Eva Kroon Pike at Winter Jam with Lecrae and Newsboys!
Singer/songwriter Eva Kroon Pike will make her debut Saturday at the Winter Jam 2014 Tour Spectacular when the world's largest annual tour comes to Atlanta's Georgia Dome. Pike will share the event's lineup with Christian music heavyweights Newsboys, Lecrae, Plumb, Tenth Avenue North, Newsong and others. Nick Hall will speak and David Crowder will be a special guest. Pike is being featured as the tour's "New Artist" on the Atlanta stage.
"I'm almost speechless at the honor of being a part of Winter Jam," Pike says. "I am completely overwhelmed at this God-sized opportunity and I am grateful to share the stage with some of Christian music's top acts and to participate in the ministry of this amazing tour. It's all such a blessing to me!"
Pike is currently promoting her EP, Love Is All About You, produced by six-time Dove Award winner Don Koch (producer for Avalon, 4HIM, and many others; songwriter credits include classics "In Christ Alone," "Adonai" and "Mercy Said No"). Her current single and music video, "Grace That Chose Me," has been featured at various events, including the Florida Baptist Convention. Pike, who has experienced firsthand the blessings of being adopted into a loving Christian home, is an outspoken advocate for adoption. She has partnered with the Florida Baptist Children's Home, a Christ-centered organization that provides services for abused, neglected, and orphaned children, where she helps to promote the organization's adoption and other ministry services to hurting children and families.
Since its formation by NewSong in 1995 with a single concert in Greenville, S.C., the Winter Jam Tour Spectacular has featured many of the top names in Christian music, including TobyMac, Third Day, Newsboys, Steven Curtis Chapman, Skillet, and more. The tour has outpaced any other tour's attendance for the past three years (according to Pollstar, 1st Qtr.). The 2014 tour will stop in 48 cities.
When NewSong began the Winter Jam, it was based on the idea of removing cost barriers, so more people could attend, be encouraged by the music, and hear the Gospel. Years later, those are still the foundations of Winter Jam, with all dates costing $10 at the door.
