Tillymann Music Group announced today the signing of an agreement with RED Distribution for physical and digital distribution in the U.S. and Canada. The distributor will be carrying the complete catalog of Platinum-Selling Artist and Grammy Award® Nominee Tamela Mann including her upcoming album release, One Way, and NAACP Image® Award-Winning Comedian David Mann.
“I have great respect for RED’s leadership and complete confidence in the team’s capabilities. Tillymann Music Group is excited by the synergy of collaborating with our new distributor, and we look forward to this new venture,” said David Mann, president of Tillymann Music.
“We are delighted to be joining forces with Tamela Mann and Tillymann Music Group. The new music from the upcoming album is stunning. I have tremendous admiration for their award-winning catalogue, and this upcoming Tamela Mann release marks the beginning of an exciting new partnership for RED Distribution,” said President Bob Morelli.
Tamela is an accomplished NAACP Image Award winner, GRAMMY® Award nominee, BET Award winner, eight-time Stellar Gospel Music Award and four-time GMA Dove Award-winning singer, actress, songwriter, producer, and businesswoman. Tamela’s seven-time Stellar Gospel Music Award-winning, two-time GMA Dove Award-winning, gold-certified album Best Days debuted in 2012 at No. 1 on multiple music sales charts and includes the No. 1 platinum-selling single “Take Me To The King,” which earned Tamela her first GRAMMY ® Award nomination for Best Gospel/Contemporary Christian Music Performance. Tamela is the first Gospel lead artist in Billboard Gospel Radio chart history to score three consecutive No. 1s from an album. The historic Gospel radio chart honor includes Best Days’ No. 1 chart toppers, “Take Me To The King,” “I Can Only Imagine,” and “This Place.” Tamela’s streak of three consecutive Billboard Gospel radio No. 1s is the most by a lead artist in the history of this chart. Tamela is set to release her fourth solo studio album One Way in 2016 through Tillymann Music and RED Distribution.
