Multi Muddy Award winning vocalist Rae Gordon has long been a fixture in the music scene, not only for playing a gritty and soulful brand of blues with her band, but heading up a long standing gospel show with some of the best musical talent in the area. The gospel show has moved a few times as clubs have come and go, from Hoppers to Beale Street NW and now to Trails End Saloon in Oregon City. But what has remained the same is the welcoming come as you are atmosphere found when you bring people of different faiths and backgrounds to a common ground, good music and the friendly local bar.
Now in its 5th year at its current location, the 1st Sunday Gospel show highlights the talents of Rae Gordon, along with multi instrumentalist and Musical Director Ken Brewer on keys and guitar, Jim Solberg on bass and Scott Van Dusen on drums. Various guests and players over the last 5 years have included LaRhonda Steele, Allan Kalik, Joe McMarthy, Garry Meziere, Timothy James, Melissa Buchanan, Brian Foxworth, Marty Henninger and others.
On January 29th in celebration of anniversary, 1st Sunday will be hosting a live recording and you are invited to be a part of it. It will feature the regular gospel band, along with some guests and will highlight some of your favorite songs and some originals.
Your ticket price will go towards making the CD happen. In addition, to help with recording costs, CDs can be pre-purchased for $10 at the event, or $15 later when they are finished.
