Ginny Owens Concert
I'm passing on this info I got about a cool concert coming up:
Ginny Owens will be performing at the Chapel Hill Bible Church on Sunday,
February 20th at 7pm. Ginny is a wonderful songwriter and a soulful
performer, and she also has a compelling story. Despite being blind since
the age of two, she is considered one of the best musicians in Nashville
(that's saying something!). She was selected to perform on the Lilith Fair
tour, one of the few Christian acts to do so.
This show is part of the coffee house concert series at the Bible Church,
which means the auditorium will be modified to create an intimate atmosphere
conducive to listening to a great performer. Coffee and light refreshments
will be served.
Tickets are $7 in advance or $10 at the door, and are available at Family
Christian Stores and Lifeway Christian Stores in Raleigh, Durham, and Cary.
Or you can purchase them online at
http://www.itickets.com/events/100620.html, or by calling 800 965-9324. All
tickets are general admission.
For directions, go to http://www.biblechurch.org/about/directions.html. If
you have any questions, please call (877) 754-7425.
ALSO coming soon, look for more information on the first annual Carolina
Hope Festival, a diverse group of artists and musicians responsding to the
challenge of AIDS in Africa, featuring Jars of Clay, Derek Webb, Sandra
McCracken, and many more. This outdoor event will be held at the American
Tobacco Amphitheater in Durham, NC on April 16th.

I read an interview with her a few months ago, and she seems like a really interesting person. She spoke of times when she'd be on tour, and she'd go out with other artists who would describe things for her (the stars at night, etc.)
She raised an interesting issue, though:While on tour with Christian bands, she'd overhear guys saying that particular women were "hot", and it made her wonder, "What do they think about me?" "What are these standards of beauty?" It was convicting to read. I think she wrote a song about the subject which is on her latest album, though I forgot what it's called.
