The Columbus Gospel series was conceived in 2005 by producer Robert Williams as a vehicle to showcase the profound talent originating from Central Ohio. The series showcases and presents to the world the very best of the gospel music of our community. Volume 1 was released in 2007 and received outstanding reviews. Columbus Gospel is one of only a few compilation releases from an independent label that actually pays a royalty to its participating artists.
The artists in the series reflect the many perspectives of the Christian experience as well as the true spirit of the city of Columbus. Columbus Gospel only scratches the surface of the Gospel music talent in our city. There are several local artists with quality releases and we encourage you to support them by purchasing their music and going to see their live performances.
The higher calling of the Columbus Gospel series can be summed up in its mission statement:To spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and feature the diverse interpretations of that Gospel expressed through the music of artists from the Central Ohio area, and to help bring people together from various denominations and cultures.
Volume 2 is now in production and with each new edition, we will continue to showcase the very best Columbus has to offer. Any recorded gospel singer, musician, choir or group can submit their recording for consideration as long as they reside in the Greater Columbus area (Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin, Licking, Madison, Pickaway or Union counties).
