There’s a magnetic power to gospel music, making it no surprise that it has influenced a wide range of different types of music.  The Kings Return, who will be performing at the Fox in December, are part of this tradition—singing music from a number of different genres while drawing deep inspiration from gospel.  Join this conversation—in person or on zoom— to discover more about the significant impact of gospel music, including here in Tucson.  Please register above.

In this Curious Conversation, Kevin & Tanishia Hamilton demonstrate how Gospel music has been the bedrock of American music. As founders of Southwest Soul Circuit, they’ve shared their love of singing with music icons like Roberta Flack, Patti LaBelle, and Lyle Lovett, to name a few. They’ve also stayed connected to the Southwest church community from Dallas to San Diego, and Kevin actively leads music as music director for two churches.  He has produced over a dozen albums and has continually been a community teacher and performer. Staying true to their gospel music roots through vocalizations, rhythms, and themes, Kevin & Tanishia express themselves in their particular brand of modern Soul Music.
