Word Has It: The Clark Sisters & Family Record Christmas Project

by EJ on Jul.15, 2009 at 12:08 pm, under Music

Word has it that the Clark Sisters recorded their already highly-anticipated holiday album, A Clark Family Christmas, yesterday in Detroit.  Aside from the Sisters, guest appearances came from Kierra Sheard, J Moss, Bill Moss Jr., and J Drew Sheard II… wowwwww!

I’m uber-excited for this project.  Industry vet Neily Dickerson tweeted a coupla details from the live recording for her followers.  Apparently, producer extraordinaire Asaph Ward was on hand to lend his expertise.  Some of the songs included “O Come Emmanuel,” “Silent Night,” “Beautiful Christmas” feat. Kierra Sheard (and produced by J Drew II), “This Christmas” feat. J Moss and Kierra Sheard, and “Little Drummer Boy.”

A Clark Family Christmas will be the first project released on the newly formed Karew Records, and is expected to drop on OCTOBER 13.  Shout-out to Neily for keepin’ folks informed (and for the great family photo below).  Other industry execs in attendance included Karew Records General Mgr. Darrell Thompson, Assistant General Mgr. Cynthia Ellis, EMI Gospel’s Marketing Team (Larry Blackwell & Karen Jackson), and Walter Kearney & Paul “PDA” Allen of PAJAM.

Am I buggin’ or is anyone else extremely eager to hear this?! *marking my calendar and savin’ my pennies NOW*

(l-r) J Drew Sheard II, Kierra Sheard, J Moss, Twinkie Clark, Karen Clark-Sheard, Bill Moss Jr, Dorinda Clark-Cole, Jacky Clark-Chisholm

    That’s AWWWWWWSOME! I can’t wait. Oh, it will be a very merry Christmas. I love all the collaborations: J. Moss & Dorinda (Return) Karen & J. Moss have very nice songs together also. Kierra & J. Moss (That Thing). I even have the one with 21:03, Kierra, and J. Moss. Their skills are divine. Anyone who denies that is either hating or just doesn’t understand music. The collection will grow again this year. Thanks for the news………Enlarge my territory….Enlarge my territory. Bless me. Bless me indeed. Yeah, had to go there.

    Hello, My name is Jerwinn Land (from Dallas, TX) and I am an upcoming artist who wants to be produced by the GREAT Karen Clark Sheard due to her being my idol, but I was wondering how might one get in touch with Karew Records?

    I think that Asaph Ward is the most awesome producer in Gospel Music today. The Sistah’s (and family) are so annointed but he has a way of putting the annointing into a wonderful prospective. Give the producer some!!!!!
    Stay Blessed!!!!
