Sojourn Worship & Arts Pastor Mike Cosper speaks about a special evening at our Germantown campus, The 930 Art Center, with singer-songwriter Bill Mallonee:
I’m excited to invite you all to the 930 Arts Center next Friday night for a gallery opening and concert/conversation with Bill Mallonee, formerly the front man for Vigilantes of Love. Fans of Louisville’s Public Radio station – WFPK – will be familiar with many of his tunes, as will readers of Paste, who have often listed him amongst our generation’s most important songwriters. Bill’s songs and lyrics have deep roots in the devils and dust ethos of Americana songwriters.
At the show, Bill will share his songs and some of his thoughts on the creative process that he’s developed over many years on the road and stage, especially focusing on faith and the creative process. I’ll join him on a few songs, and you’ll be invited to join the conversation and ask questions.
Bill’s records are all worth a listen. My personal favorite is Audible Sigh, which features guests like Buddy and Julie Miller and Emmylou Harris. Dear Life is a quiet and sweet record with the high and lonesome sound of classic American Folk. I also have a tender spot in my heart for his Christmas record – Yonder Shines the Infant Light.
I hope to see you there.
