Nashville, TN (December 15, 2011) ----- A hearty congratulations are in order for Centricity Music's Aaron Shust for reaching a career milestone. Shust's single, "My Hope Is In You," this week became the longest running #1 song in 2011 on the AC Monitor chart, which remained in the top spot for eight weeks. The single also was #1 on the iTunes Single Christian chart last week. This is the longest running #1 for Shust as an artist and is the first #1 hit at AC radio for Centricity Music. The project is Shust's debut with Centricity Music and the song is from the album, This Is What We Believe.

"What an amazing song! What an amazing artist!," exclaims Mike Prendergast, Program Director, KLTY, Dallas, TX.

"With the economy and condition of our world the past few years so many people are losing hope," says Joe Buchanan, Music Director, New Life Media. "I'm so grateful we have a song like 'My Hope Is In You' to point people to where true hope can be rediscovered."

Shust's follow-up single, "Risen Today" from This Is What We Believe, will go for adds at radio January 20, 2012. The song is a re-make of the well-loved hymn, "Christ The Lord Is Risen Today," and gives the classic tune an upbeat delivery but with the same respect for the message of the lyrics. Fans will have the chance to hear Shust perform the song live on the spring leg of the highly-popular Called To Love Tour that launces in March 2012.

Once released, it shot to #1 on six charts by April of 2006. At the GMA Awards in 2007, Shust was honored with three Dove Awards for Song of the Year ("My Savior, My God"), Songwriter of the Year, and New Artist of the Year. Shust's second studio album, Whispered And Shouted, released in June 2007 and in 2009, Shust released his third and final CD for Brash Records, Take Over.
