Awakening Events Announces the First Live Concert Drive-In Theater Series Featuring NEWSBOYS United, TOBYMAC and More Awakening Events announces the first Live Concert Drive-In Theater Series featuring NEWSBOYS United, TOBYMAC and more. Platinum®-selling Newsboys United and Multi Platinum®-, Seven Time GRAMMY®-Winner TobyMac to visit 12 cities on the Summer leg of the Drive-In Theater Concert Series. Nashville, TN - On March 12, Awakening Events pushed pause on five national concert tours. Being a national tour producer, Awakening Events was not faced with a stand-alone venue challenge but taking music to the people coast to coast. The idea for these outdoor live concerts first came about during discussions with the innovative team behind NEWSBOYS. The concept, a first-of-its-kind for Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) since the advent of the COVID-19 crisis, will showcase the best in CCM through a series of concerts and will include shows from Platinum®-selling hitmakers Newsboys United, Multi Platinum®-, Seven Time GRAMMY®-Winner TobyMac, and more. “Everyone was looking for answers on what we could do to play live again. The NEWSBOYS management team sent an email reminding me of a series of self- contained blow-up dome shows they did from 2000 – 2004. Then a week later they sent an email saying Dan, look at this list of Drive-Ins. It was the spark that created the fire we all have to do what we do, again. Then immediately came discussions with our other long-time national touring artist relationships at Creative Artist Agency. Through the course of our discussions, we quickly realized that there was an even bigger opportunity for the CCM industry to serve America during this time.”, said Dan Fife, President of Awakening Events. “Awakening Events has been producing concerts nationwide for years and their heart and desire to minister while providing quality entertainment made them the perfect partner for this concept” said long-time NEWSBOYS manager Wes Campbell. He also added, “the Drive-in Theater Tour concept allows fans to gather together again in a safe and sensible environment while taking part in the live concert experiences that both NEWSBOYS and TOBYMAC have been known for providing for years.” “We are so excited to be able to come and play to fans all across America” said Michael Tait, lead singer of NEWSBOYS United. “COVID-19 has changed all of our lives, but through it, we have learned that love is patient and love is kind. Now we have the opportunity to come together safely and express our love for our Creator who has been with us through these trying times.” “A few Saturday nights every summer my family and I head to a local drive in move theater. We always love it” said TobyMac. “When we started discussing live shows in this quarantine season and the idea of playing drive-ins came up… I said, let’s gooooo! It feels like summer, safe for everybody, and we all get to enjoy live music again. We bout to make some memories” To help accommodate those that have been isolating together, tickets to the tours will be sold by the car, ensuring that fans will be able to experience the concerts with those closest to them, while also adhering to all state and local social distancing guidelines. Full list of cities and dates for the tour will be released this Friday, May 22, at 12pm central time via the tour’s website DriveInTheaterTour.com The Drive-In Theater Tour is exclusively produced by Awakening Events.

  • Christian Rock Concerts As a Meeting Between Religion and Popular Culture
    ANDREAS HAGER Christian Rock Concerts as a Meeting between Religion and Popular Culture Introduction Different forms of artistic expression play a vital role in religious practices of the most diverse traditions. One very important such expression is music. This paper deals with a contemporary form of religious music, Christian rock. Rock or popular music has been used within Christianity as a means for evangelization and worship since the end of the 1960s.1 The genre of "contemporary Christian music", or Christian rock, stands by definition with one foot in established institutional (in practicality often evangelical) Christianity, and the other in the commercial rock music industry. The subject of this paper is to study how this intermediate position is manifested and negotiated in Christian rock concerts. Such a performance of Christian rock music is here assumed to be both a rock concert and a religious service. The paper will examine how this duality is expressed in practices at Christian rock concerts. The research context of the study is, on the one hand, the sociology of religion, and on the other, the small but growing field of the study of religion and popular culture. The sociology of religion discusses the role and posi- tion of religion in contemporary society and culture. The duality of Chris- tian rock and Christian rock concerts, being part of both a traditional religion and a modern medium and business, is understood here as a concrete exam- ple of the relation of religion to modern society. The study of the relations between religion and popular culture seems to have been a latent field within research on religion at least since the 1970s, when the possibility of the research topic was suggested in a pioneer volume by John Nelson (1976).

  • Tobymac I Just Need You Free Mp3 Download Tobymac
    tobymac i just need you free mp3 download tobyMac. The Eye On It Songfacts reports that Eye On It, TobyMac's fifth full-length studio album was released on August 28, 2012. Said TobyMac regarding the album title: "I want my music to depict what I'm going through. I want to write about the things that upset me, move me, hurt me and haunt me. The things that are real. With Tonight, I was determined to live more passionately with God. I was laying down the gauntlet. Eye On It is a continuation of that. It's saying, 'This is the person I want to be and I'm going to keep my eye on it, God willing!'" TobyMac "Tonight" The ascension of TobyMac's solo career has been nothing short of spectacular. In an era of declining music sales he has consistently defied the odds and has seen his sales increase with each new album release. This is no small feat. With his fourth studio album TONIGHT released on Feb. 9, he is poised to take things higher yet again. Having climbed the mountain once with the group dcTalk (4 Grammys, more than 8 million albums sold), TobyMac knows how difficult the journey can be and how much work the process actually takes. Rarely does an artist get to soar to great heights for a second time, but soar he has. He took home his first Grammy as a solo artist last year after receiving Grammy nominations for each of his first four solo projects (Momentum, Welcome To Diverse City, Portable Sounds, Tonight).
