Greg
Rideout, President/Lead Producer
The son of
a preacher, Greg began playing piano in church at the age of 5.
With 6 musically inclined siblings, gospel music was a staple in
the Rideout household.
A high school
football standout on Friday nights, and a faithful servant of the
Lord on Sundays, Greg developed many friends from different backgrounds.
His talents in football and academia earned him a full ride scholarship
to Truman State University in Kirksville, Missouri. He graduated
with a Bachelor of Science in 1991.
By 1999, Greg
was an accomplished small business owner. He had also wrote, directed
and produced in collaboration with his brother, Eric Rideout and
mentor, Dello Thedford, on his first gospel music project All
the Way, with the Mount Zion Youth Choir in East St. Louis,
Missouri. He had realized his dream of being on the radio with a
song he wrote called Can You See Your Blessings.
Greg continued
as choir director while obtaining his Masters in Business
Adminstration from Fontbonne University, St. Louis in 2003. Soon
thereafter, he changed to a leadership role within his day business,
providing coaching and consulting for small business owners.
The convergence
of Greg's passion for music and business background will prove to
be a powerful combination as he works in developing your music ministry.

Jasson
Martin - Producer and Musician
Jasson is a product of the musical enclave known as the "Martin
Family" household. Under the tutelage of his drummer/pastor
father and pianist/evangelist mother, Jasson's enthusiasm for music
shone early when, by age two, he could be heard laying some mean
rhythms on the family pots and pans. By adolescence, Martin had
advanced to full set in his father's churches both in Hawaii and
Californias Bay Area. Jasson has continued on that course
and can be viewed in weekly national telecasts while he drums for
Heritage Christian Center, Heavenly Sent which airs on 2 networks
locally and nationally on The Word Network or on the road with Timothy
Martin and the Workshop Choir (TMWC), in weekly services and events
for As One Ministries and for a host of other acts around the state
of Colorado.
While Jasson
cites both his father and brother, Tarell Martin, as critical influences
on his playing style and, he is adamant about the continued development
of acquired techniques, his playing extends beyond grooves and rolls.
Music production and outreach lies at the center Martin's heart:
"My overall goal is to affect as many people, especially young
people, through my music in a positive way. To also use the knowledge
I have gained through my music and doors it has opened for me to
help others reach their goals musically." Jasson Martin is
a man of both skill and substance but it is his generosity of spirit
that has destined him for greatness.
