From touring in the group 4Him to working as a worship pastor to leading a radio show, I've had the opportunity to be a part of the Christian Music industry for the last four decades. I'm Andy Chrisman and I've had the unique opportunity to tour with, record with, and become friends with just about everyone within the Christian Music industry. I think this makes me the perfect person to tell their stories. Welcome to 1 Degree of Andy!

John Michael Talbot
I'm not sure there's been anyone else in the history of CCM like John Michael Talbot! From success as a member of the rock band Mason Profitt, to becoming one of the best selling Christian artists of all time, to becoming a Roman Catholic monk and starting a monastery - there's plenty to talk about with one of the most fascinating people I've ever met!

Andy & Mark - Song stories (and lots of other stuff) PART 1
When Mark and I sit down together I never know where things are going to go! My goal was to get as many stories behind the hit songs he's written as I could, but of course we mostly ended up laughing and chasing rabbits as we took a look back on our careers. And we talked so much I was able to get two episodes full of content! Stay tuned for PART 2 next week...

Billy Sprague
Billy Sprague is one of the most important artists and writers of the golden era of CCM! I first met Billy at one of his famous "golden scoop" ice cream parties in Nashville in the early 90s, and I've been a big fan of his music and his books for as long as I can remember. I'm excited to reconnect with Billy and share a bit of his amazing journey with you!

Andy Ivey - 4HIM's first A&R Director
You cannot tell the story of 4HIM without Andy Ivey! Andy was our first A&R director at Benson and was instrumental in helping us put together our first 4 albums, and in the process became a lifelong friend. If you like "behind the scenes" music industry talk you're gonna love this episode!

Brian White
One of the most successful songwriters in modern country music is a veteran of CCM. Brian White and I go way back, in fact it's hard to find a picture of me in the early 90s without Brian somewhere in the background! From his days as the leader of Brian White and Justice to being a hit song writing machine Brian is a fixture in the Nashville music scene. But he is, most importantly to me, my friend. And I think you're gonna love his story!

Customer Reviews
Incredible
It’s been a fantastic experience to hear stories from these incredible artists. To hear the stories and how they began and the impacts they are still having has made even better. I grew up on many of these artists and it’s caused me to go back and buy their music and add it back to my playlists. Thanks Andy and the artists for taking the time to do this.
Blast from the Past
As a believer who grew up (and still do) listen to my favorite CCM artists and then was a concert promoter for several years, it is wonderful to hear intimate conversations with many of those I’ve met at concerts, festivals and churches along the way!
Reliving my teen music
As a teenager and church musician in the late 80’s and into the 90’s. CCM music was what I listened to. This podcast really takes me back to those days to the music and artist I grew up on. I really enjoy it.
