Strategic Music Partnerships Launches Excellence in Christian Music Awards

Washington, DC: The Excellence in Christian Music Awards (ECMA) has been created to equip Christian/Gospel music artists with the tools necessary to be successful in the music industry.

Each year, independent Christian/Gospel artists participate in numerous award shows and programs with the hopes of winning coveted prizes and achieving industry recognition. Though this process represents the industry standard for artist recognition, it does not encourage the growth and expansion of the artists, their careers, or the forward progression of the Christian/Gospel music industry.

Independent artists, or Christian Music Industry Participants (CMIP), avidly support numerous seminars, conventions, conferences and award recognition programs with the hopes of obtaining information that will guide them to success within the industry.

The Excellence in Christian Music Awards (ECMA) will offer CMIPs the opportunity to participate in an awards process based on an objective and unbiased point system designed to identify ECMA recipients for final recognition in the national annual awards program.

The ECMA project represents a new era in the training, education, and development of Christian/Gospel music artists. ECMA provides the opportunity to maximize an artist’s capabilities while recognizing their individual initiative. Engaging in this specialized ECMA program positions artists for improved successes and postures ECMA as a novelty in the Christian/Gospel music industry. Recipients will be selected from all fifty states representing the best in gospel and Christian music.

The Excellence in Christian Music Awards (ECMA) was founded by Henry Harris, President and CEO of Strategic Music Partnerships. Mr. Harris brings over 20 years of experience in assisting the independent Christian/Gospel artist in further advancing their ministries. Mr. Harris has served faithfully as President of the Stellar Award Advisory Board (SAGMA) for the past 3 years. He has been an active member for a total of 8 years. Mr. Harris brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this platform.
