Aaron Strumpel, Todd & Angie Fadel, Todd BergerI just got back from a trip to Grand Rapids, MI where I played with Aaron Strumpel (Woodland Park, CO) and Todd and Angie Fadel (Portland, OR) at Calvin College’s Festival of Faith and Music. My friend, Aaron Strumpel, won the bandspotting competition that my other friend, Ryan Lott, won last time around. I caught a landmark Lupe Fiasco interview by Cornel West. Not only were the sessions thought provoking, inspiring, and challenging, but we also got to hear some fresh new music from thinking artists allowing life’s challenges to influence their faith and art. Saturday night we opened for Julie Lee and the Berger’s long time fav, Over the Rhine. The following morning we joined the worship team for Palm Sunday at a local Vineyard in Grand Rapids to worship with a beautiful group of believers.
