[Music] The Promise – Mississippi Mass Choir

It has been 10 years since the Mississippi Mass Choir released new music, and radio is quickly taking notice. Just one month after being serviced to programmers, the choir’s new single, “The Promise,” is #23 on Billboard’s Gospel Radio chart and #29 on Mediabase.

“We are ecstatic about the response to ‘The Promise,’” says Mississippi Mass executive director Jerry Mannery, who co-wrote the song. “After a decade away from recording, we knew God was calling us to release new music. This song is an extension of Mississippi Mass Choir’s roots: 200 voices lifted in harmony with a fresh sound and renewed energy, reminding people that the promises of God are still yes and amen.” 

One of those voices is the lead singer and co-writer Stan Jones, who also produced “The Promise”. “This is 100% a song of faith,” says Jones. “Even in the midst of the enormous chaos and confusion going on around us, we have to hold on to the promises of God.”   

“The Promise” also features the electrifying vocals of Myron Butler, who says the song is “a powerful anthem for the world right now, put forth by a powerful, historic ensemble.” “I am proud to be a part of this moment in Mississippi Mass history,” adds Butler. 

“The Promise” was part of a much-heralded Mississippi Mass Choir live recording at Word of Life Church in Flowood, MS, that also included special guest(s) Tina Campbell, Brian Courtney Wilson, Crystal Aikin, Rev. Milton Biggham, and Paul Porter. That project, “We Still Believe,” will be released later this year and will be the 11th Mississippi Mass Choir album.

Currently celebrating 34 years of ‘serving God through song,’ the Mississippi Mass Choir has received numerous accolades, including three Grammy Awards nominations, 12 Stellar Gospel Music Awards – including the Thomas A.

Dorsey Notable Achievement Awards, induction into The Mississippi Music Museum Hall of Fame, Billboard Gospel Artist of the Year and Gospel Record of the Year recognition, a Soul Train Music Award, and countless other honors.

They have spread the Gospel through song on international stages in Japan, Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, the Bahamas, South Africa, the Canary Islands, and Greece, where they were the first Gospel group to perform at the historic Acropolis in Athens.

[Music] Follow – Bukola Anney

Almost 20 years ago, God shined his light upon my heart. Called me, an atheist, out of darkness into His marvellous light. My faith and conviction in God remain my greatest miracle. 20 years of believing, trusting, never looking back, never going back. Only by grace!

This song is my heart’s cry to my Lord and Savior. It’s been 20 years this year since I have followed you, Jesus. As the lyrics say, make of me what you want, do with me what you will. I vow to follow after you forever and ever.

Amen.

Complementing the song is a heartfelt music video that illustrates the experiences of children in the foster care system. The video was inspired by Arrington’s connection with Kelly Hughes, director of Foster Love Project, after a generous contribution was made to Arrington’s Kickstarter campaign by a relative of Hughes.

From Steel City to Soulful Sounds: John Vento’s “Brick by Brick” is the Blue-Collar Album We’ve Been Waiting For

PITTSBURGH, PA –May 15, 2023 – Blue-collar music veteran, John Vento has announced the release of his highly anticipated album, “Brick By Brick,” on May 19th, 2023. The album has been in the making for three years and is a true testament to Vento’s passion and dedication to his craft.

Produced by Vento and fellow Pittsburgh music stalwart, David Granati, “Brick By Brick” is a rock and roots-inspired album that captures the essence of Vento’s musical journey. The album is an ode to his blue-collar background and the struggles and triumphs that shaped his life. With his signature gritty vocals, Vento takes listeners on a reflective journey through americana, telling the tales of the working man.

JV 1

The album features all-newly recorded and mastered versions of several of Vento’s chart-topping singles, as well as previously unreleased material. 

John explains, ”Three years ago, I got in touch with David Granati to schedule some studio time. We wanted to finish a few songs that we had started, but never completed, on our last project (“Love, Lust, & Other Wreckage” – 2018). These sessions were my first studio vocal recordings since I had two vocal cord procedures the prior year. But thanks to the coaching of Beth Claussen and some of Dave’s homemade red wine, I got through it!  Finishing those few tunes led to a creative surge (maybe it was the wine), and the next thing I knew, we were working on a bunch of new songs.’

“Even though I had no plans for another album, I came up with a working title of ‘Brick by Brick.’ It meant taking it one song at a time and creating whatever might come in a structured method. We released five new tracks over the first year (2020 – 2021), but by late 2021, I realized we were rushing the process and not giving the material all the love and attention needed to create good music. That’s when I got serious and critical with everything we were working on. With David Granati, Bob Zigerelli, and George Perilli as my main guys, it was easy to get serious and critical! These dudes are pros and high-level music makers, a true blessing for someone like me. Now,15 new songs later, ten of which will be featured on the album, we’re excited to release it!”
