Celebrating their ten-year anniversary as a band, the acoustic tour, which is sponsored by World Vision, promises to be an intimate experience where concertgoers will take a journey through the band’s history and hear numerous stories behind many of their biggest songs such as “The Words I Would Say,” “Come to The Table,” “Live Like That” and more. Ticketholders will also be the first to hear new music from the band. Dove Award-winning Sidewalk Prophets are a band who strives diligently for excellence in all things. Formed on the campus of Anderson University and built around vocal powerhouse and pop culture nerd Dave Frey, the band has sold over 500,000 albums and 1.5 million digital singles, played over 2,000 shows translating to being in front of 2.5 million fans, and garnered five number one singles and eight top-five radio hits, such as their latest hit, “Come to The Table.” The band has received over 11 million YouTube views and been nominated for a Billboard Music Award as well as four Dove Awards, winning one. Sidewalk Prophets are a band known for spending the majority of their time on the road where they are passionate about connecting with their audience on a personal level. Dave Frey, lead vocalist for Sidewalk Prophets, shares the band's excitement about the upcoming tour, “In our experience the best tours have always been the acoustic ones and I can tell you right now that this one is going to be super special! When you take away all the bells and whistles from a big production show, what remains are the essentials: music, stories and friendship. Those are some of the best things in life, and we can’t wait to share them with the audience on this tour. Oh yeah, and we’re playing our first new music in four years—that will be great, too!” Tickets range from $15 to $65 and offer various options, such as the Early Entry Devotional with the band as well as a VIP After Party, which includes hang time with the band and a special photo opportunity.
