Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Doobie Brothers With a backbone of Southern rock and country, passionate Van Zant vocals, and trademark layered guitars, God & Guns manages to maintain the iconic Skynyrd punch while sounding completely contemporary. Sure to attract attention in these politically divided times is the title track, which harbors a sense of menace and unwillingness to back down that hearkens back to Skynyrd’s earliest days. The band knows the song, and others like “That Ain’t My America,” will have their critics, but Medlocke says listeners should get beyond the title. Aug. 13, 7 p.m. Bards and Storytellers: A Celebration of Fanny Crosby Join us in celebrating the remarkable life and work of Fanny Crosby, a nineteenth century poet, lyricist, and advocate of social justice, blind since infancy. Well-known in her day, she is remembered today primarily because of the hymns she wrote, more than 9,000 of them, using scores of pseudonyms assigned by publishers so her name wouldn’t dominate the hymn books. Several of her hymns are still standards, including Blessed Assurance and To God Be the Glory. Long-time APH reader Mitzi Friedlander will narrate the program; our celebration also includes a choral performance (directed by former KSB music educator Dorothy Noland), a few solos, and a sing-along. For all ages. Admission is free, but space is limited. Aug. 13, 11 a.m.
