Hello Gordon Mote Fans!

Hope you are all doing well! With the memorial Day weekend behind us, although not on the calendar, summer has begun! Memorial Day is a great and special day set aside to remember and honor all those who sacrificed their lives that we might enjoy the freedoms we all hold so dear. Let us never forget that "freedom isn't free"!

The weekend was also very busy around the Mote household with Parker becoming a proud High School Graduate of the CPA Class of 2018. It won't be long until he is off to Samford for the next chapter in his young life. Parker is a fine young man and Mom and Dad are justifiably proud! May God continue to guide his life!


Gordon, Parker and Kimberly Mote

On Wednesday, June 6 we will be flying to Rome Italy and boarding a ship with our great friends of Inspiration Cruises and Tours for a ten night, “Pathway to Victory, Journey's of Paul" cruise of Italy, Malta and Greece. We are so excited to be asked by Inspiration and Dr. Robert Jeffress of Dallas First Baptist to assist leading in worship and performing concerts during this cruise. Dr. Jeffress is an incredible Bible teacher. We so look forward to hearing him teach from some of the same places that Paul taught and preached.

If you have never cruised, you should and you need to make sure it is with Inspiration Tours and Cruises. They are without question, the very best!

The street/retail date for the new project “Love, Love, Love", is August 3. We should have product the end of June and will make an announcement via this newsletter and social media how you can get your copy early. Below is a press release that went to over 3,100 media outlets today. Needless to say, we are excited. We believe you will love this music!



For Immediate Release

ACM Winner Gordon Mote Wraps Production of Love, Love, Love
Latest New Haven Record Album to Hit Stores in August 3, 2018

Academy of Country Music Award-winning artist Gordon Mote (on the piano) with the world renowned Voices of Lee who were featured guests on Mote's upcoming New Haven Records release Love Love Love.

NASHVILLE, Tenn - (May 30, 2018) - New Haven Records president Ken Harding recently announced the upcoming release of Love, Love, Love--the 11th album from celebrated Academy of Country Music Award-winning artist Gordon Mote and the third on the New Haven Records label.

Harding says, "Love, Love, Love continues to prove why Gordon is one of Nashville's premier singers, songwriters, and instrumentalists. More than an extraordinary performer, Gordon has the amazing ability to communicate God's mercy and love with those both inside and outside the doors of the church."

As with his previous releases, the songs on Love, Love, Love span the stylistic gamut from traditional Southern Gospel to Country to accessible pop. Nonetheless, the album is unified by Gordon's warm voice, stellar lyrics, and signature piano prowess.

Co-produced by the celebrated talents of Wayne Haun and Phil Johnson, the songs on this album have a common thread. Mote reflects, "When we started listening to songs, there was no particular theme in mind. I have never recorded a ‘theme' project and had no intention of doing so at this time. However, as the list of great songs began to develop, it became obvious there were several songs focused on a particular subject: love. The title cut, Love, Love, Love reminds us that if God's children will improve showing His love, our world will be a better place."

The new album offers his fans the kinds of songs they know and love such as "Love is the Golden Rule" (featuring Danny Murray and the Voices of Lee), "Set Your House in Order" (a revival-styled, Southern Gospel hand-clapper featuring the legendary Oak Ridge Boys), and "Remember for Me" (a poignant ballad from the perspective of a couple facing the prospect of old age and Alzheimer's).

But Love, Love, Love also offers listeners some surprise covers: Michael W. Smith's techno-pop "Love Crusade," a lushly orchestrated arrangement of Steven Curtis Chapman's "His Strength is Perfect," and the pop-gospel standard "People Get Ready" (featuring Cana's Voice). It seems that when you're a studio musician who has played with the likes of Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Alan Jackson, and Darius Rucker, there's no musical mountain you can't climb.

Ken Harding concludes, "As with his previous recordings, listening to Love, Love, Love makes you forget that Gordon has been blind since birth. Rather, you're reminded of how God's great love can sustain all of us through any season of life. We can't wait for the whole world to hear this new project!"
