About the event
According to Paul Shugrue, host of 89.5 WHRV’s “Out of the Box,” Uphill is “a smokin’ blues band!” The band’s debut CD was named one of the 10 best blues albums of 2009, and their live performances, Shugrue says, have consistently provided audiences “with an amazing time.”
Calling their style “Carolina swampland blues,” the band includes keyboardist and vocalist Chris Palestrant—who also happens to be a professional singer in the Virginia Symphony Orchestra Chorus under the direction of SPC Music Director Robert Shoup.
If weather or heat prohibit being outdoors, the event will take place in the sanctuary.
