30 January 2017 – Franklin, Tenn – Essential Worship’s Vertical Church Band and Premier Productions have partnered and are proud to announce the upcoming dates for their Vertical Nights Tour. Kicking off March 8 in South Bend, Indiana, the tour is scheduled to hit 14 markets across the U.S. Tickets are on sale now by visiting here.

At each tour stop, concertgoers will get to enjoy a message from Pastor James MacDonald of Harvest Bible Chapel, along with music from Vertical Church Band and special guest and worship artist/songwriter Paul Baloche. Other special guests scheduled to appear on various dates throughout the tour are Meredith Andrews, Jason Ingram of one sonic society, and more. The official tour dates are listed below. Also be sure to watch the video posted below to find out more.

Along with the music and message, what also makes this tour unique is that at each stop a Worship Workshop will be offered. The workshop will encompass multiple afternoon seminars and is designed to help worship leaders grow in serving their local churches with instruction on servant leadership, mentorship, servant-heart worship leading, a band workshop about instrumentation, arrangements, song selections for their worship team, and a conversational Q&A session with the members of Vertical Church Band. The Worship Workshop will be facilitated by Baloche and select members of the Vertical Church Band, and Andrews and Ingram will also participate at select dates.

“Leading a night of worship and the word, while also getting to minister to worship leaders with our workshops, is the center of what Vertical Church Band is all about,” shares Andi Rozier, Pastor of Worship at Harvest Bible Chapel. “We cannot wait to get on the road and visit these amazing cities and meet some amazing people along the way.”
