It really has been a busy couple of weeks here at Tate Music Group. Last week, TMG artists and America's Got Talent stars, Voices of Glory, came out to record and perform a few shows in the Oklahoma City area. While they were here, we set up an interview with the Fox affiliate here. You can watch the interview here.
Also, this week we welcomed country music legend, Neal McCoy. Neal came out to record with us and then was off to a few shows lined up in Branson, MO. Neal's new music, along with his book, will be releasing soon. We are very excited about having Neal and Voices of Glory as a part of our Tate Music Group family.
With all this excitement...it will be nice to have a long weekend to rest and reflect on this Easter season. I'm sure April will bring plenty of excitement of it's own.

tate music group...thoughts from our Artist of the Year
We got this message from Chuck Tocco, 2010 TMG Artist of the Year, and I wanted to share with you his thoughts.
Being Brought Before Great Men
I was thinking today about the scripture out of Proverbs 18:16 – A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men. I know God has blessed me with the gift of music, and I want to share this gift with the world. In doing so, I am not pursuing it for own personal gain, but for the advancement of the kingdom. I believe that God has brought me before great men, and for me that has been Tate Music Group. I knew that when I signed with Tate that I was making the right decision. I had prayed over this decision, and only being left with a feeling of peace. When signing the contract I read the “Mission Statement” and knew that they were Christ focused. This was the kind of people I wanted to partner with.
Tate as a company operates their business with an attitude of excellence. My experience all started with the director of acquisitions Brianne Webb who explained, directed, and gave me comfort about signing to the record label. I have worked side-by-side with my producer Jameson Reynolds, and watch him pour his heart and soul into my project. I saw the excellence of Janae Glass create a superb representation for the cover of my new release, “I Know That You Can Hear Me.” There are so many others who are working extremely hard to make this project a success. I can’t thank everyone enough for their dedication, and commitment.
During my visit to Oklahoma for the “Artist of the Year” contest I was able to get to know the staff, and their families on a more intimate level. I walked away from that experience feeling so excited about this new chapter in my life. Everyone I met was excited about their job, and their role in the company. There was no “I” in the vocabulary of anyone who I came into contact with. They all operated and functioned as a body, and they get things done with the highest level of excellence.
Many great artists are signing to the label, and having great success. If you feel God is leading you in this direction, pray about it, ask for God’s leading. Know that if you sign with Tate you’re not being scammed, but it’s an opportunity to make the vision God has placed in your heart become a reality.
Tate Music Group is quickly becoming recognized as one of the best record labels to partner with. Remember that the investment you are sowing into your ministry is small in comparison to the investment they are putting into you. They also, give you the opportunity to get that money back. Who does that? All you got to do is work hard, and be committed. Know that you are being brought before great men.

tate music group...145 million and growing
I mentioned in an earlier post that Tate Music Group and Tate Publishing have started creating and running national television commercials on major cable networks like MTV, VH1, BET, and many others. It is an incredible opportunity for national exposure of our artists and their music.
I thought I would share with you some of the thoughts and information from the President of Tate Publishing and Enterprises, Ryan Tate: "Since launching the campaigns...[we] have already reached nearly 145,000,000 million viewers. That is right, 145 million viewers have watched our commercials and the buzz is incredible. This type of support and exposure is exactly what it takes [artists] to be successful and set themselves apart. I am so proud to be part of a company that is forward thinking and continues to put [artists] first."
There isn't another company or group that gives this kind of support and national exposure to their artists. Keep your eyes open and go get your soda during the shows...cause these commercials are worth watching.
