Press Release Body = Charles Brady of SoGospel describes contemporary Gospel artist Avery Stafford as \"One of the most moving, smoothest & soulful voices in Gospel Music I have ever had the chance to hear!\"
Undignified is the latest album by Avery Stafford, Praise and Worship Pastor from San Jose, CA. It has received incredible reviews from Gospel City, Soul Mag, Gospel Xone, Gospel Cribs, Rap2Soul, Indie-Music, Rikks Revues, and others. Roy Gray of XRadioGospel recently described Stafford in a live interview as \"One of the greatest independent Gospel artists in the world today.\" Yet this anointed vocalist continues to be relatively unknown to the majority of the Gospel industry, UNTIL NOW!
In late November 2005, Bookworld Music, Inc. of Sarasota, FL signed Avery\'s independent record label ASM Records to a major retail distribution deal. Undignified will be ASM\'s first distributed project. Bookworld services the top 100 biggest retailers in the nation PLUS 2900 independent and specialized customers. These retailers include WalMart, Target, Costco, Media Play, and many others. Bookworld Music currently distributes Gospel artists including Shekinah Glory Ministry with great success.
So what makes this particular album unique? Is it the incredible Bay Area artists who collaborated with Avery? Is it the beautiful songs and arrangements on the album? What about the powerful message of Christ\'s saving grace proclaimed in the music? And what about the critically acclaimed music video featuring his Gospel remake of Marvin Gaye\'s How Sweet It Is (2b loved by You!)? Though all of these qualities are present with Undignified, there is still something even more unique. Oliver Springer, DJ for JAM FM in Berlin, Germany writes: \"Stafford has successfully melded Gospel with a goodly portion of R&B, creating a harmonious mixture that will appeal to a broad public. He avoids the pitfalls of other artists who maintain only one level of praise, a turn-off for non-fans of Gospel.\" JAM FM added Undignified to its weekly rotation in February 2005! Something else unique about this album is that Gospel Radio DJs who add Undignified to their rotation often add it to their personal col lection. DJs in North Carolina, California, Texas, Illinois, and even Berlin, Germany have said they listen to Avery\'s music as they drive to and from work. WOW! It is one thing to play an album on the radio. It\'s another thing to also play it for your personal, spiritual edification!
The 2006 Undignified Tour is currently booking ministry events. ASM, in partnership with Bookworld Music, plans to immediately increase Gospel Radio promotion, bookstore appearances, and live events throughout the United States. We cordially invite Churches, Pastors, Gospel Radio Personalities, Ministry Event Coordinators, Conference Directors, etc. to discover this gifted Worship Leader and Contemporary Gospel vocalist. Gospel City says, \"his voice echoes Luther Vandross.\" Find out why Gospel Cribs writes, \"With a voice so vibrant and strong that it sets his listeners off on an exhilarating spiritual journey, the release of UNDIGNIFIED marks the commencement of a new and exciting chapter in the gospel music scene.\" For BOOKING, contact Minister Therian Smith at (408) 823-1337 OR Booking@AveryStafford.com.
