Wednesdays with Britt Nicole: 'Let's hang out with God for a little bit' (Part 6 of 6)

NASHVILLE (WordNews.org) Nov. 30, 2011 – “There’s some cool opportunities that are coming up,” Christian music artist Britt Nicole blurts out.
Then, she adds cautiously, “Something I don’t know if I can share yet.”
A hint?
“There’s other people they’re putting together.”
Britt is currently touring with Brandon Heath’s “Leaving Eden” tour. She talks about what she would like to do one day.
“There’s a lot. So many things I would love to do,” she says. “Ultimately, I want to reach people.”
She talk about the frustration she gets sometimes in the midst of completing a performance.
“A lot of times on tour we have this hour-long or two hour-long show and people are almost at the breaking point where God is about to do something in their life,” Britt says, “and you’re like, ‘Ok, good night, see you next year.’ It’s like, ‘Wait!’ God was moving and they were about to have a break through in their life.’ I see that a lot. For me that kind of breaks my heart.”
She knows what she would like to do at those moments.

Thursdays with Brandon Heath: On other artists (Part 5 of 5)

NASHVILLE (WordNews.org) Nov. 24, 2011 – Christian music artists Brandon Heath and Britt Nicole have been touring together since October, opening for Brandon’s “Leaving Eden” tour.
Brandon said having Britt on tour, an old-time friend, brings a different dimension to his concerts. Mainly, a slightly different fan base.
“As a young female artist, she brings little girls and that wouldn’t be my audience,” Brandon says. “I feel like we both bring a very valuable audience to each other. It’s cool to see her in her ministry and do what she does. I think we complement each other well.”

Wednesdays with Britt Nicole: 'A great journey so far' (Part 5 in a series)

Britt Nicole

 NASHVILLE (WordNews.org) Nov. 23, 2011 – When we last left Britt Nicole, she was in a conversation with God.
She wanted to go to college in Nashville, but He wanted her to return to her small town in North Carolina.
“There’s nothing for me to do here,” she remembers complaining. “But as soon as I surrendered to God and said, ‘I’m not going to take my path, I’m going to take Yours,’ doors began to open for me as far as my music"

Thursdays with Brandon Heath: Staying grounded, 'Doing what I was born to do'

 NASHVILLE (WordNews.org) Nov. 17, 2011 – If you listen to Christian radio much, you don’t have to wait long for a Brandon Heath tune to come on.
Hits like “Give Me Your Eyes” and his current hit, “You Put the Light In Me,” get lots of airtime.
How’s a guy stay grounded?
“I have a men’s group of about four guys that I meet with,” he said.
Because Brandon tours mostly on weekends, “I get to be home with the fam over the week and then I’ve got a mentor that asks me a lot of tough questions sometimes. [And] I have a counselor,” he said. “So, I think that it’s pretty extraordinary, if I think about it. I have some pretty awesome people in my life. But I’ve made it a priority to have them. It’s important that they’re around.”
