NASHVILLE - Arkin Terrell has many talents. He’s a lay preacher at his church in Mississippi, and one of the most gifted building framers in the Southeast. Then there is his singing.

Terrell, as this debut album shows, is one of the most promising newcomers to arrive on the Christian music scene in years. Working with the A-list production team of Chip and Billy Davis in Nashville, and recording tunes by many of Music Row’s elite Christian and Country songwriters, Terrell has unleashed a powerhouse debut CD.

With the backing and faith of Jim Murphy, the Arkin Terrell project has become a reality, and soon figures to be impacting Christian Radio, Christian coffeehouses, and churches nationwide.
