Agape Blues Company’s Gospel and Blues Revue celebrates the confluence of early gospel with classic rhythm and blues, rock and roll, and blues music. Through story and song, I explain that historically, differences between the church’s music and what some call the "devil’s music" are very small.

Gospel artists have crossed over into classic rhythm and blues, and many secular artists have recorded gospel songs. I examine artists such as Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, and Jerry Garcia who worked to blur the lines defining these musical genres. I also reflect on the pioneers of early gospel music, and sprinkle in what we call Barrelhouse Hymns- classic Christian hymns arranged in a blues style. Join us for a celebration of music that moves body, spirit, and soul!
