Chris August, “Starry Night”

Chris August, “Starry Night”

Contemporary Christian singer/songwriter Chris August’s new single, Starry Night, may very well be one of the bigger hits of the 2010 Christian charts.

For another thing, August is signed with Word Records, whose solid reputation for...

Ganns’ Top 10 – June 5 2010

Well, this is a surprise! I knew Super Junior’s Bonamana wouldn’t have enough legs to stand on for one more week at the top – hey, three weeks is no small pickins on my chart – so the question remained as to who would replace the track.

Jonny Diaz, “Waiting Room”

Jonny Diaz, “Waiting Room”

Contemporary Christian singer/songwriter Jonny Diaz scored his first Top 10 hit late last year with More Beautiful You, a paean to true beauty which comes from the inside; the song peaked at #2. Many compare him to Dave Barnes, Bebo Norman, and Brandon Heath; you may find his sound similar to Jason Mraz or John Mayer. After two independent CDs, Diaz’s first major label debut album – More Beautiful You, under INO Records –...
