Michael W. Smith recently wrapped his highly successful
“Celebration Tour” and readies for another concert run that already reports dramatic sales momentum.
The “Christmastime Tour” will visit 15 cities throughout Nov. and Dec., launching in Duluth, Ga., and wrapping
in Smith’s hometown of Nashville, Tenn.
The “Christmastime Tour” will usher in the holiday spirit, as Smith performs perennial favorites with special
guests Point of Grace and The Katinas. “I love this time of year, and I
especially love Christmas music,” comments Smith. “This tour is really special for me. To be on stage
with great singers like Point of Grace and The Katinas is overwhelming. Often, during the evening, I stop
singing and just listen; I think I enjoy the evening more than anybody else in the building! What
a joy to celebrate Christ’s birth with these good friends.”
For the month of February, Bleach and
John Reuben will be joining forces and embarking on a co-headlining
tour. John’s amazing new record Professional Rapper
will be in stores on December 2nd! Tour dates will be releasing in the near future, so stay tuned!
Also, John informed us he hopes to be taking out a live band on the road with him for the first time
for this tour. You won't want to miss it!
This week Kutless finished up putting those last minute touches
on their new album Sea of Faces. “This album is a step above their debut release...” says Kyle
(drummer). Their first single “Treason” is heading up the Christian rock charts right now, debuting at
#23 on the top 30! If you get a chance, call you local radio station and request “Treason” to spice up your
Thanksgiving! Sea Of Faces drops February 24th!
Here's an updated from Ohio-bred rock band Sanctus Real...
"Greetings all! Well, we are done with Festival Con Dios. As expected, it was a great time. It was good getting
to know some more great bands. We are now at home, in between shows, writing for the new record and chilin’
with family and friends. We just got through recording our track for the VeggieTales Rocks CD’s
(not sure of the “official” name). I don’t think we ever saw ourselves covering a song by a cucumber or
tomato or whatever, but good times!
We have a few shows coming up through the end of the year, so if you can come out, come join us.
After the new year, we will be going back to the studio to record our sophomore release.
We are really excited about the next record and can’t wait for you to hear it.
Well, that’s all for now. Until next time…"
In a recent meeting with Word record label family, Terry Jones announced her departure
as part of premiere vocal group Point of Grace.
"For sometime now, and after much prayer and counsel, I have felt God calling me to be home and retire from
Point of Grace. With three young children and a wonderful husband at home, it has become increasingly more
difficult to juggle it all, and my desire is for me to be the mommy and wife I want to be for my family and
myself. My husband Chris has always shown me nothing but amazing support for my career and ministry,
and now we are in full agreement that God desires for us to simplify things," said Jones. "For over 13
years Heather, Shelley and Denise have been my sisters and our relationships are very strong. I am not
leaving my relationship with the girls but will now be supporting them in a different way. Point of Grace
will always be a part of my heart and my soul."
Jones will continue performing with Point of Grace through March 1st, 2004 including the upcoming Michael W.
Smith Christmas tour beginning November 29th.
Plans for the next studio recording as well as additional Girls of Grace Conferences are well underway for
next year. Upon Terry's exit from Point of Grace, long-time friend Leigh Cappillino will step
in to fill the fourth spot.
"It was important for the four of us to unanimously agree on who would be the perfect person to
continue the call that God has for Point of Grace," said Denise Jones. " As we sought God's direction,
it became abundantly clear that Leigh was the obvious choice. Heather, Shelley, and I felt it was imperative
that Terry be as comfortable and at peace with the decision with the new member as we were. We are so
thankful that this is the case with Leigh. She is not only extremely talented, but her integrity,
love for people, and heart for the Lord have been incredible for us to watch over the years and we
welcome her into our family."
“The Christmas Song,” the bonus cut on Tait’s new album,
Lose This Life, releases to radio this month for the holiday season. Reminiscent of Nat King Cole’s
musical style, the song was produced by Brown Bannister (Steven Curtis Chapman, Avalon, Warren Barfield) and
recorded live to 2-track format with players from the London Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic.
“’The Christmas Song’ is my favorite Nat King Cole track,” says Michael Tait. “No matter what
time of year it is or what the weather is doing outside, I still get that Christmas feeling. When I was growing
up, we would play that record every holiday season and I would sing to it, pretending I was Nat King Cole. I was
the youngest Nat King Cole fan I knew! Recording this song was a tribute to one of my all-time favorite vocalists.”
And speaking of the holidays, after returning home from the acclaimed !HERO tour, Michael will have a
full home as 30 of his family members come to town for Thanksgiving next week!
After setting the standard for global worship anthems, celebrated rock group Delirious? will release
World Service on February 10, 2004, which marks a new chapter for Delirious? with a fresh collection of
inspired songs created especially for the corporate worship experience. Redefining the meaning of praise and
worship, Delirious? has sold more than 2,000,000 albums worldwide and are regarded as the forerunners of the
modern worship movement.
With landmark international classics like “I Could Sing of Your Love Forever,” “Did You Feel the Mountains
Tremble,” and “Shout To The North,” the songs of Delirious? have made a significant impact on the modern
worship landscape around the globe. World Service, produced by Delirious? and Julian Kindred
(Mercy Me, Sonicflood), features 12 new tracks and marks their finest release to date. Serving as an
all-embracing experience, Delirious? returns to their roots of progressive and introspective worship tunes
and share new worship songs that are destined to become staples within the church. Speaking of new stuff
from Delirious?, the band's official newsletter recently made this little announcement...
"The big-voiced deal-makers down here at Furious [Records] have just emerged from their soundproofed
offices with some pretty tasty news for those of you living in North America. You know how we hate to
leave you out of things, right? And you know how we were gutted not to be able to get you copies of our
recent DVD release, Archive:d - the indispensable guide to all D:visual things. Well, just moments
ago the Men With Big Shoulders down at the office lifted the lid on an exciting new development.
We've just had clearance from EMI to sell the fantastic Archive:d DVD to you direct from our website.
This is the first DVD to carry the D: seal of approval, and, at the risk of sounding like some truly awful TV
ad, this product will not be available in store.
And just to show that we're serious about keeping things nice and fair, we're making you a deal that
we've not offered to anyone else in the world: buy yourself a copy of the Archive:d DVD and well
send you not one but two free copies of a very special two-song cd. Containing spectacular tracks from the
forthcoming World Service album, 'Majesty (Here I Am)' and 'Rain Down' have already ripped up
the mp3.com charts. Sure, you can still download them for free, but sort yourself out with a copy of Archive:d
and as well as the bonus of having two copies of the cd to hold in your hand, one of them will be personally signed
by the band. The only problem for you is deciding which one to give away…"

and a special quote from TobyMac!
BEC Recordings artist Jeremy Camp is slated to release an album
that comes highly requested by his fans, Carried Me: The Worship Project on February 10th.
Currently writing for his sophomore release projected to hit stores fall 2004, BEC releases Carried Me
in answer to numerous requests for Camp to share an essential and favorite part of his live show - worship.
Performing worship is not something new for him, nor is it a recently added segment to his concert play list.
In the mid 1990’s Camp was leading worship and playing shows across the Southern California area. A few years
later as he sat in the hospital room next to his dying wife he first sang the song “Revive Me” – a song that
will be included on Carried Me. The compilation of songs in this project provides an outline of the faith
that has carried Camp through life’s highs and lows. The track listing includes other original songs such as
“Longing Heart” as well as reworked standards, “Trust In You”.
“The songs are ones that have meant so much to me in my life,” comments Camp. “Each of them has a special place
in my heart because I remember singing them at different times, good times and hard times,“ Camp explains.”
“Jeremy Camp has been an inspiration to thousands and is he to me as well,” stated Brandon Ebel, President of BEC Recordings. “We feel blessed to be working with a godly artist who has such a high level of integrity. Carried Me is the perfect companion record to Stay,
and will tide people over for the amazing new album he will put out in the fall of 2004.”
Sparrow Records’ artist Steven Curtis Chapman was awarded the American Music Award for Favorite Artist in
Contemporary Inspirational Music at Sunday’s show held live in Los Angeles at the Shrine Auditorium.
The American Music Awards were broadcast nationwide on ABC.
This is Chapman’s second time to be nominated and his first win in this category, a category that has only
been recognized for the last three years in the 31 years of American Music Awards broadcast.
Thrilled by the win, Chapman comments, “It’s great to know we have a home at this awards show. Because of
this genre still be new to the AMA’s, along with fellow nominees Third Day and MercyMe I feel this is more
of a group win than the winner and a wonderful way to represent Christian music.”
Chapman was also a presenter for the evening, co-presenting with Sara Rue (ABC’s “Less Than Perfect”) as
they introduced The Bomb Squad, an unsigned band that won the Coca-Cola New Music Award Competition and
the opportunity to perform on the AMA’s.
Speaking of the AMA's, Third Day attended the American Music Awards this past weekend as a nominee for
Favorite Artist in the Contemporary Inspirational Music category. The band walked through red carpet
interviews with outlets including ABC (AMA pre-show broadcast), Access Hollywood, E!, Extra and Entertainment
Tonight. The 31st annual American Music Awards aired live from the Shrine Auditorium during a three-hour special
on the ABC Television Network.
Third Day received this nod after a GRAMMY win in February for Come
Together in the Best Rock/Gospel Album category and a Song of the Year ASCAP award in April.
Headed to the studio with producer Paul Ebersold (Skillet, 3 Doors Down, Jane's Addiction, Sister Hazel)
to record a 2004 release, Third Day is already planning its spring and fall touring runs, visiting more than
80 cities next year. More information on its new music and the highly anticipated 2004 tour will follow in
coming weeks.
The current issue of Rolling Stone magazine (w/ Jessica Simpson on the cover) features John Reuben in regards to performing at a new Christian rock club
called Club Three Degrees. The article briefly mentions Reuben among a few other artists who have performed at the club.
However, giving a more negative angle to the story, the author doesn't hesitate to point out that MxPx refuses
to play the club because the owners apparently demand the artists preach from the stage. MxPx's frontman Mike Herrara
go as far as comparing the club owners to communists. It's an interesting read needless to say...
Jeremy Camp has been working hard to put the finishing touching on his fresh new worship album, Carry Me.
It features many new song, but also some very familiar tunes. Jeremy will be heading to Nashville the first
part of December to record the final two songs “Beautiful One” (written by Tim Hughes who wrote the smash hit
“Here I Am to Worship”) and also covering “Wonderful Savior” by Chris Tomlin. This album is sure going to
be one to pick up to start the year off right! Also the Adoration: A Worship Tour is excited to
announce that Jeremy will be opening that tour as it heads across the states- headlining that tour
is The Newsboys and Rebecca St. James.
Kutless is in Seattle, WA this week working hard to meet the
February 24th release date of their upcoming new album Sea of Faces. The guys just returned

A new website for a new album. This is Blindside's philosophy. The band reports, "For those of us who have heard this album
it is hard to contain the excitement. Most bands take a step or two between albums. Blindside takes giant leaps.
Lyrically and musical it is beyond what you can imagine." But what's the hype all about? Well, Blindside's forthcoming
release About A Burning Fire is in progress, but the band wants you to download the title cut -- for free!
For a limited time you will be able to download the exclusive track. "It's our way of saying thank you to all of
you for your support," says Blindside in their newsletter yesterday. "Plus we just really wanted you to hear it."
The boys from Sweden also recently announced a special guest on the new record... "As most of probably have
already heard by now Billy Corgan (ex Smashing Pumpkins, Zwan) was a guest on the new Blindside
record. Billy was gracious enough to play on a track called 'Hooray, It's L.A.'" Nice!
Multi-platinum, multi-Grammy and Dove Award-winning band, Jars of Clay tops

Michael W. Smith wrapped “The Celebration Tour” in his home state
of W. Va. recently with a sold-out performance at Big Sandy Superstore Arena in Huntington.
Just prior to taking the stage, Smith was presented with the Distinguished West Virginian Award by state Sen.
Steve Harrison.
“He’s known the world over for his inspirational music, and I thought ‘This is certainly something he’s
deserving of,’” said state Sen. Harrison, who bestowed the honor. “He said it wasn’t necessary, but I told
him I thought it was long overdue.”
Commemorating Smith’s unprecedented career in Christian music, “The Celebration Tour” offered fans an
evening of hits. The 19-date tour visited arenas nationwide and was seen by a cumulative audience exceeding
140,000. Having grossed more than 3.5 million and selling out 17 venues, this is Smith’s most successful
tour to date.
Michael W. Smith concerts have long been recognized as key events in major markets across the country.
This run was no exception. “This concert tour was one of the highlights of the fall season. We promoted
four dates and each one not only met, but surpassed our expectations,” says Roy Morgan of Premier Productions.
On the heels of “The Celebration Tour,” Smith embarks on the 15-date “Christmastime Tour” with special guests
Point of Grace and The Katinas. Launching Nov. 28 in Duluth, Ga., the

L.A.’s famed nightspot Club Lush was the scene of a book release party for a new book that explores the
growing link between spirituality and rock music entitled, Faith, God & Rock ‘n’ Roll
by L.A. based author Mark Joseph and published by Baker Book House/Sanctuary Publishing.
The party included live performances by Dex Alexander, formally of the group Altogether Separate,
Seattle rockers MxPx and former Extreme and Van Halen frontman Gary Cherone.
Also in attendance on the day of the release of their newest album Payable On Death, were the four
members of P.O.D., Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine who wrote the foreword to
Faith, God & Rock ‘n’ Roll and Jon Micah Sumrall, frontman of Seattle rock edge band Kutless.
Partygoers celebrated P.O.D.’s big day with a premiere showing of the band’s latest video for the song
‘Will You’. Five lucky members of the band’s street team, The Warrior Klan, won a contest to attend the
party and meet the members of P.O.D. and Joseph.
“It was really an honor to be in the book. I read our chapter and it’s really cool," added MxPx’s Mike Herrera who flew in from Seattle to perform.
In Faith, God & Rock ‘n’ Roll, Joseph examines the current crop of bands and artists with a spiritual
message, looking at the challenges they face in reconciling their rock ‘n’ roll lifestyles with deep rooted r
eligious convictions. Featuring profiles and analyses of artists like U2, P.O.D., Creed, Lifehouse,
Lenny Kravitz, Alice Cooper, Sixpence None The Richer and many others, the book is released at a time when
faith and spirituality have begun to play a central role in media culture, especially in the music scene.

Sparrow Records recording artist Steven Curtis Chapman has
partnered with Family Christian Stores during this holiday season to promote two similar and benevolent
operations - Family Christian Store’s The James Fund and Chapman’s Shaohannah’s Hope Foundation.
The James Fund, a non-profit organization founded by Family Christian Stores, was created to meet the needs
of orphans and widows in the communities that Family Christian serves.
The James Fund promotion, benefiting those orphans and widows in need, will be held in all Family Christian
Stores locations nationwide as well as at FamilyChristian.com, will run in two variations for customers to help
this holiday season. With the purchase of Chapman's current Sparrow Records’ release, All About Love,
or by visiting any Family Christian Stores and adopting a Christmas Barnabas Bear for $5.00, proceeds from
all donations will be distributed to The James Fund and Shaohannah’s Hope. The Barnabas Bears will then be
given to orphans of the local community they were adopted in, and personally delivered by Family Christian
Stores along with Bethany Christian Services. This promotion will run throughout November and December.
Chapman is very excited about this partnership. He affirms, “I am so thankful that Family Christian Stores is engaging in caring for widows and orphans. It’s something God is inviting us to do together. When Family approached me with the idea to tie Shaohannah’s Hope and The James Fund together, I was so encouraged and jumped at the chance.”
Chapman released his second DVD, Steven Curtis Chapman Live, on Tuesday, November 4.
This first-ever live DVD will feature performances from this touring pioneer, filmed from the hugely
successful “Live Out Loud Tour,” a tour experienced by over 200,000 people. Steven Curtis Chapman Live
is marketed for both the fans who caught the “Live Out Loud Tour” as well as those who were not able to see
the show in their area. Live encompasses the energy and passion of behind the scenes footage of the Tour,
including never-before seen b-roll of Chapman backstage and everyone on his tour, as well as the poignant
“Beyond The Gates of Splendor” segment.

October 28. Abigail, a healthy 9 lbs 2 ounces, and mom are healthy and happy. According to a journal
bassist Tai Anderson on ThirdDay.com, guitarist Brad Avery is on baby watch with his third child on the way!
This month Switchfoot features in the American music industry's popular publication Rolling Stone magazine.
Tipped as one of the 'new faces' to look out for we can all sit back a little smugly and say,
'yeah, we knew you'd catch on eventually'.
And then there's Orange in Holland. The mobile phone giant has been so impressed with the 'foots track
"Learning To Breathe" that they made it the main focus of their advertising campaign. The national radio and
TV ads are stirring things up a little, pulling in hundreds of calls each day from the eager Dutch keen
to find out just who this mystery band is.
Finally, there are one or two other treats freshly landed on their mat: "Meant to Live" is currently at number
18 on Billboard's Modern Rock/Alternative charts. The band also won Best Pop Album and Artist of the year at
the San Diego Music Awards. Who knows where things will go next?
Kutless is finishing up work on their next release Sea of Faces
(In Stores Feb. 24, 2004)! Their first single “Treason” will be premiering on the AirOne Radio Network on
November 7th! Make sure you have that station tuned in to find out more. If you don’t get AirOne in your part
of the country, start listening and requesting “Treason” on November 10th at your local Christian rock station!
