	Shaun Groves and Ginny Owens In Concert 12th January 2008 Belfast	779 days ago
	atiG presents Shaun Groves and Ginny Owens Live at Whitewell Metropolitan Tabernacle on Saturday 12th January at 8pm. Ticket Price: TBA Shaun Groves Shaun Groves defies typical expectations and simple labels. He is an insightful songwriter, one who displays such incredible lyrical prowess that his musical peers nominated him for Songwriter of the Year solely on the strength of his 2001 debut. He's also a solid on-stage performer as the lanky Texas native can hold his own whether standing solo before a college crowd or fronting his band at a youth event or festival. And to listen to Shaun Groves' music showcases a complete and talented artist in full bloom, constantly reaching for excellence. However, none of these positions—songwriter, performer, artist—totally grasp the significance of the man or what he hopes to convey to audiences everywhere. More than a musician, Shaun Groves is a communicator, a man full of messages and ideas that he hopes to translate through a variety of media. A writer, teacher, preacher, father, husband … and yes, most definitely a songwriter, performer and musician, Groves encapsulates everything that one would hope an artist could be. His songs reflect the bare-bones honesty of a searching, passionate faith. Unafraid of the questions or of stepping on toes, Groves sets his sights as high as possible, aiming to pursue profound theological truths in the most accessible lyrical metaphors he can create. Ginny Owens Ginny Owens is a Contemporary Christian music singer/songwriter. She was born in Jackson, Mississippi, and has been totally blind since the age of two. When she graduated from Belmont University with a degree in Music Education, she found that most people were skeptical about hiring a blind music teacher. Instead she concentrated in singing and songwriting and began making CDs, and has been producing them since 1999 with Rocketown Records, a label under Michael W. Smith. Her music has been featured on television shows, such as Roswell and Felicity. Ginny has also received three Dove awards, including New Artist of the Year. In January 2005, Ginny Owens started a non-profit organization called the Fingerprint Initiative. The organization has worked in conjunction with other groups, such as Compassion International, The International Justice Mission, and Habitat for Humanity. Ginny Owens has been featured on CNN to talk about the organization and their efforts to help rebuild New Orleans, following Hurricane Katrina
