GROVE CITY, Pa. – Compassion International’s Songs of Hope Tour, featuring musicians Robbie Seay Band and Bethany Dillon, comes to Grove City College Nov. 6. The concert, hosted by Grove City College’s Stonebridge Concerts, is at 7:30 p.m. in Crawford Hall Auditorium.
The tour also includes the band Caleb, featuring Will and Caleb Chapman, sons of the musician Steven Curtis Chapman. Tickets will be sold Monday though Friday afternoons in the Breen Student Union until Nov. 5 or online at www.itickets.com. Advance tickets are $10 for Grove City College students and $12 for general admission. Tickets also will be sold at the door for $14. Doors open at 7 p.m.
Robbie Seay Band, based out of Houston, Texas, has built a name for being one of the smartest and most uncompromising new bands in Christian music. The band’s debut album, “Better Days,” earned the trio a solid college following with Seay’s enigmatic melodies and gritty vocals and his challenging perspective on justice, faith and hope. The band’s sophomore Sparrow Records release, “Give Yourself Away,” debuted in August 2007 and showcased music influenced by British alt-rock bands, such as Keane, and modern worship bands like David Crowder* Band.
An Ohio native, Dillon began her song-writing/singing career at 14. Now 21, she has just released her fourth album on Sparrow Records, titled “Stop and Listen.” The album is a collection of simply produced, acoustic pop songs.
Stonebridge Concerts is a Grove City College student group that brings Christian concerts to campus.
