Invite Ginny Owens to Your Home

You can now invite singer and songwriter Ginny Owens to your own home as she plays an intimate concert for you, your friends and your family.  This is what Ginny writes:

"I want to share an idea I had with you, and l need your help to make it happen. Since I'll be on the road this summer playing festivals, I thought it would be great fun to stop by your house to play a concert along the way!  What do you think? Fabulous plan or what?

Many of you know I love the cozy, casual evenings where there's time for storytelling and chatting with you.  Sitting in your living room, playing music for you and your closest friends, sounds to me like the ultimate, intimate concert! 

I'm sure some of you have enjoyed the experience of hosting house shows before, and for those of you who haven't but are interested, it's easier than you might think.  You provide the space and chairs, and we bring everything else! 

Fill out this FORM if you're interested in learning more about hosting one of these special evenings." 

Owens was born in Jackson, Mississippi, with poor eyesight and has been blind since the age of two. She earned her bachelor of music education in 1997 from Belmont University, but found that most people were skeptical about hiring a blind music teacher. She entered the music business by writing songs for Michael Puryear's Final Four Publishing, which led to a number of labels competing for her, before she chose Rocketown Records.

She concentrated in singing and songwriting and began making CDs, and has been producing them since 1999 with Rocketown Records, a label under Michael W. Smith. Owens won the Nashville "Lilith Fair '99 Talent Search", which earned her a spot singing at that year's festival, and the following year performed at the Sundance Film Festival.

Her music has been featured on television shows, such as Roswell and Felicity. Owens has also received three Dove awards, including New Artist of the Year (2000) and Inspirational Recorded Song of the Year (2001) for "Blessed" with Rachael Lampa and Cindy Morgan.

In 2005, Owens started a non-profit organization called the Fingerprint Initiative. The organization has worked in conjunction with other groups, such as Compassion International, International Justice Mission, and Habitat for Humanity. Owens was featured on national television, including NBC's Today Show and CNN,for her contribution to help rebuild New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. Owens has just recently released her new album, "I Know a Secret".
