SoGoCity Opens Today!
(Asheboro, NC) - Caraway Media Group launched the new social network community for Gospel Music. The following is from a blog post from SoGoCity founder Charles Brady to the more than 130 members who joined in the first 24 hours.
Less than 24 hours ago this place wasn’t even here. In less than 24 hours we have over 130 members and we have shared over a hundred pictures with each other, created 5 discussion groups, uploaded numerous songs & video’s and we have been making friends (both old and new) at a rate that is making my head spin. LOL!!!
I want to express my appreciation to everyone for your participation. The best made plans fall short without help from so many directions. Looking at the profiles I see some of the top artists, radio station owners, fans, songwriters, publishing companies, producers and even some family. My dream is for a place that rivals anything available that is focused on uplifting messages by inspired individuals. People of faith. People who need to be around people of faith. And people who have not experienced faith and yet are drawn here.
My prayer is that SoGoCity will become a place where folks with common interests and goals can connect. 1 year from today there are 2 things that I know can change your life forever. The books you read, and the connections you make. When the first important connection is made ( with Him ) then we can really see the fruit from the connections with each other.
I am in awe of the activity here today and as we bring more and more of our family and friends together I hope that we will all benefit from this place of connections and friendships. This is fun and it’s not even the completion of day 1 yet!
Father’s Best to each of You and Thanks Again!!
Charles Brady
Come join in the fun and fellowship of fellow artists, fans and industry folks!

Rare Crabb Reunion Comes to Paramount Arts Center
January 1, 2009
ASHLAND, KY - One of Southern Gospel music’s award winning family groups will reunite on stage to kick off the New Year with an especially rare night of music: the Crabb Reunion will be performing at 7:30 p.m. at the Paramount Arts Center, on Sat., Jan. 31st.
“Our goal is to reach all ages,” Jason Crabb said recently about the upcoming event at the Paramount. He added that the family members—including Jason, Adam, Aaron, Kelly, Terah and others—now find an even greater appreciation and purpose in singing together since the retirement took place. The siblings continue in their own callings of music and ministry, and still enjoy getting together on special occasions like this one. According to Jason, it’s especially significant when they can join together on stage to perform in their home state of Kentucky. “We want to reach everyone, from the oldest to the youngest, because they all need the message of Jesus Christ.”
Appearing on stage at the Paramount Arts Center will be the Crabb Revival with Adam Crabb and Terah Crabb Penhollow, Jason Crabb, and Aaron and Amanda Crabb, along with an array of live musicians. Kelly “Crabb” Bowling will be the only members of the family not attending the family concert due to scheduling conflicts. The concert will be especially unique since all the members of the family will perform numerous Crabb Family chart-topping songs from yesteryear, and will also perform in other unusual musical amalgamations with new hits and medleys.
Fans are also invited to an intimate, pre-show dinner and meet-and-greet with the Crabb Family, at Daystar Studios, in Ashland, just five minutes from the Paramount Arts Center. The dinner will include a lovely buffet with drink included. Visitors can also tour the largest Christian television station in the tri-state area. Tickets for this special dinner with the Crabbs are limited. Order tickets, $20 each, by calling 606-615-5678.
For the Paramount Arts Center Show, 1300 Winchester Avenue, Ashland, KY, tickets are $20, $25 and $30. Tickets are available by contacting the Paramount at 606-324-3175.
