Hands of Hope to Present Grammy Award-Winner Lecrae in Concert this August
Tucson, AZ (PRWEB) June 30, 2015 -- Lecrae is quickly developing into one of the biggest music stories of the year. He has been noted everywhere from Rolling Stone and The New York Times to Billboard Magazine and Variety, among others. His transparency and honest lyrics about his own real life experiences are one of the many reasons why so many people are taking notice.
“We are very excited about this event! Lecrae is a phenomenal artist who brings an inspirational message that agrees with the hope that we share with our clients and community every day,” said Elisa Medina, Director of Programs at Hands of Hope. Tickets for the event can be purchased at: ticketmaster.com or the TCC box office at 520 837-4766.
When Lecrae released his seventh studio album, Anomaly, he made history. The album officially debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart, as well as several other Billboard charts including, Digital Album, Rap Album, Christian Album and Gospel Album.
For the first time in Billboard chart history, an artist occupied the No. 1 album spot on both the Gospel Albums and Billboard Top 200 list. It is also only the fifth album ever to be on both the Christian Albums chart and the Billboard 200.
He performed earlier this year for his second time on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, which was timed to the debut of his album, Anomaly. Lecrae has also performed at the BET Experience, co-hosted The Dove Awards, co-headlined Winter Jam and received a nomination for Best Impact Track at the most recent BET Hip Hop Awards.
“We believe that every person has value and is worthy of protection, dignity and honor,” Medina stressed, before adding, “Our desire is that people of all ages would come to the event, have a great time and leave knowing they are valuable and were created on purpose for a purpose!”
