Gospel wonderland

For more than 60 years, the Blind Boys of Alabama have flown the flag of soul-drenched gospel. Today, founding members Clarence Fountain and Jimmy Carter carry on their rich heritage, backed by the talented Bishop Billy Bowers and an awesome band. The group’s Go Tell It on the Mountain Christmas tour started on November 29 and includes a special stop at the Crest Theatre, located at 1013 K Street, this Tuesday. Fans of traditional gospel and old soul will rejoice when Sacramento plays host to one of the greatest talents in the genre. Tickets are $45 and the show starts promptly at 7:30 p.m. All ages are welcome. This is one Christmas gift you won’t soon forget.
