Music Notes – June 15
Here are some recent notable highs in Christian and Gospel music from around the web:
– If you are in the Dallas area, check out KLTY’s free annual Christian concert, Celebrate Freedom, on June 27, 2009. This concert is the largest free outdoor concert in the country, and will feature artists such as Kirk Franklin, Kari Jobe, Jeremy Camp, The News Boys, Mark Schultz and more. It’s a wonderful event for the whole family and an amazing time of worship – and who can turn down FREE? Last year I was able to go and saw some of my favorite contemporary Christian artists perform, but a storm caused the concert to end early just before Kirk Franklin went on. The concert will also take place in Atlanta on September 5, 2009. For more information visit http://klty.com/celebratefreedom.
