Music Scene
We are also getting "WITHOUT JESUS" ready for release on Double E Promotion's Comp Release coming out in January. I wrote the song with Gerald Smith about a year ago.
We have most of the songs for Amy Assiter's debut release. Bob Stroud and I wrote "MY NAME IS AMY" which is kind of a biographical song about what Amy is like and who she is. Rickey Chad Roland, Amy and I wrote COWBOYS AND INDIANS which I really like. It has a really cool feel to it. I really think you will enjoy the mix of songs we have. It's a mix of serious and fun.
Until next time....I'm Still Me

Catching Up and Great New Stuff on the Way!
I've been writing with a number of fabulous writers and building my catalog of work since signing on as a staff writer at Melody Roundup Music. Gerald Smith, Rickey Chad Roland, Johnny Holland, Coley McCabe, Toni Dae, Bobby Cole Myer, Brittney Brake, Bob Stroud are all very creative and take the craft of writing very seriously. I should have some more songs for Reverb Nation soon.
Jerry Audley has just released his c.d. "Audley Enough". Its gotten great reviews by the Texas Music News review. "Lucky Lucky Me" is the first song on the c.d. I wrote it with Jesse James and Lonnie Williams. From what I understand it is slated to be released as a single. Congratulations, Jerry! We can't wait until Lucky Lucky Me hits the charts. A little side note. Jerry and I ran around the streets of Music Row in another life. Many years ago. Its been great to reconnect with him.
Also working on finding songs and for a new artist in the Texas Music scene I'm producing by the name of Amy Assiter. You will be hearing more about her soon. We have found about half the songs for her new c.d. Our target release for her 1st single is January of 2011. If you have ever watched Barrett Jackson Collector Car event on the SPEED Channel chances are you have seen Amy. She is on the auction staff for Barrett Jackson and she is probably the most recognized face associated with the auction. She is a great gal with an awesome personality and this first project is really exciting. A true lady. She loves this country and the people in it. And an awesome singer. See you soon.

Jeff Stansberry's Self-Penned Debut Release "Carry Me" Going for Radio Adds on January 5Adds
My song "Carry Me" was placed on a compilation c.d promoted by Double E Promotions. The compilation was released to Southern Gospel/Country Christian radio stations on January 5. I'm excited about this release. It will be my debut on radio. It will interesting to see how things go. If you have such a station close to you I would appreciate a call and request to the station.
"Carry Me" is a song I wrote about 12 years ago after looking at a print of the Footprints in the Sand. When I saw the one set of footprints the idea for the song came to me.
It was one of the songs that helped get my songwriting deal with Melody Roundup Music. Ironically enough when I signed my deal with MRM, my wife gave me a book named "Footprints" to congratulate me. It was written with scripture and commentary by Margaret Fishback Powers, the author of the famous poem written for her husband in 1964. The very writing where the beach graphic had inspired my song had been given to me by my wife, Scottie. Here is where the irony comes in. Scottie never knew where the idea for the song came from. As I looked at the cover of the book through tears of joy and wonder I realized once again how God had blessed me.
I had a nice conversation with Perry Edge, the owner of Double E Promotions, a couple of days ago. It seems that we have something in common. He is an auctioneer too. It's amazing to me the number of people that I meet in the auction business who also are singers or musicians of some sort.
If you're reading these rambling thoughts I want to thank you for taking an interest in what I'm doing. I'm gonna try not to worry about the trip but just enjoy the ride. "Use today to make a difference in someone's life".....Jeff "Ding" Stansberry
