Gene Higgins Announces Retirement

October 5, 2012/by Freeman

Industry veteran Gene Higgins has announced his retirement as president of the Inspirational Country Music Association, where he has served for 20 years. Jason Higgins will now serve as President, CEO and Chairman of the Board.

“It has been an incredible journey with a whole lot of blessings and satisfaction seeing what this organization has turned into today,” said Gene Higgins. “I would love to invite all the media, industry and friends to come share in this 20 year celebration and retirement ceremony.”

Gene will continue working with Power Source Music, which promotes songs that fit the organization’s motto of Faith, Family and Country.

A special farewell to Gene is planned for Sunday, October 14 at Cornerstone Church (726 W. Old Hickory Blvd., Madison, TN). The music begins at 6:45 pm with performers including T. Graham Brown, John Berry, Stella Parton, The Roys, Jeff Bates, and many more.

The organization’s 18th Annual ICM Faith, Family, & Country Awards are scheduled for Thursday, October 18. Tickets are available here.
