Sponsor Packet The Carousel Ball October 19, 2019 Sponsorship, Advertising, Auction, and Seating Information Enclosed Featured Performer The Carousel Ball will feature an intimate performance with country star, Reba McEntire. Multi-media entertainment mogul Reba McEntire has become a household name through a successful career that spans across music, television, film, theater, and retail. The Country Music Hall of Fame and Hollywood Bowl member has won 16 ACM Awards, 15 American Music Awards, 9 People’s Choice Awards, 6 CMA Awards, 3 GRAMMY® Awards, and a GMA Dove Award. The Grand Ole Opry member has also received the Andrea Bocelli Foundation Humanitarian Award, Leadership Music Dale Franklin Award, the Music Biz Chairman’s Award, the National Artistic Achievement Award from the U.S. Congress, and membership into the Horatio Alger Association, in addition to other philanthropic and leadership honors. In 2018, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame presented Reba with the inaugural Career Maker Award for her significant influence on the songwriting careers of Nashville songwriters. She also joined an elite group of creators as one of the 2018 Kennedy Center Honors recipients for her lifetime artistic achievements alongside Cher, Philip Glass, Wayne Shorter, and the creators of Hamilton – writer and actor Lin-Manuel Miranda, director Thomas Kail, choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler, and music director, Alex Lacamoire. The 2019 Academy of Country Music Awards™ marks her sixteenth time hosting the show. In 2017, she marked her thirteenth summit as “Sing It Now: Songs of Faith & Hope” topped both the Billboard Country and Christian/Gospel charts, bolstering Reba’s successful record of 35 No. 1 singles and over 56 million albums sold worldwide. The double-disc collection earned Reba her first GMA Dove Award for Bluegrass/Country/Roots Album of the Year and third GRAMMY® Award for Best Roots Gospel Album. In April 2019, she released a new album, “Stronger than the Truth,” on Big Machine Records. Reba co-produced the 12-track project with Buddy Cannon in Nashville. The Oklahoma native is an acclaimed actress with 11 movie credits to her name, a lead role on Broadway in Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun, and starred in the six-season television sitcom Reba. In 2005, she partnered with Dillard’s to launch her own lifestyle brand, and most recently launched the REBA by Justin™ western footwear collection at select retailers nationwide. She was named the first female and musician to portray KFC’s iconic founder Colonel Harland Sanders in the brand’s celebrity colonel campaign. Throughout 2019, she will bring that same bubbly energy and penchant for excellence to Las Vegas as part of the longest- running Country residency in The Colosseum’s history alongside her superstar pals for REBA, BROOKS & DUNN: Together In Vegas at Caesars. Reba McEntire Founders Award Richard Abrams, M.D. will be presented with the Founders Award at The Carousel Ball in honor of the instrumental role he has played in advancing diabetes care over the past four decades. Richard Abrams, M.D. Dr. Abrams has practiced internal medicine for over 40 years at Rose Medical Center, where he founded Colorado Preventive Medicine in 2006. His professional focus is based on the assumption that prevention or early detection of treatable disease is the key to a long, healthy life. One of Rick’s proudest accomplishments was his role in demonstrating that women with type 1 diabetes could become pregnant and safely deliver healthy babies. Forty years ago most physicians firmly believed that having a family was simply out of the question for women with diabetes. Dr. Abrams and colleagues showed that with contemporary diabetes care, pregnancy was safe for both mother and child. Rick edited the first editions of the American Diabetes Association books-- Diabetes During Pregnancy and Gestational Diabetes. He has also written and edited 5 medical books and numerous articles. His book, Will It Hurt the Baby, was featured on NBC’s Today Show, ABC’s Good Morning America, and CBS’s This Morning. A highlight of Rick’s professional life is serving on the Children’s Diabetes Foundation (CDF) Board of Directors and Scientific Advisory Board for over 30 years. The Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes (BDC) is one of the nation’s premier clinical care facilities and research centers. His participation in the success of the CDF and BDC continues to be an honor. Rick’s life is enriched by the love and support of his wife Carol, his son Brian, his daughter Katie, daughter-in-law Nora, son-in-law Tzur, and his 3 grandsons Xander, Knox, and Liam. High Hopes Tribute Award Lisa & Tom Corley will be presented with the High Hopes Tribute Award at The Carousel Ball in honor of their 20 years of service and support of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation and for their unending support of the Colorado community.

  • Keith Hill on Keith Hill
    June 1, 2015, Issue 450 Addressing SaladGate Six pages of in-depth reporting on Women In Country and a post-CRS panel write-up in which Keith Hill urged slashing female- voiced songs made nary a ripple outside the business a few months back. But the consultant’s lettuce-and-tomatoes analogy last week in this space touched off a social and, eventually, major media tidal wave. Go figure. We’ll get to Hill in the next story (right), after female PDs and MDs weigh in with their thoughts on a well-known though still confounding reality. In full disclosure, some of the women we contacted declined to contribute for lack of time or lack of what they felt would be helpful feedback. Some passed because they weren’t comfortable publicly commenting in a “no-win argument.” And some came to us asking to be part of the conversation.

  • Jamey Johnson
    ACM Week With... Jameyas Vegas. April, 2009. Jamey Johnson ascends to the ACM stage to Johnson accept Song of the Year for “In Color.” He is planning a little-known Lemotional tribute for his upcoming performance on the show. And the next day, he’ll pay tribute to a man who, in many respects, made it all possible. Two years earlier at the same event, George Strait’s “Give It Away” won Song of the Year, and co-writer Johnson took heart. “That’s the song that in many ways revived my will to keep doing this,” he says. “Not that I decided I was going to quit, but him cutting that straight, traditional-type song showed me there’s an audience out there. It instilled hope in me that people were looking for that kind of music.” And for Johnson, unquestionably, the music is everything. Strait’s cut starts a chain of events that eventually results in Mercury picking up Johnson’s self- released That Lonesome Song, now a gold record and one of the most widely praised country albums in years. And an amazing weekend in Las Vegas helps show Johnson just how far that music has taken him. “It’s like being welcomed into a family,” Johnson says of his full-circle journey. “It’s just a huge honor.” Music First: Performing for two national television broadcasts, one live and one taped, is the entirety of Johnson’s focus leading up to the shows. “I brought my band and I’m playing live,” he tells Country Aircheck two days before the awards.

Talented artists representing a vast array of religious groups in America express their religion through popular music styles. Christian Rock, Jewish Reggae and Muslim Hip-Hop are not anomalies; rather they are indicative of a larger subculture of radio-ready religious music. This pop music has a purpose but it is not a singular purpose. This music might enhance the worship experience, provide a wholesome alternative to the unsavory choices provided by secular artists, infiltrate the mainstream culture with a positive message, raise the level of musicianship in the religious subculture or appeal to a religious audience despite origins in the secular world.
