Sold-out concerts

Wesley Chapel was the site of two contemporary Christian music concerts in the fall of 2004. On October 30 the acoustic-pop band FFH (Far from Home) played to a full house of over 1,200, and, less than two weeks later, Houghton was a stop on Jeremy Camp’s Restored tour, which included the band Building 429 as an opening act. That concert was also sold out.

 

The Family Life Network—a series of Christian radio stations with headquarters in Bath, NY—sponsored the FFH concert. The group has recorded ten CDs and has had some of the highest-ranking singles on the Christian charts, including “One of These Days” and “Good to be Free.”

 

Camp’s first CD, Stay, had four number-one singles and another CD, Carried Me: The Worship Project debuted at number one on the contemporary Christian charts when it was released last February. “Take You Back,” the first single from Restored, is quickly climbing the charts.
