(Nashville, TN.) September 2, 2011 – StowTown Records (Provident-Integrity Distribution) is proud to announce the release of Part Of The Family from The Collingsworth Family available on September 6, 2011.
Phil and Kim Collingsworth can’t help but smile when fans compare their group to the family singers in “The Sound of Music,†the beloved classic family film. Of course, Phil and Kim only have four children, and are from the state of Ohio, not 1930s Austria. But a family group like this only comes along once in a generation, and when the quality of the music is this rich and timeless, everyone pays attention and tries to find ways to describe them. Ernie Haase, executive producer certainly noticed when they were featured on the Gaither Homecoming tour; he knew immediately that he wanted their compelling and memorable music to be part of the StowTown record label.
As the Collingsworth children have grown into teenagers and young adults, they are becoming award-winning artists in their own right, and Kim Collingsworth is widely known as a show-stopping piano performer. Concertgoers have grown to feel so connected to Phil, Kim, Brooklyn, Courtney, Phillip and Olivia, that they feel almost a “Part of the Family,†appropriately the title of their new CD release. The Collingsworth Family continues to perform all over the world, sharing their story, their music, and their love for God.
The twelve-song project, Part of the Family, was produced by Wayne Haun and features stellar arrangements of songs penned by Bill & Gloria Gaither, Kenna West, Sue C. Smith, Daryl Williams and Lanny Wolf among others. The first single, “Tell The Mountain,” is currently at radio stations across the country.
