Nashville, TN (June 29, 2007) – Fervent Record’s dynamic tween pop group, pureNRG, will release their self-titled DVD on July 24. |
| The DVD is jam-packed with 30 minutes of videos and personal coverage, including personal testimonies, of each group member, Jordan (14), Caroline (12), and Carolyne (11). pureNRG’s strong vocals, jaw-dropping gymnastics and professional dancing are showcased on two music videos, “Footloose” and “What If,” which are also songs featured on their self-titled, May 1 CD debut. A Nashville dance studio segment further documents pureNRG’s choreography rehearsal for “What If” followed by video during a dance break. Fans will additionally get a more personal look as the camera follows them home to see how each member spends their free time.
“Most kids our age don’t get to do what we do,” says Jordan. “We feel really blessed and are thrilled with the response our music is getting. But more importantly, we want to be good role models for the youth of this country and if we can make a difference in someone’s life, then we are grateful that our music ministry is having an impact.” Since the release of pureNRG’s acclaimed debut CD, the project is rapidly climbing on SoundScan charts and this week is positioned in the Top 10 at CBA retail and Top 40 for combined CBA and general market sales. pureNRG is also winning fans at radio, as the group’s song “Footloose” is currently gaining spins on Radio Disney, which spotlights the most up and coming tween artists. The group also recently performed at a Summer “Brown Bag” event sponsored by Tulsa’s Christian radio station, KXOJ. The new-artist concert drew the second largest crowd in KXOJ’s history of Brown Bag events, according to the station. pureNRG is also getting excellent media coverage with recent appearances on Good Day Atlanta, Atlanta Live, Gospel Music Channel, AP Radio and Focus On The Family Radio. Recent reviews can be found at About.com, (“12 bubbly pop/dance tracks make this debut release from pureNRG a bulls-eye hit!”) and ChristianRockersOnline.com, (“The band wanted to make a release that not only appealed to kids but one that the parents could also enjoy.

Additional coverage includes an interview on the mainstream website, Tommy2.net, a Plugged In magazine review and upcoming media includes a July feature in Cross Point Magazine, cover stories on Caroline and Carolyne for In The Times and Aspiring Retail will have an August review on the group.
