As we rapidly approach the end of 2010, it’s the perfect time and season to say thank you to the men and women who play our fine family of artists on your radio station, satellite broadcast, or internet program. We’re grateful for you and the work you do, and we’re proud to partner with you in it. Thank you for your ever-faithful friendship and support!
Crossroads wishes you the very best for the coming year and always!
Sincerely,
Jim Stover, Ty Gilpin
Crossroads Radio
As of January 2009, Crossroads has now implemented a download process through our web site in which DJ’s can easily download your single release via a secure web page. For our DJ friends who have not moved over to this technology, Crossroads will still make available an actual CD Sampler as we have in the past. This new process will enable us to deliver singles in a more timely fashion and provide any additional updated information quickly. As word grows of this new opportunity, we expect to see the number of outlets receiving our single releases to increase greatly over time. We have already seen DJ’s from Norway and South America sign up for this delivery system! This will be a great benefit to those who release with Crossroads. Jim Stover, director of radio here at Crossroads states, “After surveying a large block of broadcasters, we’re excited to be moving to digital delivery for our single releases. With this modern method of “shipping songs,” radio professionals across the country and around the globe now have instant, equal access to the Southern and Bluegrass Gospel music produced and distributed by Crossroads!”
Every month, Crossroads delivers new single releases on our top label artists, such as The Talley Trio, The Kingdom Heirs, Ivan Parker, The Inspirations, Mark Bishop, Lauren Talley, The Kingsmen, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, The Collingsworth Family, Janet Paschal and The McKameys (just to name a few!), and we offer slots monthly to Independent Artists interested in growing their ministries. Your single release if offered right next to today’s top charting Gospel Artists.
A flat fee of $600 is the price for having your single released with Crossroads. You can release multiple singels at appropriate intervals, usually every 4-6 months.
Crossroads is interested in helping you grow your ministry by exposing your work to a greater Christian community. Please email us by simply clicking on the email address below or call us at 828-684-3066 ext. 311.

Each year at the National Quartet Convention, Crossroads hosts an event where groups can chat with the artists and get liners for their radio programs. Here’s a video of Lauren Talley explaining what happens:
Here she records one:
Pinnacle recording artist Michael Jason Frost was recently in the studio with Colleen Addair, programming director for WIVK 107.7 in Knoxville, TN. Colleen has been nominated by the Country Music Association for Personality of the Year on several occasions. She hosts two nationally syndicated programs with Classic Country USA and Songs of Faith. After hearing Frost’s new Pinnacle release by Crossroads, she said she felt compelled to have him in the studio for an on air interview, the first on her show for a southern gospel artist. ”I was so impressed by the vocals, production and songwriting, I felt compelled to feature several of the songs on the show”, stated Addair.
The new CD can be purchased at www.michaeljasonfrost.com or can be downloaded at crossroadsmusic.com as well. The project is also available at the Miracle Theatre in Pigeon Forge, TN. where Frost performs.
