Black River Christian songwriter and artist Josh Wilson's introspective single, "Dream Small," is the most added at Christian AC radio this week and is digitally available now
Written by Wilson and produced by Ben Glover, the up-tempo debut single takes listeners back to the basics of focusing on one thing at a time, highlighting the importance of raising children, loving one's neighbor, and realizing the impact of simple moments. Pulling from his daily experiences as a father, husband, and artist, Wilson's "Dream Small" serves as a reminder to not "buy the lie that you've got to do it all." It says, "Dream small/Don't buy the lie that you've got to do it all/Just let Jesus use you where you are/One day at a time, live well/Loving God and others as yourself/Find little ways where only you can help/With His great love, a tiny rock can make a giant fall/Dream small."
" 'Dream Small' is an anthem for the unsung heroes in this world," Wilson said. "It's for moms and dads, students and teachers, secretaries, caregivers, social workers, church staff members and anyone else who is living out God's love and kindness daily. No matter who we are or where we come from, we all have a part to play. And if we're faithful in those little things, as the song says, we can 'add up the small things and watch them grow bigger, the God who does all things makes oceans from rivers.' "
Anticipating the impact of "Dream Small," Black River Christian VP of Radio Promotion Brian Thiele said, "We're so excited for the opportunity to partner with radio and help spread the very important message of 'Dream Small.' Not only is this song a great fit for radio, it's also a glimpse into how Josh and his family live out their faith. The simple message that the small things can make a big difference is one that everyone needs to hear!"
Currently visiting radio stations nationwide in support of "Dream Small," Wilson continues to write and record for his forthcoming album on Black River Christian, a division of Black River Entertainment. 
The Texas-native started taking piano lessons in fourth grade, learned guitar and drums in sixth and seventh grade, and fell in love with songwriting in college at Nashville's Belmont University. A self-described introvert with an aversion to the spotlight, Wilson never dreamed he'd be the one behind the mic, but God had other plans. When he signed his first record deal in 2006, Wilson became a staple at radio, amassing six Top 10 hits on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart, including "That Was Then, This Is Now," "Savior, Please," "I Refuse," "Fall Apart," "Carry Me" and "Before The Morning," which landed the No. 4 spot on Billboard's 2012 year-end Christian songs chart.
Wilson has toured with some of the genre's biggest acts, including Third Day, Steven Curtis Chapman, Matthew West and Casting Crowns. He's been known to have as many as 20 instruments on stage at any given time (and knows how to play all of them). 
Wilson resides in Nashville. For more information about Wilson, visit JoshWilsonMusic.com.
