E-town College concert to raise funds for students’ financial emergencies
ELIZABETHTOWN,
Pa. – A concert at Elizabethtown College to raise funds for college
students who encounter financial emergencies will feature the group
Ingram Hill and a number of Elizabethtown student musicians. The FASE
Fund to Aid the Students of Elizabethtown concert is scheduled for 3
p.m., Feb. 27, in the Event Space of Brossman Commons. Tickets are $8
and will be sold at the door.
During 2004, Ingram Hill signed to Hollywood Records, released nationwide their CD "June's Picture Show" and went on tour, hitting the stage with everyone from Michelle Branch to Los Lonely Boys, Hanson to Johnny Lang. Their first single, "Will I Ever Make It Home," graced both the Billboard Adult Top 40 Singles chart and the Radio & Records Hot AC Chart, and enjoyed a successful ride on the soundtrack for "13 Going On 30," which hit #2 on the Billboard Soundtracks chart.
Building on this momentum, the band has just wrapped a tour with Gavin DeGraw and is now marking the release of their second single, "Almost Perfect," which hit radio on Feb. 1. The accompanying video will be seen in Target and Nordstrom stores nationwide. Fans can also look forward to seeing the pop/rock quartet on national television, starting with an appearance on CBS’s "Second Cup Café" scheduled for Feb. 26.
Formed in the summer of 2000, the quartet is Justin Moore vocals/guitar, Phil Bogard guitar, Shea Sowell bass/vocals and Matt Chambless drums. The band initially came together at the University of Memphis, where Moore and Chambless were attending on full scholarships.
Established in 1999, FASE is available to students attending Elizabethtown College or to those who live in the Elizabethtown community and attend another college or university. For more information about the FASE, contact Thomas Bowersox at 717-361-1310 or bowerstj@etown.edu.
