-----------February 20, 2007Dove Awards 2007Nominations for the 2007 Dove Awards were announced today. Southern Gospel made a respectable showing again this year, with nominations in several categories other than SG-specific categories. Also, the nominations generally make sense, with a couple of glaring exceptions. (I will refrain from pointing the exceptions out, but feel free to read over the list and see if any strike you as out of place.) I noticed the Torch video project got a nomination, which it fully deserved. A thought just hit me. Since Torch includes numerous artists, they can all add the phrase "Dove Nominated Artist" (acronym: DNA?) to their curriculum vita. Sure...each individual was just one lone voice in a huge choir, but hey, you've got to take advantage of these things. This sort of thing wasn't above Word Music, who marketed Pete Orta's solo CD as being by a "Gospel Music Hall Of Fame Member" a few years ago. Actually, he was just a member of Petra briefly, but you'd think he was right up there with Andrae Crouch to read the marketing. It was true...technically...but also very misleading. Seriously, I hope no SG PR people will use the Torch nomination to pump up an individual artist's credentials. (On the other hand, if you do, at least send me a check for giving you the idea. Hey, inspiration ought to be worth something!) Anyway... Listed below are the categories where Southern Gospel artists were nominated.
