Don't let the name fool you. Pee Wee Callins is anything but minuscule. Especially when it comes to his head turning, at once velvety-smooth and cannon-fire voice. His is a wildly talented instrument all by itself, forged and formed after a lifetime spent singing and playing music, soaking in the very best influences from a wide variety of sources, touring, recording, and most importantly, being continually drawn by God's call on him as a minister and musician.

And now Callins gets to showcase his amazing voice for his widest audience yet with his Beatmart Recordings debut, Street Soul. Todd Collins - Beatmart's founder, as well as Pee Wee's producer and childhood friend, pulls no punches. "Pee Wee is one of the best pure singers I've ever had the privilege to work with."

The whopping 14 tracks on Street Soul spell out the details, and they reveal an artist who's all about reaching the maximum number of listeners possible, whatever their musical tastes or places in life. "The songs on this album are like a collection of short stories," says Pee Wee. "My approach to writing was to give the characters in the stories something to look forward to. The main ideas are hope, love, joy, and a better life. The conclusion is that these things can be obtained through Jesus Christ.”
