SAB Presents Sunday Evening B-Sides

Featuring: The Vespers

Larsen Student Union
The Vespers: Comprised of two sisters and two brothers, this Nashville based band puts on an energetic and worshipful show comprised of wailing harmonies, eleven different instruments, and well-crafted original songs. The four players entwine a multitude of genres like folk, Americana, newgrass, soul, and gospel. Though not a contemporary Christian band, The Vespers music is faith-based and an uplifting experience. Critics have hailed the band as “magnificently unforgettable, fresh and infectious”.
