(Concert Review By: Priscilla Cassase)
Jesus Culture is a Christian Worship Band, with the lead singer Kim Walker-Smith. Like many other worship bands, they drag their music on for too long and are very repetitive. The members improvised too many of their songs; this is whats known as prophetic worship. It's a genre of Christian worship that allows the presence of God to come on everyone.
The main reason why the songs lyrics are very spontaneous and at times random, is because the artists will allow God to speak to them and they sing or speak what they believe God has put on their hearts, which may result in some songs going on for up to 10 minutes.
With that said, Jesus Culture does have capturing, heart warming music. Kim is a sincere singer and very talented artist, as are the other members of this band. There was a lot of variety in instrumentation and song selection. A few of their song choices were typical but again, repetitive and long; however, they did have a couple of very unique and different songs as well.
With all that in mind, I did love the concert; you could feel the Holy Spirit there. The atmosphere made you feel full of love; the stage lighting was not obnoxious, as I find to be the case at most concerts. The instruments did not overpower the singers' voice or burn a hole into your ear drums.
The audience was literally gobbled up in the music, with everyone worshiping in one accord as the Bible says we should be. The whole time I felt empowered.
As far as Christian bands go, they did a very good job. Overall it was not a waste of money; it was well worth it.
