Rick Webb Family Presents The Glory & Majesty of Christmas

Rick Webb Family presents The Glory & Majesty of Christmas

For the past seven years, The Rick Webb Family has had the honor of presenting the Glory and Majesty of Christmas at the Blue Gate Theater in Shipshewana, Indiana. With many “sold out” performances of this simple, yet profound production, it easily became an event that was anticipated each year. The Webbs are thrilled to announce that they will be presenting the Glory and Majesty of Christmas in their hometown of High Point, North Carolina at the High Point Theatre on December 2 & 3, 2015.

The Glory and Majesty of Christmas is a narration of the Luke 2 story of Jesus’s birth, portrayed by a cast of thirty actors and classical dancers, with music by the internationally acclaimed Rick Webb Family intermingled throughout the production. Written by Derric Johnson, 25 year creative director for Walt Disney World, this spectacular presentation of the Christmas Story has been performed over 50 times, in theaters all over the United States and now for the first time, at the High Point Theatre!

The living nativity includes the crèche along with the village townspeople who bring their best to the Christ child. And yes “even the smallest gift is great when given in love.”

For this exclusive High Point Theater production, joining the talents of the Rick Webb Family will be an exquisite performance by the High Point Ballet and the Fine Arts Department of Wesleyan Christian Academy.
Special guest appearance by High Point legend, Pedro Silva.

Allow the simplicity and grandeur of the greatest story ever told to prepare your heart through the Glory and Majesty of Christmas!

SGNScoops Wacky Wednesday Top Ten: Vacation Time!

Welcome to another edition of Wacky Wednesday. SGN Scoops has polled about 18 or so artists about various things and received their answers. We have used this (not so great) scientific process to tabulate the Wacky Wednesday Top Ten (more or less)!

SGN Scoops Wacky Wednesday Top Ten

Today our subject is: Where do your favorite artists like to spend their vacations?

Our panel of expert artists gave us the following answers. These are not in any particular order.

It’s obvious that several on our artist panel are preparing to break out their Speedos! These include:

Joseph Habedank: “Rosemary Beach.” (soloist)

Karen Peck: “Destin, Florida.” (Karen Peck and New River)

Karen Peck & New River

Greg Bentley: “Any sunny beach!” (Crossroads Studios)

Billy Blackwood: “Gulf Coast.” (Blackwood Brothers Quartet)

Clayton Inman: “Anywhere with a beach.” (Triumphant)

Gary Casto: “Hawaii!” (Tribute)

**Booth Brother 1: “Warm, sunny

Florida!” (Booth Brothers)

Chris Jenkins: “Top Regular Destination: Beach; Favorite Of all Time: Jamaica!” (Kingsmen) PS. Don’t miss the Kingsmen feature in the June 2015 edition of SGN Scoops!

2015 SGNScoops Magazine

And then there is the lure of the lake…

Michaela Brown: “Lake Okoboji, Iowa.” (The Browns)

David Sutton: “The lake.” (Triumphant)

This might be the lake…or a nearby river…or stream…

Shannon Smith: “Any place that I can fish, read, and eat.” (Three Bridges)

We also have some fans of the beauty of North Carolina…

**Booth Brother 2: “Cabin in the North Carolina woods.”

Hannah Webb: “North Carolina mountains.” (The Rick Webb Family)

Other artists are going to be flying to their favorite vacation destinations:

Phil Collingsworth Sr.: “London ?” (Collingsworth Family)

Scott Inman: “  Australia!” (Triumphant)

Lauren Talley Alvey: “Honestly, after traveling all the time, when I have some time off, I love to just stay home. If we’re going somewhere, we like Las Vegas a lot for the shopping and shows. (We take Jesus to Sin City.)” (The Talleys)

Donna King: “Southern California because I have two daughters, a son-in-law and two grandsons there!” (Zane and Donna King)

And we are really surprised that only one person said…

Booth Brothers

**Booth Brother 3: “Home.” (Booth Brothers)

Thanks for joining us for Wacky Wednesday. Do you have a suggestion for a question we can ask our artist panel? Write to us at sgnscoops@gmail.com

Stay tuned for more of these indepth polls right here on SGN Scoops!

**Note: The Booth Brothers each answered each question but wouldn’t say whose answer it was…therefore we are leaving it up to you, dear reader, to guess whether the pithy answer comes from Michael Booth, Ronnie Booth or Paul Lancaster!

Song Garden Music Group Partners With The Rick Webb Family

Nashville, TN (September 30,2013) Song Garden Music Group has partnered with Rick Webb, of The Rick Webb Family, in its quest to better serve our Southern Gospel artists. Song Garden looks forward to working with Rick in his new capacity, along with making good use of the many talents the Webb family can contribute to the recording company.

The Song Garden office will be moved from Nashville to North Carolina – closer to the original Keffer partners, and to the Webbs, thereby conducive to more active involvement of the partners. The Keffers have long wished to be more involved with their artists and the day to day business of the company. The move will enable Song Garden to use some outstanding regional studios, as well as continuing to offer Nashville recording sessions with associates there.

David Staton has headed up operations for Song Garden in Nashville for the last eight years, and is credited with much of the growth and numerous innovative ideas during that time. Song Garden’s niche has long been assisting up and coming groups to grow and improve, and provide high quality, yet affordable recording options via their Grapevine label. The intermediate level artists are offered the Garden Creek label, while the most successful artists are on the main Song Garden label. All will be served out of the new office in North Carolina after October 14^th of this year.

The Rick Webb Family has built a strong legacy of Christian service and integrity in gospel music and will be a great asset to the record label in their partnership capacity to grow Song Garden Music Group. Each member of the Rick Webb Family will be heavily involved in the daily responsibilities of the label, in addition to maintaining their concert tour schedule throughout the United States and Canada.
