CrossWay Members Reach Out to Fans Through Online Journal
RIPLEY, Miss.—April 29th, 2005—Spring Hill Recording Artists CrossWay have recently updated their group website, making available a BLOG (weB LOG) written by members of the group on a regular basis.
Group members Paul, Marty, Chris and Matt log on regularly to this special feature, accessed easily by visitors through the home page, to write casual (and often humorous), behind-the-scenes glimpses at their lives on the road and at home. Also accessible are fans and friends’ responses to the “blogs.”
“We are having a terrific time with this,” stated baritone Paul Smith. “It’s another way for us to get to know our friends and fans and for them to become better acquainted with us. It is a win/win way to communicate, and we have already seen a large jump in the number of hits to our site. We look forward to updating this regularly.”
Recent news also found on the CrossWay site is a new contest to win an iPod Shuffle complete with southern Gospel music downloads and the coinciding recordings. The winner will receive many of their favorite CrossWay hits and other popular southern Gospel artists contained on this portable, compact MP3 player. Contestants can enter through the CrossWay website — http://www.crosswayqt.com
CrossWay was nominated for two 2005 DOVE Awards for their current recording This I Know (Spring Hill Music) and hit single “It Looks Like Love to Me.” The group’s new single, “Long Arm of Love,” was the number one pick hit and number one new release according to djs nationwide upon its release.
The group is currently on the road with the Crabb Jam tour, taking place throughout the year in various cities across the country. CrossWay and The McRaes are joining The Crabb Family for these select dates that feature each of the artists individually and collaboratively in unique vocal combinations backed by The Crabb Family Band. With everyone on stage under the age of 30, the Crabb Jam dates offer fans something unique and special.
CrossWay’s products are distributed by Word Distribution/WEA. The group is booked by The Harper Agency and managed by Showcase Management. For further information, visit http://www.crosswayqt.com
