JJ Heller gets national US exposure through FOX TV series
AFTER YEARS of being a critically acclaimed independent
singer/songwriter, JJ
Heller has been catapulted into America's national spotlight
through the unexpected use of a Heller track on the major FOX TV
series So You Think You Can Dance. Contestant Diana Dreckler chose
JJ's song "Your Hands" from her 2008 album 'Painted Red'. As a result
of the TV exposure Houston-based FM station KSBJ decided to do
something that it hadn't done in nearly four years, add an independent
artist's song to the station's regular rotation. "Your Hands" went on
to lodge in Billboard's Christian Songs chart while the album
registered in Billboard's Folk Albums chart.
