On June 22nd THE BAND OF CHRISTIANS featuring TITUS CHAPMAN returns to the MCC. This was a sold out performance last year and had audience members in awe. Don’t miss the best of black gospel music!
Check out these photos from last year’s performance.
On June 23rd JACOB MOON & THE COMMISSIONAIRES also return to the MCC. The Commissionaires are a new soul-roots-gospel outfit formed by indie singer-songwriter Jacob Moon and Newworldson's Joel Parisien.
Jacob Moon has been recording and performing full time for the past 20 years, and has released 10 CDs as a solo artist. He has shared the stage with Gordon Lightfoot, Ron Sexsmith and this year he recorded a song that will appears on Rush's 2112 40th Anniversary Reissue. His music has taken him all over the world, and his heart for justice has led him to advocate on behalf of the oppressed.
Joel Parisien has written and recorded top ten Billboard hits for his previous band, Newworldson, who traveled the globe with their infectious soul gospel sound. He has also written for Michael Kaeshammer, Audio Adrenaline and many others over the course of his 20 year career.

One June 24th we will wrap up the festival with a fundraiser variety show hosted by the CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH CHOIR. The Midland based choir will be performing at Carnegie Hall in New York City later this year as part of a mass choir of 250-plus singers. The Sunday event will help raise money to help cover the cost of the trip.
