Congratulations
The Excellence in Christian Music Awards (ECMA) was created not only to promote excellence in Christian Music but to also fill a gap.
The Vision to equip Christian/Gospel music artists with the tools necessary to be successful in the music industry came to Mr. Henry Harris nearing the end of his eight year tenure as President with the Stellar Awards Gospel Music Academy (SAGMA).
In the rise of working with independent Christian/Gospel artists, he noticed year after year, season after season as they diligently invested their energies, time, and monies to gain footing; participating in numerous award shows, programs, and conferences with their hopes—of becoming successful, winning coveted prizes, and achieving industry recognition—were being
met with disappointment.
Though the traditional process represents the industry standard for artist recognition, the Excellence in Christian Music Awards represents need change. Change that encourages not only growth and expansion of the artists, their careers, and their ministries, but ECMA also encourages the forward progression and diversity in the Christian/Gospel music industry.
The Christian Music Industry Participants being honored and recognized this ECMA Weekend have been afforded the opportunity to participate in an awards process based on an objective and unbiased point system designed to identify those candidates who have exhibited EXCELLENCE for final recognition in the ECMA national awards program.
This ECMA project is shaping the future of the next generation of artists in the Christian/Gospel music industry and represents a new era in the education, motivation, and training of Christian/Gospel music artists and the industry as a whole. Join us in celebration of their efforts!

Known as "Major", Daquan J. Major is from Charleston, SC and stepped out into the ministry in 2004. Feeling a dif-ferent vibe other than the traditional praise and worship music, Major began expressing his passion for Christ through rap lyricism. His use of the na-tive vernacular unique to Charleston delivers an exciting but distinctly differ-ent perspective to rap music. Major's focus in his ministry is to in-ject into mainstream and underground rap communities the Word of God. He creates spiritually aggressive music that combats a spiritually aggressive adversary by actually taking the Holy Scriptures and placing them in rhyme. His goal is to get the music to the people who need it most--the "unchurched.”

For Trish Standley August 2011 marked the release of her second project titled, “Redemption.” In a time where the climate is on “preaching to the choir,” the ministry of Trish Standley has been specifically charged with seeking the heart of God to draw those who are truly lost. The assignment, she believes, is drawing people unto HIM through the same spirit that Christ demonstrated in the Word. Through the many out-reach ministries she supports, Trish’s charge is to connect the hurt to the ONLY true healer by way of song. Her heart is displayed in her music and can be found by visiting: www.jansjoy.net
