Go Tell It On the Mountain: The Blind Boys of Alabama Christmas Show returns to the Walt Disney Concert Hall Monday, December 20, 2010 at 8:00 PM. The Blind Boys of Alabama, four-time Grammy-winning gospel legends and Gospel Music Hall of Fame inductees, bring their inspirational renditions of Christmas music both familiar ("Jingle Bells" and "Silent Night") and lesser known ("When Jesus Was Born" and "I Pray on Christmas"), as well as gospel classics such as "Amazing Grace." The Los Angeles Times heralded their debut performance as "a heavenly Christmas gift."
Go Tell It On the Mountain: The Blind Boys of Alabama Christmas Show was inspired by the group's 2003 Grammy-winning album. The soulful Christmas album features guest appearances by Mavis Staples, Tom Waits, Chrissie Hynde, Solomon Burke, George Clinton, Aaron Neville and others. Upon its release, Go Tell It On the Mountain became an immediate Christmas classic which led to a PBS Christmas special and a concert DVD featuring many of the guests on the album. In the true spirit of the Christmas season, the album, broadcasts and DVD sales afforded The Blind Boys of Alabama an opportunity to give something to others in need. A portion of the proceeds is donated to the American Diabetes Association, for whom they became spokesmen in 2003.For more information and complete artist biographies, please visit: www.laphil.comWHO: The Blind Boys of AlabamaVideos
