Christian music news: Rockers from Live, Everclear and Sixpence None the Richer heading to Morristown


Latest christian music:

It's a trip back to the alternative rock boom of the 1990s. . . with a lighter sound.

The lead singers from three of the '90s most popular groups -- Eddie Kowalczyk of Live ("I Alone"), Art Alexakis from Everclear ("Wonderful") and Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer ("Kiss Me") -- are teaming up for an acoustic performance on Saturday, Oct. 24, at the Community Theatre at Mayo Center for the Performing Arts in Morristown.

The show, titled "Open Wings, Broken Strings," starts at 8 p.m.

Tickets range from $27 to $57 and go on sale to the public on Friday, Aug. 14, at 9 a.m. online and 10 a.m. at the Community Theatre box office and by phone. (see info below)

This is a rare opportunity to hear stripped-down versions of great '90s rock songs.

As Kowalczyk explains: "As a songwriter and a singer in a successful rock band, I have had the good fortune of being surrounded by incredible musicians, lots of wonderful production on both record and onstage and plenty of volume!"

"But did you know that the story of your favorite songs often originates in a much different environment? Open Wings-Broken Strings is an opportunity for you to get to the heart of your favorite artists and their songs in a unique and compelling way. . ."

"Stripped down, intimate and acoustic, you'll hear the strings on the guitar vibrate and buzz, the vocal chords hum and pulsate as the songs you love come to life like you never knew they could," Kowalczyk added. "In this intimate environment, the rock star steps out from behind the layers of decibel and drama to greet you with the essence, the story, and the song. Quiet just might be the new loud."

Community Theatre box office: 100 South St., Morristown
