DAVID INGRAM

A well-known name in southern gospel music has found a new home. Adina Bowman, a songwriter whose work is often cited as a favourite by artists, has signed an exclusive agreement with Daywind Music Publishing.

Bowman’s songs have been recorded by some of the biggest names in southern gospel music. The Collingsworth Family, Nelons, Inspirations, and Tribute Quartet are among the many artists who have performed her work.

Bowman expressed her enthusiasm about the new partnership. “I am truly honored and grateful to join the Daywind Music Publishing family,” Bowman said. “I’m so thankful for the opportunity to create music that will encourage and reach people where they are, and I am very much looking forward to working with Rick Shelton and this incredible team.”

Rick Shelton, who serves as vice-president of Daywind Music Publishing, welcomed the addition. “We are delighted to welcome Adina to our songwriting roster,” Shelton said. “Her talent speaks for itself, but it’s her gracious, Christian spirit that makes her such a natural fit for our creative community. I’m grateful for the opportunity to champion her songs and help place them in the hands of artists and ultimately in the hearts of their audiences.”

The signing comes at the end of a successful year for Daywind Music Publishing. The company’s writers have celebrated eight number-one songs on the Singing News monthly charts this year.
Bowman’s move to Daywind marks a new chapter for a songwriter who has already made a significant impact on southern gospel music.
