July 2007 has been a successful time for the radio promotion staff of Crossroads Entertainment and Marketing. The month saw songs released by the company reach # 1 on the leading charts of the Gospel Music industry. The Dove Brothers were at the top with Singing News Top 80, Gospel Music News Top 100 and SoGospelNews Weekly Chart with their beautiful ballad “I Can Pray.” The single was the first radio release from the popular quartet’s Never the Same project, shipped to stations in January ’07. “I Can Pray” quickly was named the # 1 add by a majority of reporting stations the month it was received.
Further enhancing this month, Crossroads also had the # 1 Bluegrass Gospel song with Jerry Salley’s “John in the Jordan” on Bluegrass Now’s Gospel Truth chart.
The Crossroads radio team is led by veteran song promoter Jim Stover who offers radio support to all of the company’s major artists. Jim is joined by Ty Gilpin who promotes the Crossroads’ family of Independent Artists as well as the company’s Bluegrass artists.
“We nearly went to the top of all the charts to whom we promote,” said Ty Gilpin. “We had the # 2 song on the Bluegrass Unlimited National survey with Lonesome River Band’s “Lonesome Won’t Get the Best of Me.” It just so happens that Jerry Salley co-wrote that song also. We are blessed to have such talented writers and performers on the label.”
“I agree with Ty,” added Jim Stover. “This company has one of the finest rosters of talent ever assembled under one roof by a record label in any genre. Much credit goes to the Good Lord and our management team for that. What an honor it is to represent these God-gifted artists and songwriters!”
