Artist: Ginny Owens
After four studio releases, an acoustic EP and a live album, Rocketown
Records is releasing this summer the definitive collection of Ginny Owens'
greatest hits. Titled after her career-defining song, If You Want Me
To: The Best of Ginny Owens will release Aug. 8. A consummate songwriter
and performer, Owens résumé consists of three Dove Award
wins, including New Artist of the Year, as well as a host of mainstream
television appearances. Most recently, Owens appeared on CNN to educate
viewers about the non-profit organization she launched in 2005, the Fingerprint
Initiative, and its ongoing work with Habitat for Humanity and Hurricane
Katrina recovery efforts.
Rocketown Records President Don Donahue said, "After my first listen
to this collection of songs, each one took me to a different memory, a
different moment. Ginny writes bookmarks in time. She's the kind of artist
who makes this industry great—humble, talented, Godly and wise, a
hard worker and a friend."
In addition to past radio hits and songs that reveal Owens' insightful
and profound writing, the anticipated best of collection also features
two new tracks. The first, "Wonderful Wonder," is a new version
of a song from Owens' last studio release Long Way Home, that was
produced this time around by Dove Award-winning Producer of the Year Ed
Cash. The other new track, "Open Arms," was written and produced
by Owens' label mate, Shawn Lewis (from RKT band Hyper Static Union),
and will be serviced to radio stations.
