Popular Christian recording artist Clay Crosse recently attended the 2013 International Christian Retail Show (ICRS) held in St. Louis, Mo., to promote his new CD,reDedication, which is slated for a Fall release. The four-time Dove Award winner was interviewed by numerous media outlets and ministries, includingLife Today TV, CBN.com,Heritage of Truth TV, Christian Lifestyles Magazine, Control Track TV and World Magazine. Crosse, an author as well as a singer/songwriter, was also promoting his most recent book, Dashboard Jesus: Distinctive Reminders for Distracted Men, a humorous and compassionate guide for men of all ages, released in March 2013.

"I had a great time at ICRS this year," Crosse says. "My wife, Renee, was with me, and we spent two days reuniting with longtime media and industry friends and making new ones. I especially was encouraged by everyone's support and enthusiasm as I talked about my new book, Dashboard Jesus, and shared music from my new CD, reDedication. After being away for a few years, being at the conference definitely inspired me as I gear up to tour and promote the new record in the Fall."

Crosse, who has topped the charts with nine career No. 1 singles to-date, currently has two singles from reDedication, Crosse's first CD of new music since 2000, playing at Christian radio. "Working On A Building," featuring Christian music legend Russ Taff and American Idol finalist Melinda Doolittle, was recently released to AC and Gospel radio formats, and "When I Lift My Hands" has been released to Soft AC and Inspirational radio formats.

ICRS, featuring approximately 300 exhibits, brings together more than 2,000 attendees and exhibitors from the United States and more than 50 countries. The most recent show was held June 23-26 at the America's Center in in St. Louis, Mo.
