I should have caught this quite awhile back when SonFest was at my alma mater. A couple of the performers at the concert in the spring were Pocket Full of Rocks and Jeremy Camp. They were able to snag some exclusive interviews with both of them and now have them available on their website as a downloadable podcast.

Julie, another MVNU student shares her review of the concert: Well I didn’t watch all of SonFest but the bands I did see were amazing! Especially Jeremy Camp. His performance turned into a worship service, you can tell he is so passionate about what he does. Yes I am a naz student I’ve been here 2004 and would say that this was easily the best SonFest yet! Even though it rained a little we still had a good time jammin to Grits. Haha. The only bands I saw were Grits, Skillet, & Jeremy Camp though. Hope that helps you. Thanks Julie for sharing your experienceRead More →

I didn’t end up getting to go to the SonFest concert at Mount Vernon Nazarene University as I had planned. My son’s first flag football game was Saturday, a carnival at his school, and I was able to help a member of our small group move their parents into a new apartment. My new plans, nor the rain, caused anyone to get their spirits doused over the weekend. The concert still went on as scheduled and it sounded like a number of people had a really good time. SonFest visitors prove to be faithful attendants Sound of faith: Christian rock no longer limited to churchRead More →
