San Rafael, CA (PRWEB) February 26, 2015
The Prince of Kosher Gospel returns to the Osher Marin JCC for a high-energy captivating performance.
Joshua Nelson brings his extraordinary message of hope, unity and spirituality through kosher gospel; a marriage of Jewish religious lyrics and meanings, with the soulful sounds of American gospel music.
When Joshua was eight he discovered an album by Mahalia Jackson, the Queen of Gospel, in his grandparents record collection, and he fell in love with her singing. During his teens and early twenties, he became widely celebrated as a gospel singer continuing Jacksons legacy.
For his audiences, whatever their faith or heritage, kosher gospel has been a revelation. Now in his early thirties, Nelson has performed around the world, for Presidents, major music festivalsand for Oprah, who named him a Next Big Thing. He has produced a stellar album, Mi Chamocha, sung with stars from Aretha Franklin to the Klezmatics, and has served as the subject of the acclaimed documentary film Keep on Walking.
Whatever the venue, Joshua Nelson, the Prince of Kosher Gospel, brings peopleand culturestogether in joyous song. A great uplifting performance for all audiences, whatever their age, faith or heritage.
"Cultural traditions typically change slowly, over the long arc of history. But occasionally a folk cultural innovation emerges that is startlingly fresh in its outward manifestation, although it remains deeplyeven reverentlytraditional at its core. You may have never heard of kosher gospel music before, but the inspirational performances of Joshua Nelson, the creator of this style, will surely call out to your soul."
