"The Springs'

                           On a mission to bring more teenagers to Country Music

It all started in the winter of 2006-2007, when the search for the most musically talented teenagers in the South, ages 13 to 18, began.  Teenage musicians from three Southern states; Alabama, Florida and Georgia, made their way to open auditions in hopes of being discovered, and being chosen for “The Springs” band.  Not known by the judges, three of the hand picked band members, from Enterprise High School (Alabama) had won the National FFA string band competition two years in a row.  The male singer of that group, Stewart, had won a Cincinnati “Star Search” competition when he was just 15.  Tragedy struck on March 1, 2007, when a major tornado destroyed their high school killing eight of their friends.  Two of the band members were in the building when the storm hit (Stewart and Brent), what a story!

“The Springs” were nominated this year for three ICM Awards; including Group of the Year, New Artist of the Year and Youth Artist of the Year.  On October 16^th they won “2008 ICM Youth Artist of the Year” in Nashville, TN, and since then, have been nominated for “New Music Weekly’s” Country New Group of the Year, and the Agape Fest, New Young Horizon Group of the Year, and the Outstanding Group Achievement award for 2008.

With their high energy concerts, “The Springs” band is busy inspiring young people all over America to come back to Country Music.  This is their mission!  “The Springs” band has been hard at work this past year playing music festivals, and concerts.  They have shared the stage at venues with; Steve Holy, Earl Thomas Conley, Craig Morgan, Joe Diffie, Mel McDaniel, T.Graham Brown, Shane Owens, T.G. Shepherd, Jett Williams, Collin Raye, Tracy Lawrence, Ricky Skaggs, The Isaacs, Point Of Grace, Billy Dean, Aaron Tippin, Kid Rock and Sara Evans, just to name a few.

“The Springs” debut CD, Recorded in Nashville, on the CFC Music label, contains 12 tracks, and is entitled “Teens on a Mission”.  With six national radio promoters working with the label, and a video promoter, “The Springs” are sure to be a household name.  Their debut single off the CD, “Mommy’s Little Man”, became their first number ONE hit in the U.S., on Power Source’s top 100 Chart, and on both the U.S. and international GTE Music Magazine’s top 100 charts.  Written by 17 year old Stewart, the single went to #7 on CMA Europe’s main chart, out of 3,633 songs reported; released last March, the song is still on CMA Europe’s top 100 Chart.  While getting some Music Row play, “Mommy’s Little Man” charted #18 on New Music Weekly Indie Chart, #26 on NMW’s top Country chart. 

Their current single, “Are You An Angel”, has already went to number ONE on GTE’s “Christian Country” chart, that’s two #1’s in just Six months, and is getting rave reviews all over the U.S..  Being played on some Billboard and R & R stations the song also spent NINE weeks on the main Music Row top 100 Country Chart, as well as, going to #6 on New Music Weekly’s main Country chart.  This amazing country song is really having a world-wide impact during these tough economic times.  Sung by Stewart, “The Springs” teenage vocalist, the song tells the story about helping a family in need during the hard times.  “Are You An Angel” is currently being played on Country, Christian, and mainstream Contemporary Adult stations throughout America.  It has already climbed to #1 on several charts in Europe.

These teenagers are on a mission to bring more teens to Country Music.  Come join them on this mission.  In Country Music; “if we always do, what we’ve always done, we’ll always get, what we’ve always got”!  Listeners deserve more then just the “drinking” and “cheating” songs!!  “The Springs” offer a “family friendly” different kind of Country music.
