 Tim Rushlow to Release New Solo Christian
CD UNFINISHED SYMPHONY and
Single “Rain Down on Me”
cover shot.bmp

Nashville, TN (August 2011) – Tim Rushlow, former front man of one of country music’s most successful vocal groups, Little Texas, has just completed his first solo Christian music release entitled UNFINISHED SYMPHONY, which was produced by the highly respected and award winning producer Ian Eskelin. 
 
“When you spend time writing and recording with an artist you certainly get a clear picture of where their heart is.  Tim Rushlow is a refreshingly honest outspoken believer with a heart for the lost, a dedicated father who is in love with his wife, and oh... a ridiculous singer who should consider doing this professionally! I'm glad to call him a friend and can't wait to see what God has in store for him and his fans as he shares his faith through his new music,” says  Eskelin.
 
Rushlow has wanted to make a Christian record for quite some time but he says that he needed to do it in God’s time. “I’ve been really, really wanting to do this for years and it just wasn’t time,” Rushlow says of recording his Christian debut. “I’ve been a believer for years. This is not a genre hop that’s convenient for me. I’m not doing a one-off record in the Christian industry and cutting a pop/country record next year.  This is a career move that I felt called to do.  It’s about ministry and being able to touch lives with this music. I had some growing up to do over the past few years to get to the place I’m at now as a husband, as a father, as a man, as a singer and as a believer. I’m excited to see where it goes,” says Rushlow.
 
The debut single from Rushlow’s new offering is called “Rain Down on Me,” and is a message that he was inspired to write after looking inward, wanting to express his need and appreciation of God’s love.  The pop power ballad is one of the most moving and inspirational songs Rushlow has ever performed and Christian radio stations are already embracing the new song and Rushlow’s move into the Christian music genre.
 
"I knew of Tim's success in the 90's, working just down the hall at Warner Bros. Nashville in the Warner Alliance Gospel division. I've always felt he had an amazing work ethic, huge vocal chops and uncanny songwriting abilities. When approached with the opportunity to actually help him bring his God-given gift into the market I've loved and worked in for 30+ years - I jumped at the chance! Tim and Ian have crafted songs that are refreshingly honest and spiritually invigorating - ones that I believe would benefit every Christian radio station that plays them. This is what I'm after, and it's an honor," comments Chris Hauser, Hauser Promotions.
 
“There's rarely a shortage of polished, pop-worship songs available to Christian radio. What impacted me immediately after my initial listen to Tim's new project was the rawness of his lyrics and the passion in his voice. This, I believe, is what Christian radio is always on the lookout for: authentic music from artists singing about the struggles of real life and the hope of the Gospel through it. His song craftsmanship is as  approachable and relatable as he is as a person. This entire album is full of songs that meet a constant, often-unmet need at Radio,” says Matt Ingle, Patton House Entertainment.
 
UNFINISHED SYMPHONY will be released later this year on a new record label called Liquid Spins Records.  More information about the new company and an official launch will come in the near future.  
 
Rushlow is still represented by long-time manager, Christy DiNapoli and the two have been in collaboration since their earlier twenties. This speaks for the integrity Rushlow has as a man and a professional.
 
“I have managed Tim Rushlow's career for the last twenty two years. I've been with him through all the good times and the bad. His faith and positive attitude have been the driving force behind all of his success. His dream has always been to make a difference and shed a positive light in the lives of others through his music. Now is his time, and I'm planning on another twenty two years of friendship and support to make that happen,” says DiNapoli.
 
For now, Rushlow is enjoying making new friends in Christian music and who are richly blessing his life.
