The Gospel Music Channel & The Stellar Awards
NASHVILLE, October 21 /Christian Newswire / — The Gospel Music Channel television network will become the exclusive first-run cable home for The Stellar Awards, the premier Gospel event that recognizes and honors Gospel artists, as part of a new multi-year licensing agreement with Central City Productions (CCP) and Don Jackson, CCP CEO and Stellar Awards executive producer.
Beginning in 2009, Gospel Music Channel will premiere The Stellar Awards on Sunday, March 1 after it’s first broadcast syndication window run. Under the new agreement, Gospel Music Channel also will debut a new, CCP-produced series "The Best of the Stellars." The GMC-exclusive 10-episode series will spotlight the most memorable moments, performances and interviews from the first 23 years of The Stellar Awards. Hosted by gospel great Vickie Winans, "The Best of the Stellars" will begin production this fall and premiere on GMC in April 2009.
"Gospel Music Channel is now the home for the most prestigious award shows in Gospel/Christian music: The Stellar Awards and The GMA Dove Awards," commented GMC vice chairman Brad Siegel. "We’re thrilled to have The Stellars and the ‘Best of’ series and we look forward to being a television partner with Don and CCP for many years to come."
"Gospel Music Channel has become the number one television destination for gospel music fans so it is fitting that The Stellars will now be seen on GMC," commented Jackson. "Gospel Music Channel’s amazing growth will help make The Stellar Awards more accessible to more viewers around the country. We look forward to the Stellars’ presence on GMC year round, starting with today’s announcement."
