Go Fish in Concert
Date: August 11
Time: 4:00 p.m.
Location: Wesley Hall
Dove-award winning Christian Children's music performers Go Fish will be in concert at Frazer's Wesley Hall on Saturday, August 11 at 4:00 p.m. The group strives to create music with solid scriptural content to help kids learn the Bible and have fun doing it. Parents may find themselves tapping their feet and singing along too, though, since the Go Fish mission statement is "to make great music for kids that won't drive parents bonkers"!
Go Fish created the Bible curriculum that will be used in this year's Frazer Vacation Bible School, so many Frazer children will already be familiar with their music and videos.
“Technology has come so far so fast, and people just want the latest and greatest hip new thing. But a lot of the ‘meat and potatoes’ get lost,” says Jason Folkmann, one of the Go Fish singers and dad to a toddler of his own. “Keeping in mind our audience, that kids are our focus and especially families with young kids, we wanted to pass foundational songs down to the next generation—songs that were important to us growing up.”
Tickets are available for $10 plus handling fees at iTickets.com or in the Frazer Bookstore ($12 at the door).
