Nashville, TN (February 10, 2010) ---- Kanopy Tours announces the upcoming Bloom Tour 2010 that features Margaret Becker, JJ Heller (who has the Top 15 hit in the country with “Your Hands”) and friends. The tour will run April – May and will provide an intimate evening of story and song from the heart of Becker, while showcasing the talents of Heller and friends. The tour is being produced by MaxxLIVE and Patton House Entertainment, with World Vision sponsoring the dates. Tour dates will be announced soon.
"I'm excited to get to be a part of the Bloom Tour with JJ Heller,” says Becker. “I think it's going to be a blast to be on stage with her as we get to connect with our friends, both new and longstanding, who share our love for music and helping people. When I'm asked to be a part of something that helps people in need, which is exactly what this tour is doing through World Vision, then that's something I really do want to be a part of!"
“I have such a passion for excellence in the live show arena,” says Andrew Patton, President, Patton House Entertainment. “Tying this group of musicians together with the MaxxLIVE team is going to be exciting and rewarding. We have had the pleasure of producing a number of tours in the past and this one should be one of the finest."
With an illustrious career that spans twenty-three years and garnered eighteen albums, more than two dozen #1 singles, multiple Dove Awards, four Grammy nominations and seven Songwriter of the Year Awards, Becker, who has performed in front of over three-million people and sold over 2.8 million records, remains one of the most respected singer/songwriters in the Christian industry. Not one to rest on her laurels, Becker continues to receive accolades as her latest project, “Gift Of Love,” which was co-written with David M. Edwards, has been nominated for Choral Project of the Year from Worship Leader Magazine. Since her debut in 1987, Becker’s professional, personal and spiritual growth has also allowed her to expand into other creative areas. Over the years, Becker has contributed essays to a number of Christian publications, contributed to various women's magazines, authored three books, has been a recording producer for such artists as Kelly Minter, Rita Springer & Ginny Owens, opened her own publishing company and is a much sought-after public speaker. Becker has served as an ambassador/artist for World Vision the past seventeen years, and was their first artist-associate in the successful artist associates program and in being such, has helped to shed light on the relief to the less-fortunate provided by World Vision.
JJ Heller has skyrocketed to fame with her latest single, “Your Hands,” which was debuted on the Fox Network show, So You Think You Can Dance, and is currently #14 on the Billboard National Christian Audience chart. The song is from Heller’s third project, Painted Red. Heller began her music career in the spring of 2003, and 6 years and 3 albums later her acoustic-folk sound and heartfelt lyrics have netted the Nashville-based artist a loyal following. Heller is married to songwriter, Dave Heller, who is the co-writer of her hit single and in December 2008 they welcomed their first child, Lucy Love.
