{EHA-Nashville, TN} Kent Smith, Director of the USAGEM Area Fellowship Group that covers North Alabama and parts of South Tennessee, announced today the area introductory concert series for the non-profit 501c3 organization. The fellowship group aims to increase awareness of Gospel Music and especially introduce the music of affiliate quartets, groups, and other USAGEM artists. A goal of the fellowship and association as a whole is to increase concerts for the artists while serving the needs of the ministries who may be looking for exceptional talent and ministry-minded artists to fill a concert, singing, or event date. The local fellowship is based out of Huntsville, AL and Kent Smith runs the group under the direction of the main headquarters in Nashville, TN. Potential members can go to the main website, www.usagem.org to apply for membership. The organization covers 5 genres; Southern Gospel, Bluegrass Gospel, Christian Country, Contemporary Christian, and Black Gospel. The local chapter meets for fellowship and support among its members and is simply an arm of the larger body and operates by all the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors.
The USAGEM Area Fellowship Group’s introductory concert series schedule is as follows: (All concerts start at 7 pm. There is no admission charge, but a love-offering will be taken.)
