in our sanctuary! We questioned our ability to make it happen, even had questions on it being wise during the current events. Yet, there we were. Our church has seen the congregation dwindle over the years but my dad's sermons continue to be exactly what we need to hear. We go live on Facebook every Sunday morning. Come be encouraged: Metro Christian CenterThe Carman event happened. To see our sanctuary full again. To watch my parents clap and smile as they listened. To look around and watch as hands were raised, lives were saved, hope was poured out like an ocean of refreshing water on everyone there. It's a time I hope I can always hold onto. Even as someone who wasn't close to him, it was such a heartbreaking moment to hear about his passing. I hurt for his crew. They were his family. I hurt for the small churches who were like us and preparing to welcome him. I hurt for the people who had already been inviting their loved ones to upcoming shows in hopes of bringing them closer to the Lord. I hurt for the ripple effect.Yet, you know what I'm glad about? I'm glad the Lord saw our family and church worthy to host him back in October. I'm glad for the friendships we made and wouldn't have otherwise had. I'm glad for the friends that attended and we hadn't seen in years. I'm glad my children were able to meet him. I'm glad that because of that moment, we were able to sponsor 2 children from the Child Fund . If you are looking for a sign to do the same: Child FundI find it so interesting to see when God is gonna show up. He sure never does it on our time, does he?When I was a teenager, I loved – and still do – a gospel singer named Michael English. Sigh. I thought he was so handsome but the way his vocals just glided along in a song is something I am convinced the angels sound like! As everyone else on this earth, though, he made some mistakes. One was significant enough that he left the gospel music world for several years. I remember reading such hate from Christians. Harsh judgements. And these weren't judgments out of caring about a fellow brother in Christ. Through the story of redemption, I had an answer to a long-time prayer that happened at the National Quartet Convention. It wasn't the place or time I thought it would be, and at the time I was doubting my prayers were even being heard, much less answered. I was wrong. I find that I can get so caught up in life. What's going on with so-and-so, which current event is causing mass chaos, fear, and division, engulfed in the worries of not just myself but even people I don't know! I cry out asking God to listen to my heart. I still struggle with questioning my abilities to be a good mom, a good wife, a good friend. I feel like such a failure in many areas of life.Is there something you're going through right now that you're not sure how it's going to turn out? Maybe you're a parent and you are worried about your kids. You're worried about their school situation. Something they seem to be having a difficult time with. Maybe you are afraid for them growing up in the world that you are raising them in.Are you concerned about a health issue? Have you been praying for what seems like eternity about a situation? Are you looking at your life and just at the point of feeling exhausted with it all? He knows your name. He knows your heart. And I am sure He has a plan that is better than anything you could imagine. Take a breath.Keep praying.This WILL be okay.I am needing your help to reach more people. If this podcast has touched you in any way, would you mind going ahead and sharing it with someone? If you'd like to leave a ratiing or review, that would be great, too!

This week, Andy hosts Mark Lowry and Buddy Greene—writers of the countlessly recorded (literally…we can’t even find how many times it’s been covered) Christmas classic Mary Did You Know? Tune in to hear Mark talk about writing the lyrics for the song and how Buddy put the music together years later. You might be surprised to hear there was once a different melody! You’ll also hear Buddy and Mark talk about their favorite versions of the song, childhood Christmas memories, why the song is so relatable—plus Mark’s hilarious encounter with a group of people that weren’t too happy with how he explained the song.

Michael English is a Father, a Son, a Brother, a Coach, a Police Officer, and a Black man. His story of how he got to where he is today is nothing short of inspiring. The persistence to fight on through struggles while holding on to his passion are lessons we can all learn from. And the openness to discuss life as a Black Police Officer in today's society is truly humbling and a conversation we are so proud to be part of. Thank you Michael for being who you are, for protecting us while we sleep, and for being a guiding light we can all look to.

410 - Ed Berghoff Ed Berghoff is welcomed on The Paul Leslie Hour. He is a musician, composer, singer, songwriter, record producer and music publisher. Some of the top recording artists have interpreted his songs: Garth Brooks, Billy Ray Cyrus, Wynonna, Michael English, Engelbert Humperdinck, Doug Stone and others. Berghoff was also the bandleader for Deana Carter (of Strawberry Wine fame) for a time. These days Berghoff composes music for hit TV shows and is also working on a solo record and a book. Listening to Ed Berghoff talk is a pleasing thing. He communicates in a laidback style. I'm looking forward to him returning to the show at some point, perhaps to perform some of his great songs. As for now, he's right here on The Paul Leslie Hour. Happy listening.

Paul and Scott catch up with Jose Feliciano to find out why "Feliz Navidad" was written in July; chat with "Santa Baby" composer Phil Springer to hear the reason he was hesitant to write the world's first "sexy Christmas song;" get the scoop from Mike Stoller about Elvis recording "Santa Claus is Back in Town" when the song was less than an hour old; find out from former Ray Charles backup singer Mable John what the movie "Christmas Vacation" did for Ray's recording of her song "That Spirit of Christmas;" talk to Mark Lowry about how "Mary Did You Know?" went from a recitation in a local church play to a contemporary Christmas standard; listen to former Motown staff writer Bryan Wells explain why his "Someday at Christmas" is as relevant today as it was when Stevie Wonder first released it more than 50 years ago; and find out how TV producer Lee Mendelson became an accidental songwriter when it was time to add lyrics to "Christmas Time is Here" from "A Charlie Brown Christmas." Jose Feliciano – “Feliz Navidad” (1970) A true international superstar, virtuoso guitarist and celebrated vocalist Jose Feliciano found fame in the US with his hugely successful Feliciano album in 1968. He earned a Top 5 hit with his interpretation of The Doors’ “Light My Fire” that same year and has gone on to win seven Grammy awards. “Feliz Navidad” was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, and was named by ASCAP as one of the most performed holiday songs of all time. Philip Springer – “Santa Baby” by Eartha Kitt (1953) At 91 years old, Phil Springer is one of the last living composers from the pre-rock “Brill Building” era of professional songwriters. In addition to writing the music for “Santa Baby,” Springer penned Frankie Laine’s Top 5 hit “Moonlight Gambler,” Frank Sinatra’s “How Little it Matters, How Little We Know,” and Cliff Richard’s “The Next Time,” which hit #1 in the UK in 1963. Additionally, he wrote songs that have been recorded by Judy Garland, Dusty Springfield, and Elvis Presley. Mike Stoller – “Santa Clause is Back in Town” by Elvis Presley (1957) One of the key architects of rock and R&B songwriting, Mike Stoller is a member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and one of Rolling Stone magazine’s 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time. His long list of writing credits with partner Jerry Leiber includes “Kansas City,” “Yakety Yak,” “Stand By Me,” “Poison Ivy,” “Love Potion No. 9,”and more than 20 titles recorded by Elvis, including “Hound Dog,” “Jailhouse Rock,” and the perennial “Santa Clause is Back in Town.” Mable John – “That Spirit of Christmas” by Ray Charles (1985) Best remembered from the sentimental attic scene in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, “That Spirit of Christmas” was co-written by Mable John. She is Little Willie John’s younger sister and was the first female solo artist signed to Motown’s Tamla label in the 1950s. She would go on to score a Top 10 hit as a Stax artist with “Your Good Thing (Is About to End)” and serve as the leader of Ray Charles’ backing singers, The Raelettes, for more than a decade. Mark Lowry – “Mary Did You Know” (1991) Though he spent eighteen years as a member of the legendary Gaither Vocal Band and has released nearly twenty albums and, Dove award winning Christian singer and comedian Mark Lowry is best known to mainstream audiences as the co-writer of “Mary Did You Know.” The song was first recorded in 1991 by Michael English, who was a fellow member of the Gaither Vocal Band at the time. It would go on to be recorded by Natalie Cole, Reba McEntire, Glen Campbell, Jessica Simpson, Mary J. Blige, Cee Lo Green, Pentatonix, and many others. Bryan Wells – “Someday at Christmas” by Stevie Wonder (1966) Former Motown staff writer Bryan Wells co-wrote Stevie Wonder’s Top 10 hits “A Place in the Sun” and “Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yesterday.” He has earned four Clio Awards for music he has composed for advertising campaigns and is Bette Midler’s former music director. Wells and partner Ron Miller co-wrote three songs on Stevie’s 1967 holiday album, including the title track, “Someday at Christmas” which has since been covered by The Jackson 5, Diana Ross, The Temptations, Jack Johnson, Justin Bieber, and others. Lee Mendelson – “Christmas Time is Here” from A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)TV producer Lee Mendelson became a songwriter by default when he scrawled the lyrics for “Christmas Time is Here” on the back of an envelope to complete the opening scene of A Charlie Brown Christmas. It was Mendelson who chose Vince Guaraldi to score the special, introducing generations of kids to jazz music. He went on to write additional songs for future Peanuts specials with collaborators including David Benoit.
