In the early 1990s, Reverend Vince Anderson dropped out of Union Theological Seminary, where he was studying to be a Methodist minister, because he wanted to pursue a career in music. Over the next few years, he and his Love Choir filled hipster hang outs like Black Betty and Union Pool in Williamsburg, while he led a church choir and studied to get ordained. He’s now happily pastoring and playing his unique brand of “rockin’ gospel,” bellowing out songs about Jesus and Job in a style that can elicit Motown, soul, jazz and a sermon at the same time. This Saturday night, Reverend Vince and his music will fill Sunnyside Reformed Church, where the audience will be clapping their hands and grooving in their seats.

Details: Vince Anderson & Friends, Sunnyside Reformed Church, 48-03 Skillman Avenue, Sunnyside, March 22nd, 7 pm, free, but donations accepted.
