GOSPEL MUSIC HAPPENINGS

Tony Gore announced he will be performing select dates with a live band in 2020. Members of the Sneed Family will be participating.

      Thanks Brandon!

      Of course, the first week I don’t check their Facebook page while preparing NewsNuggets is the same week they add a cover image plus the release date. :)
