Tomorrow night we have the opportunity to introduce a band to Chicagoland for their first-ever concert here! Stars Go Dim will be playing at Adventure Church in Bradley, IL. Yeah, I know that calling Bradley "Chicagoland" may be a bit of a stretch, but hey, much of Illinois and Indiana are considered Chicagoland!
We're excited to bring these guys in for a lot of reasons. Of course, they make great music! If you haven't done so already, check them out at starsgodim.com. You can even download their album for FREE!
They are also very generous and compassionate guys. They told me that they like to support local organizations when they go through an area, so they will be visiting Children's Memorial Hospital in the city and playing music for the kids. What great hearts for ministry!
Some quick background: the band developed as a side project of a few guys from Pillar. And then it grew. And grew. They grabbed vocalist Chris Cleveland, who has AWESOME pipes, and shaped their unique sound. Chris and bassist Michael Wittig live in Tulsa, and Joey Avalos flies in from Phoenix. Lester Estelle does a lot of production and drumming, but doesn't travel with them.
We are looking forward to hangin' with them on Friday and we hope you'll join us! Tickets are $10 at the door. Come to Adventure Church, 235 N. Kinzie Ave, Bradley, IL.
