Atlanta, GA was on fire as Gospel music’s biggest and brightest stars, producers, and industry personalities invaded the city for The 16th Annual BMI Trailblazers of Gospel Music Awards.  BMI Vice President Catherine Brewton described the event as a “homecoming”. Sixteen years ago the first BMI Trailblazers Event was held in Atlanta with just a keyboard, drum set, and a hundred people. Since its humble beginnings the event has gone on to be considered the Gospel equivalent of the annual Clive Davis Grammy Party. In past years the event was apart of Stellar Award Weekend, but when it was decided that The Stellar Awards would be held in Las Vegas, BMI decided to return “home” to its Atlanta beginnings.

You could feel the electrifying energy the moment you entered the Rialto Theater in downtown Atlanta. For many, this was a reunion and the first time they saw their colleagues and friends in the New Year. The room was filled with the industry’s top artists, songwriters, producers, and industry personalities. All of these people had gathered together to honor this year’s honorees: Israel Houghton, LaShun Pace, and The Anointed Pace Sisters.
