SONGS 4 WORSHIP: COUNTRY CONTINUES TO DOMINATE COUNTRY AND CHRISTIAN CHARTS 
MORE THAN THREE MONTHS AFTER RELEASE

Fairfax, VA (January 14, 2008) ---- Songs 4 Worship; Country remains a 
strong contender on the Country and Christian charts more than three months 
after its release date, October 2, 2007.  Total scans for last week were 
9,866, the biggest week to date, and chart positions from Soundscan are #3 
for Contemporary Christian, #14 for the Country charts, and # 93 in 
Billboard's Top 200 Album Charts.

"Songs 4 Worship: Country was from the beginning a very special project for 
us," says Mike Jason, Senior Vice President, Audio & Video Retail, Time 
Life. "The label, the producers and the artists went into the recording with 
the goal of making a great album with a strong message and to see the fans 
react so positively is really gratifying. We are working on a star-studded 
event to support Songs 4 Worship: Country that will take place in Nashville 
during Fan Fair."

The strong response from media and fans comes from the powerful performances 
of today's hottest Country artists, many of which had never recorded Praise 
& Worship music before. The CD features twelve classic Praise and Worship 
songs with a Country twist plus three brand new compositions. On top of that 
Rascal Flatts contributed one of their existing recordings for this very 
special collection. The album showcases the talents of such top Country 
artists as Charlie Daniels, Oak Ridge Boys, Emerson Drive, Ricky Skaggs and 
Diamond Rio, to name just a few. Co-producers Teddy Gentry and Michael 
Curtis thought combining praise and worship music with these artists would 
be a perfect match.

"I was thrilled to become part of such a special recording project where my 
faith could play a part," says Gentry, former bassist of supergroup Alabama. 
"Most Country artists have a gospel music background so the response from 
the guest artists was also very positive."

The fans and press have been supportive of Songs 4 Worship: Country since 
its release and major coverage for the project has included, Billboard, 
Country Aircheck, All Access, Country Standard Time, About.com, Country 
Weekly, Christian Retailing, CountryMusicOnline.net, Homecoming Magazine, 
Phantom Tollbooth, Music Row Magazine, ChristianMusicToday.com, Great 
American Country, Country Music Television, Gospel Music Channel, 
WMBI/Moody-Chicago, ABC Radio News, Soul2Soul Radio, Roots Music Report, 
SouthernGospel.com, and local Nashville TV affiliates, WSMV, WKRN, WZTV.

The Songs 4 Worship album series has sold more than 9 million units since 
its debut in 2000 and has been marketed by both Time Life and Integrity 
Records.  Time Life is selling Songs 4 Worship:Country  at mainstream retail 
outlets with Integrity Distribution  servicing the CBA market.

Club Connection Announces Top Ten Country Club And Dance Hits Of 2007

(Nashville, Tenn. - January 14th, 2008) For the fourth consecutive year, 
Marco Promotions' Club Connection surveyed over 200 country nightclubs and 
dance instructors nationwide to determine the most played and most requested 
club and dance titles of the past 12 months.

The fight for the number-one spot on Club Connection's 2007 Top Club and 
Dance Songs chart was a close battle between two songs that ran away from 
the rest of the pack. In the end, Josh Turner's "Firecracker" narrowly beat 
LeAnn Rimes' "Nothin' Better To Do," finishing the year first and second 
respectively. Both songs are current singles.

Three songs that were seemingly made for the club scene claim the third, 
fourth and fifth places on Club Connection's chart. In third place, Blake 
Shelton is raising glasses with "The More I Drink." Trace Adkins is giving 
club-goers confidence in their pick-up lines and dating techniques with "I 
Got My Game On," ranking fourth. Rounding out the top five is Cowboy Troy in 
his effort to get all the ladies on the dance floor, "Hick Chicks."

Current CMA Male Vocalist of the Year Brad Paisley landed at Club 
Connection's number six with his number-one hit "Ticks." In spite of doing 
repair jobs and selling turnips off the back of a truck for a living, 
relationship-challenged guys head to the club to find hope and reassurance 
in the seventh and eighth spots on the Club Connection chart. Toby Keith's 
"High Maintenance Woman" charts at number seven, and Billy Currington's 
number-one song "Good Directions" lands at number eight.

Country newcomers round out Club Connection's top ten for 2007. Luke Bryan's 
debut single "All My Friends Say" from his album "I'll Stay Me" takes the 
number nine position. Finishing up the top ten is Rissi Palmer's "Country 
Girl," which entered the club scene late in the year, but still managed a 
top-ten spot on the club chart.

Steve Holy's "Brand New Girlfriend," the number one club song for 2006, 
continued its popularity in 2007 to take the number one re-current position. 
Rodney Atkins's 2006 number one song "If You're Going Through Hell" earned 
the second highest re-current rotation for 2007.


Club Connection's Top Ten Club And Dance Hits Of 2007
1. Josh Turner, "Firecracker"
2. LeAnn Rimes, "Nothin' Better To Do"
3. Blake Shelton, "The More I Drink"
4. Trace Adkins, "I Got My Game On"
5. Cowboy Troy, "Hick Chicks"
6. Brad Paisley, "Ticks"
7. Toby Keith, "High Maintenance Woman"
8. Billy Currington, "Good Directions"
9. Luke Bryan, "All My Friends Say"
10. Rissi Palmer, "Country Girl"

The "New Queen of Bluegrass" has a "Good Thing Going" with new album 
debuting at #1

Nashville, TN - The IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) and 
SPBGMA (Society for Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America) have their 
hands full with Ms. Bluegrass herself, Rhonda Vincent.  Here we are thirty 
four years since Vincent received her first award from the SPBGMA for Best 
Single Recording for "Muleskinner Blues", and not only is Vincent still 
kicking, but she's on top of the world with her 2008 album, "Good Thing 
Going" debuting at number one on Billboard's Bluegrass charts.

"I am thrilled!" said Rhonda Vincent. "It is particularly gratifying since I 
co-wrote five songs on this album. That makes it even more special to me."

Rhonda Vincent may have received multiple awards for her ability to wow 
people with anything with strings, but nothing may have been as rewarding as 
her accomplishment of "Good Thing Going," which very well may be her most 
challenging and personal album yet. Vincent is known for her sweet sounding 
vocals, fiery mandolin picking, and her massive touring schedules.

Rhonda will be kicking off her "Good Thing Going" tour on January 18th.  For 
the complete touring schedule, go to www.rhondavincent.com or 
www.rounder.com.

Texan Zane Lewis Makes National Debut With Eponymous CD, Set For March 11 
Release

Nashville, TN (January 14, 2008) --  Sixth-generation Texan Zane Lewis 
laughed out loud at the use of "eponymous," and asked, "wouldn't it just be 
easier to say 'self-titled?"  Lewis, as you'll discover, isn't much for 
fancy talk (or idle chatter); the long, tall, guitar-slinging 
singer/songwriter is much more interested in making music, and he gets 
straight down to the nitty-gritty on his first nationally-released CD, ZANE 
LEWIS, due out March 11.

From the opening notes of the disc's first track, "Welcome To The Southland" 
(B. Terry/B. Crister), you know that this is a singer blessed with a big 
dose of Skynyrd - and a heap of George Jones - deep in his soul.  A 
hell-raising "Yeah" and ringing electric guitars kick off the track - and 
drummer Tommy Harden (Big & Rich; Jack Ingram; Taylor Swift) earned 
double-scale on this one.  It's a high-amped, in-your-face, tour-de-force 
party song - but Southern to the core, saluting everything from football to 
fishin'; from beer to homegrown greens.  Zane's vocal style is distinctive, 
rich and edgy; there may be more rock than country in his voice on this cut, 
but the man can sing.  On the album's first single, "Come With Me," written 
by Nashville hit men Brandon Hart and Mark D. Sanders, Zane powers things 
down and "channels" Elvis Presley's sexy snarl. He handles the rangy, 
love-in-the-making lyric with an easy confidence that's as appealing as his 
bad boy good looks - and every bit as believable as the more rockin' tracks.

Kudos to producers Lex Lipsitz (Shooter Jennings, Jessi Colter, Wade Bowen), 
and singer/songwriter Brett James for  capturing the energy and spirit of 
Zane Lewis, and for bringing out the best in the extraordinary songs that 
Zane personally selected or co-wrote for this project.  Session leader and 
rhythm guitarist Curt Ryle (Steve Holy; Taylor Swift; Carolyn Dawn Johnson) 
also deserves a nod for assembling an A-list group of players with some 
heavy creds.  Album highlights abound and include the sweeping ballad, 
"Leavin'" written by Brandon Hart, Liz Hengberger and Tommy Lee James. Tasty 
fiddle work by Joe Spivey (Kenny Chesney; Faith Hill; Trick Pony) and 
masterful steel guitar and dobro by Scotty Sanders (Brooks & Dunn; Trisha 
Yearwood; Trace Adkins) are the perfect complement to Zane's vocal 
performance.  "This'll Be A Memory," with its visually-stirring lyric, and 
Gary Smith's signature keyboard work (Dolly Parton; Tim McGraw; Randy 
Travis), is a mid-tempo with an unforgettable chorus and a lyric that tells 
the story of a man taking note of the "little" things that fill our hearts 
long after love has gone.  Lewis co-wrote "Fly" with Jamie Richards, and 
it's a sweeping testament to the freedom found in following your dreams. "I 
believe living with a free-spirit is the essence of life," Zane says.  "But 
those of us who live for the day are often misunderstood. We're all just 
experiencing what life brings, and loving the moment ... we've learned to 
fly."

Zane's been flying high on the Texas honky-tonk circuit with "Bad Ass 
Country Band," a song he co-wrote with Greg Crowe and Lex Lipsitz.  Charged 
with the turbo lead guitar of Troy Lancaster (Brooks and Dunn; Sara Evans; 
Jack Ingram), the track tells the Zane Lewis story - and kicks some serious 
a** in the process. "Rocking out live is what drives me," he says.  "Getting 
the crowd jacked up is why I make music. I set out to write a fuel-injected 
anthem that embodies our stage spectacle. And now I'm pimpin' the country 
one show at a time!"

ZANE LEWIS is a Slant Records release, due in stores March 11.  It's a fine 
follow up to Zane's previous CD, the Texas-only issue, THIS TOWN, which 
generated three Texas Music chart hits ("This Town," "Beer Drinkin' Women," 
"I Hate To See Her Go").

THE GRASCALS GUEST ON "AN INTIMATE EVENING WITH EDDIE STUBBS"

NASHVILLE, TENN.  (January 16, 2008)-The Grascals were guests of their good 
friend Eddie Stubbs on January 10 as part of his monthly "An Intimate 
Evening with Eddie Stubbs" series at the Country Music Hall of Fame & 
Museum.  The Grammy®-nominated sextet entertained a full house in the museum's 
Ford Theater as the two-hour program aired live on 650 AM WSM and online at 
http://www.wsmonline.com/.  The show re-aired on January 11 on XM 10 
America.


During the course of the evening The Grascals performed "Today I Started 
Loving You Again," along with two new songs, "Indiana" and "Happy Go Lucky," 
all of which will be included on their next Rounder album, scheduled for 
release later this year.  They also announced that Vince Gill joined them in 
the studio on a song called "The Sad Wind Sighs."


Stubbs' conversation with The Grascals prompted plenty of laughter and fond 
recollections of their career achievements to date-from winning the IBMA's 
coveted Entertainer of the Year award for the second consecutive year, to 
earning Grammy nominations for their first two albums; from performing on 
the Grand Ole Opry, touring with Dolly Parton and recording with the 
Jordanaires and George Jones, to performing with Dierks Bentley on The Late, 
Late Show with Craig Ferguson.  The group also talked about their 
sponsorship agreement with Mayberry's Finest Brand Foods, a line of 35 
Southern-seasoned stews, chilis, vegetables and baking mixes inspired by The 
Andy Griffith Show.  They wrote and recorded the Mayberry's Finest jingle, 
which they performed live for the "Intimate Evening" audience, and have 
recorded radio and Web commercials for the product line, with television 
spots to follow.  According to Marcela Gomez, President of Diversity Brands, 
the company that produces, distributes and markets Mayberry's Finest, "Andy 
[Griffith] likes the jingle and loves The Grascals."

BRAND NEW SOPHMORE RELEASE!

SMITH MUSIC GROUP JOINS THE NEST WITH THE FIRST SINGLE LAUNCH ON FEBRUARY 
4TH!

NASHVILLE-January 12-2008-"Since New Year's I have been doing nothing but 
talking to radio programmers about 2008, and they are very excited about 
DESPERATE HEARTS.  There is as much anticipation about this new record as 
anything on the horizon.  I have the same feeling about the Bart Crow Band 
as I did right before the Randy Rogers Band and Stoney LaRue broke.  The 
stage is set for a huge success."  Bob Mitchell is Vice President of 
Promotions at Smith Music Group, a company that for over a decade has helped 
usher in the new age of independent artists and has provided a clear cut 
avenue for these artists to take their music to the world.  On March 4th The 
BART CROW BAND touches down with their much anticipated sophomore effort 
DESPERATE HEARTS on Smith Entertainment Records. The first single 
"Understand" will fly into the open arms of radio on February 4th!

FINALLY, the band's debut record release in 2005, made a profound impression 
on the industry generating a firm expectation that the Bart Crow Band is 
destined to be one of the greats in Texas music.  Selling thousands of 
copies and taking rank as the best selling record on LonestarMusic.com for 5 
straight months, FINALLY laid a long steady road towards stardom and it was 
"Wear My Ring" that put BCB on the map.  The single rested in the Texas 
Music Chart's Top 15 for over 20 straight weeks and is still known today in 
current rotation as "the song that just won't go away."  The second single 
"Driftin' In The Wind" ended up in the top 10 of the most played songs on 
Texas Music Radio in 2007. The song became such a fan favorite that the band 
decided to offer a new rearranged version of the song on their brand new 
record release.

The title DESPERATE HEARTS gives the impression of a ballad soaked 
anthology, but do not be fooled.  This record gets down right country with 
songs like "Back Down," a pile driver of a tune that pushes hard against the 
green-eyed monster, and "Once A Day," an old school country regimen of daily 
heartbreak complete with pace the room rhythm and weary fiddle cries.  The 
first single "Understand" is a drive down that famous Texas music highway 
with country plains on one side and rocky terrain on the other.  Around the 
bend is a host of upward climbs with tunes like "Change" that pounds your 
head against a wall when the world around you becomes alien and your "sick 
and tired" has reached its limit.  "Sweet Imitations" is Crow's version of 
the "cheaters blues" that enters with a slow and silky confession and moves 
steadily into breaks of angsty repent.  Coming full circle the title track 
is a rock song in country clothing, hot on the trail of loneliness mistaken 
for love.

"Sometimes it's hard to tell when you're being lied to, but you always know 
the truth when you hear it.  Bart is genuine and passionate in his approach 
to music which he trumpets from his pedestal of albums and live music."
-Jason Boland/Jason Boland and The stragglers

"The Bart Crow Band is great!  Bottom line.  He continues to impress me with 
one great song after another.  You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who 
works as hard at pleasing his fans not only
through recorded music, but also on stage and definitely in person!"
-Justin Frazell/KPLX "The Wolf" Dallas

"The Bart Crow Band is what this scene has been needing for quite some time. 
A fan favorite with rockin' tunes.  I am Looking forward to a long, 
successful career from these guys."
-Shayne Hollinger/PD Mandatory FM Stephenville


DESPERATE HEARTS will be available on March 4th at national retailers 
everywhere and online at your favorite web and download sites.  For tour 
date information, photos and the BCB diary updates check out
