National Christian Recording Artists to Perform Dec. 8 at Calvary

GOLDEN VALLEY, MINN. (Nov. 15, 2018) - The goal of national Christian recording artists Citizen Way and Chris August is to deliver “not just music for music’s sake” but “music with a message.” The public is invited to their “Hope for All Seasons” concert at Calvary Lutheran Church, 7520 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minn., on Saturday, Dec. 8, at 7 p.m. Doors will open at 6:15 p.m.

Tickets are available for $20 per person (preferred seating) and $12 per person (general admission) by visiting calvary.org/concert.

Citizen Way broke through the music scene in 2013 with their powerful debut album “Love Is the Evidence.” The band quickly drew in a devoted fan base as their hits "Bulletproof,” “Should’ve Been Me” and "How Sweet the Sound" took Christian radio by storm. The band continues to make an impact both on and off the air as they’ve toured the country alongside acts like MercyMe, Jeremy Camp, Mandisa and more. Their 2016 release “2.0” is available now.

Joining Citizen Way on tour is Chris August, who began his music career with such secular artists as Brian McKnight and Jessica Simpson. He became a solo Christian singer in 2010, earning the GMA Dove Awards’ New Artist of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year honors in 2011. His album “No Far Away” also won Dove’s Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year. His song “Starry Night”—which was nominated as Pop/Contemporary Song of the Year—reached No. 1 on the Billboard Christian Songs chart. “Starry Night” is from the album “No Far Away” (2010). Other releases include “The Upside of Down” (2012), “The Maker” (2015) and his most recent album “Seasons” (August 2018).

The mission of Calvary is to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. Established in 1946, Calvary offers five weekly worship services and a wide variety of activities for children, youth and adults. For more information, visit calvary.org or call 763-545-5659.
