Christian Songwriters' Showcase (moving to 3rd Saturday)

Our July Christian Songwriters' Showcase was the second held at the new venue, The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in Redlands. We were entertained by two performers with remarkably different styles and backgrounds: the beautiful, Latin-tinged, Catholic-inspired songs of Daniel Sanchez, from St. John Bosco Mission in Highland, and the soulful, rock-flavored music of Cameron Ruffin, worship guitarist for The Rock Church and World Outreach in San Bernardino. It was great to hear the music that God has inspired in people from two different backgrounds, coming together to worship and honor the Lord!

Beginning on August 15th, the Showcase will now be held on the third Saturday of each month, from 4:30 to 6:30 PM. The August lineup includes:

Justin Reid, our first "repeat" artist, who will present a whole new crop of songs for our enjoyment;

Daniel Medina, Jr., a Work B.e.n.c.h. member making his first appearance at the Showcase;

Jeremiah Johns from Lancaster, a quickly rising artist who recently opened for The Reign's 20-year reunion concert in Fullerton;

and Chris Ryan of Grand Terrace, who played the massive Cornerstone Festival in June 2009 and is riding a wave of popularity for his new album "Colors".
