I hope you have had the opportunity to hear Zion's latest release compilation #32! This compilation will compliment your music library and allow you to feature some of the finest Southern Gospel available.

Other new projects being released include the latest from Southern Sound, a traditional quartet from Nashville, TN. Their latest project entitled, One Voice was released at National Quartet Convention. The Toney Brother's much anticipated, new release is also available, entitled Now Is The Time. Newlife Quartet celebrated the release of their latest project entitled We'll Be Steppin High. The Lesters are releasing a new project that will be available by the end of this month. It will feature ALL of the popular hits from this incredible group. It is one of those projects that is a "must have" for your music library.

Last month I wrote in depth about our incredible staff at Zion and how blessed Kevin and I are to be surrounded by Christian, dedicated employees! This month I would like to recognize my husband, Kevin McManus.

Those of you who know him, will agree that he is one of the most humble talents you will ever meet. I continue to be amazed by his abilities. Kevin tends to influence every one around him to do a job BETTER than they thought possible. During the production of projects, I have seen him give assurance to talented people who were experiencing a dip in their confidence level. He does this naturally with a gentle word, an expression or humor and manages to motivate artists and musicians toward perfecting their skill.

You may not know that Kevin�s start in music began in Florida when he was 18 years old and had a secular band that grew to gain regional recognition. He went on to work with the Marshall Tucker Band for a number of years, doing the house sound in venues that packed in as many as 75,000 people and featured some of the most popular secular groups of that era.

Over 25 years ago he came to Nashville and continued his career as an engineer and producer of Gospel and Country Music. Obviously, his heart is in Gospel Music but he has had the opportunity to work with many legendary Country Stars including Gene Watson, Willie Nelson, Ray Price, Floyd Cramer, Jack Greene and the list goes on.

He has also been recognized with an Emmy for his work in Television/Audio Production. In fact, video production continues to be a focus of the company. We have recently had the opportunity to work with several talented artists and have produced top quality videos that are literally impacting the world.

Working with Kevin is truly an honor! I am thankful for his God-given talent and for his humble spirit. God surely does know who He can trust all of that talent with!! But above all that, he has the most loving, gentle, giving heart in the world! (I am just wondering if this entitles me to a raise? ha!)

Until next month keep a song in your heart! Also be sure to check out our websites at [url=http://www.zionmusic.com]http://www.zionmusic.com[/url] and [url=http://www.oakvalleystudio.com]http://www.oakvalleystudio.com[/url] for updated information regarding our facilities and artists!!

Kevin McManus is a very nice man.. I wanted to say hi at NQC,.. but you all seemed very busy. I did an interview for a radio special about southern gospel recording studios and producers with Kevin and Chris White back in 1987 or so.. everyone was very gracious. Your company has been good to our station.. we appreciate it!
