 Throughout
the 2008 Holiday season, The Ball Brothers and pianist, Roy Webb
will unite to present more than a dozen Christmas concert
events. The 15-city tour kicks off November 20 in Centralia, MO,
and will conclude on December 21 in Del City, OK. Tour stops
throughout the month-long event include such cities as Fremont,
MI, Jerseyville, IL, Evans, GA, York, SC, Chambersburg, PA,
Baltimore, MD, Benton, AR, and Mt Pulaski, IL, as well as
Chickamauga, GA, hometown of The Ball Brothers.
Southern Gospel Music lovers were first introduced to the The
Ball Brothers during the summer of 2006 when the brothers toured
throughout the country with Ernie Haase & Signature Sound.
During the Tour, the Brothers had the opportunity to become
friends with Roy Webb, who served as pianist for Signature
Sound. Throughout the next month, The Ball Brothers are looking
forward to once again sharing the stage with Webb to create a
dynamic combination that truly captures the joy of the Christmas
season. “Fans attending this Christmas event can expect the
unexpected,” Daniel Ball says with a big smile. “We have learned
20 new and classic Christmas songs and have spiced them up with
our own unique arrangements. We’ve been working on this
recording and planning this Tour for a year now, and we can’t
believe it’s finally here.”
Both The Ball Brothers and Webb are releasing Christmas
recordings just in time for the Holiday season, and are excited
to have the opportunity to showcase those songs during this
Tour. “Christmas is such an exciting time,” Webb states. “I
can’t wait to visit these cities with The Ball Brothers. I’m
sure we’re seeing the makings of what will become annual events
for some years to come.”
Each Christmas Tour stop promises to offer something for the
entire family. “Christmas time for us growing up was something
very special in our family,” Andrew Ball remembers. “We would
listen to Christmas music passed down through the generations.
We loved all the different musical styles that came to life
during the Holiday season. That musical diversity is what we
want to bring to the Christmas Tour. We’ll cover many styles and
end up at the place where our family always was on Christmas
morning: remembering the Birth of our Savior and the reason for
the celebration.”
