SUPER BOWL CHAMPION INDIANAPOLIS COLTS’ HUNTER SMITH MAKES HIS NATIONAL TV SINGING DEBUT SATURDAY OCT 13 AT 8:00 PM ET/PT ON GOSPEL MUSIC CHANNEL

Connersvine ATLANTA, GA Oct. 3, 2007 -- Sure he can punt, but can he sing?

This may not be the question going through the minds of fans of the World Champion Indianapolis Colts after punter Hunter Smith nails a kick on Sundays, but on Saturday Night, October 13, Smith will show the country that the answer to that question is a booming yes.

Smith played of the biggest stage in sports – The Super Bowl -- and now he takes the stage literally as he and band mate Chris Wilson bring their Christian music duo Connersvine to the Gospel Music Channel cable television network original series Front Row Live. Front Row Live: Connersvine will world premiere nationally on Gospel Music Channel on Sat. October 13 @ 8:00 p.m. ET/PT with several encores that night and throughout the month. Connersvine will be performing music from their just-released, self-titled debut album in a live concert recorded in May under the nose of the AFC South rivals Tennessee Titans in Nashville, TN.

Front Row Live is Gospel Music Channel’s original series featuring powerhouse artists hosting their own concert performances while sharing their musical inspirations in front of specially-invited audiences. Featured artists have included Kirk Franklin, Third Day, Michael W. Smith, The Clark Sisters and Natalie Grant. Upcoming world premieres include a very special show, Calvin Cooke and Friends with special guest Robert Randolph (Oct. 21.).

Smith graduated from Notre Dame and went on to be drafted by the NFL Colts as their punter in addition to be the holder for field goals. He has just begun his ninth season with Indianapolis. Raised with a great appreciation for music, Wilson began playing guitar at the age of ten and was helping on the worship team at his local church by the time he was in middle school. Smith and Wilson met in the summer of 2001, beginning their friendship by leading worship together for a young adult ministry on the south side of Indianapolis. They created Connersvine, which has an acoustic-driven rock sound that communicates through worshipful melodies and passionate vocals.
