Robert Pierre Gives Sneak Peek of Debut Album Online

September 28, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
Nashville, TN - thinkaboutit records recording artist Robert Pierre is set to unveil a sneak peek at his upcoming album, Inside Out, through the launch of his official website, www.RobertPierre.com, on September 26, 2006. Designed and powered by echomusic, the site will include a flash audio jukebox player, which will give visitors the opportunity to preview music from Inside Out before the album hits the streets on November 7, 2006. In addition to the jukebox player, a flash video player will display Pierre's debut music video, "On Faith Alone."

The relationship between the young artist and echomusic, noted for their strength in creating a trusted and vital relationship between artists and their fan bases, is a natural fit. Thirteen-year-old Robert Pierre is excited about the chance to connect with his fans through the site via an online journal and a sophisticated email system, which will allow fans to get to know the singer more in depth. Visitors will have the opportunity to download buddy icons, banners, avatars and screensavers and show their support by joining Pierre's street team. A custom store housed on the site will give visitors the opportunity to purchase Inside Out and other exclusive merchandise. Fans can also look forward to an interactive game that will be added to the site at a later date following the initial launch.

Pierre has already found the use of the Internet to be a valuable tool in taking his music to a broader audience. In the fall of 2005, what started out as a simple holiday gift recording for friends and family quickly caught the attention of his local Christian radio station and beyond. Within days, and without a promotional team, the CD gained the favor of hundreds of local and regional stations nationwide. There were so many requests for Robert's music that his family decided to post it online for 10 days of free downloading, and thousands of downloads were recorded. This overwhelming interest in his music encouraged Robert's passionate desire to use his God-given gift to reach out to his peers with the message of the Gospel. Now, with the assistance of a team of seasoned industry veterans, as well as his loving family behind him, Robert is set to impact youth around the country with Inside Out.

Filling the recent void in the tween market, Inside Out touches on themes of God's love, the difference one person can make and walking by faith, as well as tackling the timely discussion of evolution vs. the case for a Creator. The CD, produced by Robert White Johnson (Celine Dion, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Van Zant), The Stitts Brothers (Chris Tomlin, Al Green) and Al Denson, reflects a young man with a strong desire to develop a music ministry to youth and music lovers alike. Pierre recently debuted music from Inside Out at Rock the Universe, an event held annually at the Universal Studios Florida(r) theme park, where he joined such renowned artists as Al Denson, Newsboys, Third Day, Audio Adrenaline, Relient K, GRITS, Skillet and Superchic[k].

Robert Pierre's Inside Out will be distributed in the CBA market by Provident-Integrity Distribution and by Sony BMG in the general market.
