The weekend of April 20th broadcast of the Jubilee leads off with more selections from the collection of the Crabb Family hit recordings as heard in live performance . . . from the simply titled CD, The Hits … LIVE.
Then … Claude, Dean, Connie and Kim … the Hoppers … take to our Jubilee stage in a performance dating back to 1999 … as you listen to an hour of Hopper favorites, such as Steppin’ On the Clouds … from their recording titled Classics … Live in Greenville!
On the weekend of February 2nd … Paul’s Featured Artists are one of America’s best-known Southern Gospel family groups — the Hoppers. They’ll share some of the songs on their new Count Me In CD, including that title song. You’ll also hear about a new concept video made from one of the songs. And you’ll find out how this recording was done differently from most recordings produced these days. Please join Paul for his visit with Claude, Connie, Dean, Kim and Michael — the Hoppers.
And, in his Artist Spotlight is the trio known as 11th Hour. You’ll hear some of their latest songs, including their current Top 20 chart song — and two others from their Steppin’ Out CD. We’ll visit with Justin, Amber, Candice and Ethan. And you’ll find out the significance of that name, 11th Hour.
Finally … his other guests include Austin and Ethan Whisnant of the Whisnants and Jordan LeFevre of the Lefevre Quartet.

On the weekend of June 2nd … it’s a special edition of The Gospel Greats, as all of the songs will be favorite old hymns … sung by your favorite Southern Gospel artists. Hear thoughts about why the hymns are special and irreplaceable from such artists as Phil Collingsworth (Collingsworth Family), Tim Riley (Gold City), Jim & Melissa Brady and Michael Booth (Booth Brothers). If you grew up singing these great old hymns in church, you’ll probably know every one of them.
Paul’s Featured Artist on this program will be Guy Penrod with songs from his brand new CD called Hymns. Guy will explain why he wanted to do a hymns recording and why the grand old hymns remain so special for today’s generation. You’ll hear five songs from his CD, and Guy will tell you why he chose them — and why they’re so meaningful. Included will be a very special duet Guy did with the legendary George Beverly Shea, who’s 103 years old.
Finally … Paul includes an Artist Spotlight segment visit with the Hoppers, featuring three songs from their current Hymns recording. Dean Hopper will explain why, although they’ve recorded many hymns over the years, this CD is different.

Leading off this weekend of March 31st … the Jubilee features a concert recording that is now nearly 12 years old, which we think is a little hard to believe. It’s the Hoppers Shoutin’ Time performance, released in July of 2000.
Today, it’s still the same family group goin’ strong with no indication of slowing down. Has their sound changed over these 12 years? If so, how? Send us an E-mail with your thoughts.
Then … the remainder of the evening originates from the small community of Winnsboro, Louisiana. However, there’s nothing small about the performance you’ll hear. From 1983, it’s the Hemphills and the first portion of their concert recording titled Louisiana Live . . .
