–August 3, 2012 – In less than a year since his memorable standing

The Awards will be presented on the evening of Thursday, October 18 at Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville.
Geoffrey Andrews has proven to be an exciting new industry voice whose soaring vocal abilities on his debut single “A Miracle” found
him being instantly compared to Josh Groban in quality and musical
style—although his vocal signature remains refreshing unique.

among the Top 10 candidates announced this week in Nashville by the ICM
Faith, Family & Country Association include:
- New Artist
- Songwriter
- Video (“A Miracle”)
The Spring 2012 release of his debut
album, “Geoffrey Andrews” has to date produced four successful radio
singles for the 28 year old Texan—all of which have proven his
versatility as a writer. They include “A Miracle,” “If God Said This
Was Heaven,” “70 Miles In A 45,” and his current release “The Same
God.”
Because of the uniqueness of his voice and the strength of the song, “A Miracle”
was serviced to radio across multiple formats including Contemporary
Christian, Southern Gospel, AC, Inspirational, and Praise & Worship.
Noted Gene Higgins, President of the ICM Faith, Family and Country Association:
“This is an amazing new artist who is virtually limitless. With “A Miracle,”
we felt we were presenting a powerful new artist with a song that has
the production and vocal quality that gives it the potential to connect
