NASHVILLE, Tenn. (November 7, 2013) - Twelve-year-old YouTube 

sensation Christopher Duffley, who is blind and has autism, spent the days surrounding the recent release of his debut CD, Eyes Of My Heart, performing in Middle Tennessee. Christopher, whose CD was released October 22, performed a series of concerts at World Outreach Church in Murfreesboro, Tenn., and a fundraiser for the Murfreesboro Crisis Pregnancy Center.

Christopher performed at four services at the World Outreach Church, including a performance with the WOC Choir. He and his family also met with scores of friends and supporters during the four-day tour to Middle Tennessee. 

The New Hampshire resident, who is garnering attention throughout the U.S. not only for his remarkable talent, but also for the challenges with which he lives, performed the inspirational and patriotic songs from his CD at the various concerts.

Christopher's story as a popular entertainer began when a video of the then 10-year-old Christopher singing "Open The Eyes of My Heart" at the Capitol Center for the Performing Arts in New Hampshire went viral, garnering more than 4 million views on YouTube. News of his remarkable talent spread like wildfire, culminating in Christopher singing the national anthem for the Boston Red Sox baseball team at Fenway Park.

Demand for Christopher to release a CD swelled, propelling the young singer and his family to travel to Nashville to work with 9-time Dove Award-winning producer/songwriter/arranger Steven V. Taylor (Kirk Franklin, Michael W. Smith, Natalie Grant). 

The result is an 11-song compilation of inspirational, patriotic and sacred songs, titled Eyes Of My Heart, that reach deep into listeners' hearts and encourage them to see with new eyes. 

"We chose the title from the song 'Open the Eyes of My Heart' because of its meaning in our lives," says Christine Duffley, Christopher's mother. "It was the first real song Christopher sang when he was 3 years old. He sang it during a mission trip and people broke down in tears. When Christopher sings, 'Open The Eyes Of My Heart,' I remember to not only see with my physical eyes, but to see as God sees--through my heart."
