Most of what Josh and I have learned about the ministry of Gospel music has come from the Charles Novell Christian Music Conference. This is a special Christian music conference that is held every year the week following July 4th. The School was started to train both beginning and experienced gospel artists to perfect the gifts that God has given them. We trained under these men and women......and our abilities grew by great leaps! If you have seen us in concert and wondered where we got our good training, this is it! If you have gone to other concerts or watched Christian music videos and wished that you could play or sing like them, this is the place to go.
Here you can learn from the best as you study:
Voice, Piano, Bass & Guitar, Drums, Songwriting, Sound Systems, Nashville Numbers, Promotions, Emcee Techniques, Performance, Private Lessons & Group Lessons
