Robert Pierre Kicks Off the Believe Tour in Nashville

Nashville, TN – Fourteen year-old thinkaboutit records recording artist Robert Pierre recently kicked off national non-profit Christ in Youth’s Believe Tour in Nashville, Tenn., introducing songs from his debut album, Inside Out, which releases November 7, 2006. Performing with a live band, Pierre received an enthusiastic response from the crowd of junior high students and youth workers.

Pierre shared the stage with Youth Specialties President Mark Oestreicher, rock worship band Foundation Red and drama ministry One Time Blind. The Believe Tour events are packed with high-energy programming specifically geared toward the tween generation and include small group discussions, one-on-one interaction with the students, Biblical teaching and worship. Throughout the tour’s October 2006-April 2007 run, Pierre will connect with more than 17,000 junior high students and their sponsors during the two-day events, reaching ten markets.

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 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.
