In 2001 he was selected as one of the MP3.coms top Gospel artists. The title song Bridges peaked at number 11 on the MP3.com Christian Pop charts and number 15 on the Spiritual Pop charts. In 2004, Stafford performed for Blackmon Enterprises’ Gospel Hit-Breakers Showcase in North Hollywood, the Urban Gospel Alliance New Artist Showcase at the Riverside Convention center, and he headlined the West Coast Praze Show in Hollywood. His song Hold On is featured on the 2004 UGA Compilation CD. His current INDIE album, Undignified, has been reviewed as being “the most innovative vocal performance since Marvin Gaye’s What Going On record.” Bookworld Music distributes Undignified nationwide. Avery says, “I want to take the Gospel to the world through music.” Visit his website: www.averystafford.com/. |
