(Las Vegas, NV) The College of Southern Nevada announced today (July 24) that Grammy & Stellar Award-winning recording artist & music educator Brent Jones is joining their music faculty starting in Fall 2024 as director of the 100-voice CSN Gospel Choir.
“What an incredible honor to join the music faculty of the College of Southern Nevada!” says Jones. “I’ve been blessed over the years to serve as guest lecturer at many top universities—Stanford, UCLA, Oakwood, to name a few—and there is nothing I love more than pouring into young people and encouraging them to ‘live their best life!’
“With my crazy touring schedule, Artist-In-Residence at Triumph Church, radio show, busy recording schedule, and just being a husband and dad, I’m not sure how I can add anything else to my plate[.] But to whom much is given, much is required. A very special thanks to Scheli, my wife of 31 years, for her unconditional support in allowing me to live out my dreams!”
With over 37,000 students, the College of Southern Nevada is the largest college in Nevada.
Jones’ current CD, Live Your Best Life! is presently at #2 on Billboard.
