Veritas in Concert Loma Linda September 3rd

Acclaimed gospel-classical cross-over musicians, "VERITAS," are returning for a live concert at Loma Linda University Church on Saturday night, September 3rd. The five-member male vocal group is making their second appearance at the church, having previously been featured with five-time Grammy-winning soloist, Sandi Patty during her national farewell concert tour. Describing VERITAS at that time, Patty commended their classical style and sound to "hearing five Josh Gorbans at the same time." Their return to full concert reflects the enthusiastic acceptance received from concert-goers at the earlier event according to Dr. Bob Soderblom.  The group chose its name- Latin for "truth"- to reflect their spiritual and musical values, they've explained. Their powerhouse vocal style reminds fans of contemporary classical groups such as Il Volo, Il Divo, and others.  The five singers' official debut concert was in Albany, Georgia, in 2012. Members then and now are Jeff Anderson, first tenor; James Berran, baritone; Andrew Goodwin, second tenor; Jordan Johnson, first tenor; and Luca Scott Lawrence, bass. Their self-titled and first full-length album was released in 2014, and their most current recording is titled "Hope Survives".  The concert in Loma Linda is a musical capstone for the University Church congregation's month-long "camp meeting" tribute during August of each year. Services and special events at the church during that period are marked by more informal dress and music, and programs are reminiscent of a bygone camp-meeting era, according to the pastors. The September 3rd Veritas concert is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Advance tickets are on sale now either online on iTickets.com, or by telephone at (800) 965-9324. Ticket prices range from $10 to $50 and credit cards are accepted. The $50 "prime" tickets provide up-front seating. Tickets purchased from iTickets are subjected to a nominal service charge. There will not be any on-site ticket sales on the night of the concert.  Concertgoers to the church, at 11125 Campus Street in Loma Linda, will have access to free parking in a covered structure opposite the host church.
