GLOVERSVILLE — Over the weekend of October 24th - 26th the Dorn Space Performance Center located in  Gloversville NY held their annual Dorn Space Independent Artists Awards Ceremony. This event took place over three nights presenting awards to nearly fifty independent regional  individual artists and groups consisting of musicians, singers, comedians and poets. Honored for a second time was Rustic Chill Music Ministry from Schoharie County who  received the “Outstanding Original Band Award”. 

In 2023 Rustic Chill Music Ministry won the “Original Album of the Year Award”. Rustic Chill Music Ministry’s original music has been described by critics as “a blend of raw  acoustic soul, heartfelt lyrics, and Holy Spirit-filled worship. They are more than just a band;  they’re a movement. Their sound combines the peace of the countryside with the fire of revival,  healing hearts, changing lives, and glorifying Jesus.” 

Their ministry is focused on helping churches and other faith based entities to raise funds so they  can do God’s work in their local communities and world wide. 

These causes can range from supporting a local family in crisis to supporting worldwide  ministries and causes. 

Currently RCMM is spearheading a fundraising effort to provide food and much needed medical supplies for over two hundred orphans and impoverished families in Mubende Uganda.
