I posted over the weekend that I was nominated for an International Music and Entertainment Association (IMEA) Award this year! As was true last year, this is a complete surprise! IMEA recognizes independent musicians, and I am so excited to be nominated as the Christian/Gospel Male Artist of the Year.

IMEA is also giving everyone the opportunity to vote for nominees before the ceremony. The voting portion counts 1/5 of the final tally. The deadline is August 27. If you want to vote, just click on the IMEA badge below and it will take you to the page. After you enter your email address, scroll down to #16 to my awards category. After clicking next to my name (if you decide to choose me :)), scroll to the bottom of the page and click “submit”. It should take less than a minute. If you prefer using the direct link, it is http://www.imeaawards.com/vote/music/ .

To thank you for voting, if you are interested, please send me a message (by email, text, Facebook, phone, etc.), and I will send you a free download of a song from the new album when it is finished. I will be posting updates soon, but the album is almost ready! Thank you for your interest in the music!
