Let's Talk: GMG Tony B. Dickerson

•Tony B. Dickerson (now embracing the resonant name"Barnshaw") is not just an  artist; he is a catalytic force in inspirational music. A two-time Grammy-considered  songwriter and performer, his journey is a masterclass in musical synthesis. He  channels the raw soul of gospelpioneers, the fearless innovation of funk, and the  lyrical depth of classic songwriting into a sound that is both timeless and urgently contemporary. •Dickerson’s credentials are a testament to a life dedicated to craft. From his  foundational role with the legendary O’LandaDraper & The Associates to serving as  a U.S. Navy musician and worship leader, his path has been one of disciplined  artistry. His pen authored the Tennessee Mass Choir’s celebrated anthem, “The  Greatest of All Time,” and his own 2024 release, “The Song Within,” continues to garner acclaim, featured on platforms like GospelTop40.com. As a voting member of  the Recording Academy, he helps shape the industry’s future while honoring its  roots. •On stage, Dickerson is a “being himself” kind of entertainer; authentic, magnetic, and  deeply connected. Off stage, he is an architect of community. He is the founder and  dynamic bandleader of Tony B. Dickerson & The Essential Band, the guiding teacher  at Barnshaw's School of Piano/ Voice,and the visionary director of The Songwriters Group, International. His mission extends beyond performance to education,  mentorship, and providing "excellent musical service that produces positive results." •Tony stated “My mission is to serve through sound- to fuse the traditional and the contemporary  into a message that resonates, uplifts, and endures.” •“No Battles" featuring Carla Marie Barnes  isavailable for download & purchase on all digital platforms.•Awarded a “Top Gospel Music Podcast” Badge from Feedspot which has named Let’s Talk: Gospel Music Gold oneof the Top 10 Gospel Music Podcasts on the web! •LET’S TALK: GOSPEL MUSIC GOLD RADIO SHOW AIRS EVERY SATURDAY 9:00 AM CST / 10:00 AM EST ON WMRM-DB INTERNET RADIO STATION  AND WJRG RADIO INTERNET RADIO STATION 12:00 PM EST / 11:00 AM CST •There is a Let's Talk: Gospel Music Gold Facebookpage ( @LetsTalk2GMG ) where all episodes are posted as well.    •The Podcast and Radio shows are heard anywhere in the World on the Internet! •ANSONIA’S BOOK RELEASES•“Legacy of James C.
