ATLANTA, Ga., November 13 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Gospel Music Channel (GMC) will give fans a weekly dose of everything Christian/gospel music in the new weekly primetime series The Kitchen Sink set to premiere this Sat. Nov. 17 at 8:00 p.m. (ET/PT).

The Kitchen Sink will be an hour-long music performance, news, entertainment and variety program and will be the only national show of its kind featuring Christian and gospel music. The show will be a combination of live in-studio performances by top artists, lively interviews, world premiere videos, the latest entertainment news and previews, undiscovered new talent, inspiring feature stories and more.

The series premiere features American Idol Season 7 finalist Chris Sligh and artist/songwriter (and former member of dcTalk) Kevin Max as the show's first in-studio guests. Controversial Irish songstress Sinead O'Connor will be featured in a profile and interview about her recent Old Testament inspired CD Theology, her first CD to be sold in Christian retail stores. O'Connor also performs songs from the record at a private show shot at Joe's Pub in New York City.

Artists scheduled to perform on The Kitchen Sink in the weeks ahead include: Jars of Clay; Trin-i-tee 5:7; Brandon Heath; Distinguished (featuring former NFL players Gino Mingo and Marcus Price); Darlene McCoy; Jake Smith; DecembeRadio; VaShawn Mitchell; Canton Jones; Aiyesha Woods; Joann Rosario; Angella Christie and Zie'l. Ernie Johnson, Jr., host of Inside The NBA on TNT also drops by.

The network announced today that Atlanta media personality Elle Duncan will serve as the host of The Kitchen Sink. A self-described "Christian music fanatic," Duncan, 24, is a popular Atlanta media personality who co-hosts with legendary radio personality Ryan Cameron on top Atlanta radio station V-103. She is also a sideline reporter for the Atlanta Hawks and a regular guest host for Atlanta's NBC Affiliate WXIA-TV's "Falcons Extra" show. Duncan has been named one of the "50 Most Beautiful Atlantans" by an Atlanta lifestyle magazine.

GMC also announced that INO Records recording artist Mike Farris will be the Music Composer for The Kitchen Sink. Farris will compose and record the show's musical breaks and his recording of "Precious Lord" from his most recent album Salvation in Lights will be the show's opening theme. Farris is best known in the rock world for the Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies, a '90s southern boogie band from Nashville that drew inevitable comparisons to Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Allman Brothers Band and also fronted Double Trouble, the rhythm section of the late guitar legend Stevie Ray Vaughn.

The series premiere of The Kitchen Sink will encore this Saturday at 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. Beginning Sat. Nov. 24, each new episode will premiere Saturday nights at 8:00 p.m. with encores at 11:00 p.m., Sundays at noon, 6:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., Mondays at 10:00 a.m. and Tuesdays at 2:00 p.m.
