Tuesday Tidbits

Here are several little noteworthy things going on in Southern Gospel:

• The second round of voting for the Singing News Fan Awards is now open! You must be a subscriber to vote. Vote here!
• The Dove Awards air on the Gospel Music Channel tonight at 7 p.m. (Central time). Jason Crabb and the Isaacs performed last Thursday night, so I expect they will be on the televised portion. Karen Peck Gooch also sang with other female artists in a tribute to Whitney Houston.
• Also, Rob Patz and Rhonda Frye were in Atlanta last week for the awards. Listen to them talk about their experiences!
• Congratulations to Mark Trammell and Jim Brady who were both named to the National Quartet Convention Board last week!
• If you haven't seen Legacy Five's concept video of "Ask Me Why," check it out!
• Leslie Taylor has announced her departure from the Taylors as the soprano. Wish her the best as she seeks new opportunities and ministries.
• EDIT: The Ball Brothers announced this morning that Joshua Ball is retiring from the group. Read their statement on their Facebook page. (Probably the best group-member-leaving announcement I've seen!)
