Robert Pierre to Launch Debut CD at House of Blues

Nashville, TN – Fourteen year old thinkaboutit records artist Robert Pierre is celebrating the November 7th release of his debut album, Inside Out, with a special "Inside Out Orlando" concert event to be held at the House of Blues in Orlando, Fla., on Sunday, November 5, 2006. Free and open to the public, the event will run from 6:00-8:00 p.m. EST, with doors opening at 5:30 p.m. Pierre will perform six songs from Inside Out with a live band and will be joined by youth speaker Justin Lookadoo.

In the months leading up to his album release, Pierre has been introducing tweens and their parents to his music through events like Rock the Universe, held at Universal Studios Florida® theme park in Orlando, and the Christ in Youth Believe Tour, which hits ten markets throughout its October 2006-April 2007 run. His interactive website further acquaints visitors with the teen artist by offering a preview of Inside Out, through a flash audio jukebox player, and downloads of buddy icons, banners, avatars and screensavers.

With a passionate voice and a message of hope, Robert Pierre connects to both his peers and their parents, filling the recent void in the tween market. His album, Inside Out, touches on themes of God’s love, walking by faith and the difference one person can make, as well as tackling the timely discussion of evolution vs. the case for a Creator. The CD, produced by Robert White Johnson (Celine Dion, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Van Zant), The Stitts Brothers (Chris Tomlin, Al Green) and Dove Award-winning singer/songwriter Al Denson, reflects a young man with a strong desire to develop a music ministry to youth and music lovers alike.

Robert Pierre’s musical journey began in the fall of 2005 when what started out as a simple holiday gift recording for friends and family quickly caught the attention of Robert’s local Christian radio station and beyond. Within days, and without a promotional team, the CD gained the favor of hundreds of local and regional stations nationwide. There were so many requests for Robert’s music that his family decided to post it online for 10 days of free downloading, and thousands of downloads were recorded. This overwhelming interest in his music encouraged Robert’s passionate desire to use his God-given gift to reach out to his peers with the message of the Gospel. Now, with the assistance of a team of seasoned industry veterans as well as his loving family behind him, Robert is set to impact youth around the country with Inside Out.

Robert Pierre's Inside Out will be distributed in the CBA market by Provident-Integrity Distribution and by Sony BMG in the general market. For more information about Robert Pierre and Inside Out, visit www.robertpierre.com.
