| Singer/ Songwriter Terri G is the latest Christian Pop sensation to grace the airwaves. Terri, a native of Massachusetts, began her career in first grade as a choir girl. She devoted her childhood and teen years as a singer and pianist but took a break from her career for much of the 80’s and 90’s in order to raise a family. Her continued interest in songwriting culminated in the release of her first demo in 2003, a foreshadowing of Terri’s return to the stage. Since then, she has consistently entertained music lovers everywhere with her introspective genre of songs. She has built dedicated fan bases across the country thanks to her performances at Curbs Stage in Nashville, Library Park, the Kennedy Plaza, channel 15’s Curtain Call, Steve’s Backstage Pass, prisons and countless charities, radio programs and concerts. Her work blends the angelic voice of Enya, the toe-tapping hype of Shania Twain and the rich, spiritual sound of Amy Grant. Songs such as “The Rescue” are a testament to her musical and lyrical prowess. "The Rescue” was honored by Melodic Records and placed on a 2CD compilation album at CDbaby and mindawn with all proceeds going to charity to help bring relief to the people in Haiti. "In May 2008, Terri won a director’s choice award in the Nashville International Song and Lyric Contest from Paramount Group for her song entry “Walked Away.” As a writer and pianist, she identifies the theme, composes the lyrics and develops the melody for all her work. Terri is also an accomplished poet. Her poetry is distinct from her song-writing displaying a unique perspective and original creativity. In 2004, she received an Editor's Choice Award featured in the deluxe hardbound edition "Tracing the Infinite" from the International Library of Poetry for her poem titled "Where is my Spoon?” Song Placement Music Group located in California (Hollywood Blvd) is currently working with Terri and giving her the attention that she deserves through a process of joint submissions to record labels, publishers, music festivals (such as SXSW & CMJ), radio, magazines and music supervisors who oversee licensing deals for film, TV, advertising and video games. |
