2022 Rhode Island Fall Break Tour, *the* Plattsburgh State Gospel Choir* takes
a *Motown* turn this year in its annual *Soulful Christmas* program *Saturday,
December 3rd at 7:30p.m. at Spruce Peak Performance Arts in Stowe Vermont!*
 In addition to the traditional and urban gospel, contemporary
Christian, Caribbean
and Afrocentric music, the 50-voice choir will take on several Motown tunes
including the Temptations’ version of “*Rudolph the **Red Nosed Reindeer*,”
"*This Christmas*" and “*The Christmas Song*,” among other Soulful
Christmas classics.

Special guests include the phenomenal *Montreal Steppers*.  Founded in
2019, Montreal Steppers is a group that is committed to the art form of
step.  Stepping is a style of dance that uses the body as an instrument to
create rhythms, sounds, beats through stomps, claps, and chants.
Additionally, *T**he Voices of Faith (VOF)* of Plattsburgh, NY, is a
soulful quartet featuring African-American Spirituals of the south! The VOF
have performed locally in Plattsburgh, Lake Placid and Burlington, and as
far away as Memphis (TN), Little Rock and Stuttgart (AR), and Trinidad.
This concert will also feature some the best musicians in this area, lead
by *Jeff Wheel* (Lead Guitar), *Caleb Bronz* (Percussion), *Thomas
Carvey* (Bass
Guitar), *Jay Lesage* (Piano),* Tyler Mast* (Organ), *Marty McRea*
 (Trombone), *Ryan Ochs* (Saxophone) and *Cole Picard* (Trumpet). The *SUNY
Plattsburgh Praise Dancers* will grace the stage with a lovely hip-hop
dance that will get the audience clapping and chanting in.

*TICKETS:  $25 to $35; Children $10; Livestream $15*
