[Music] Be Still And Know – Ginny Owens
Dynamic entertainer and multiple award-winning artist Ginny Owens releases new music with her EP titled Be Still and Know. Owens became a household name when she was named the Gospel Music Association’s “New Artist of the Year” in 2000.
Born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi, a degenerative eye condition left Ginny completely blind by the tender age of three. As her vision diminished, her love of music and the piano expanded, and Ginny discovered songwriting as a window into her unseen world. The unique perspectives inspired by her vision impairment have resulted in inspirational lyrics paired with her diverse musicianship to afford her a space on an even more diverse set of stages, including the Sundance Film Festival, Lilith Fair and the White House, and recordings that transcend genre expectations.
Two-time GRAMMY-nominated and nine-time DOVE Award-winning duo Jeff & Sheri Easter are set to release Treasure on Friday, February 10 via Gaither Music Group.
The Gospel music sweethearts share everyday stories of life and love on the 10-track record, produced by Jeff and Sheri and Greg Cole.
“Every album we record begins with an idea or a song, and somehow by the end of the process one to two years later becomes a cohesive message of where we are in life,” said Sheri. “I think this album has illuminated the idea of this Treasure we all carry in our hearts and the desperate need to share it with the world around us. People are hurting, struggling, suffering; and the light God has entrusted to us can make the difference in the darkest of places.”
Treasure features guest performances including The Archers, who lend their voices to “Sunshine on a Cloudy Day” while country singer/songwriter Mo Pitney is featured on the song “Here Comes Jesus.”

“The older I get, I realize how important words are to songs like ‘Here Comes Jesus,’” says Jeff. “No matter how bad I mess up He loves me anyway.”

Songs from the new recording can be heard on Gaither Radio on Pandora, Gaither Radio on Spotify, Gaither Radio on Amazon and other Gaither playlists as well as Apple Music’s Front Porch Country Gospel playlist.
