Gospel Summit – Southern Avenue & Mike Farris

GOSPEL SUMMIT

Gospel Summit with Southern Avenue & Mike Farris

Mike Farris has a “supersized voice filled with the electricity of Saturday night and the godly grace of Sunday mornings.”Rolling Stone Country 

“Southern Avenue is jaw-dropping. They are not to be missed.” — Jambase.com

Mike Farris and Southern Avenue come together for a soul-deep Sunday morning Gospel Hour celebrating the shared roots of blues, gospel, and Southern soul.

A Grammy-winning vocalist known for his raw power and emotional depth, Mike Farris channels decades of Southern rock, R&B, and Muscle Shoals–inspired soul into performances that are both moving and electrifying. He’s joined by Southern Avenue, the Grammy-nominated, Blues Music Award–winning Memphis family band whose soaring harmonies, driving grooves, and message-driven songs radiate connection and joy.

Together, these artists draw from the rich traditions that link blues, gospel, and soul—creating an uplifting, communal experience that invites everyone in.
