"Legendary" is perhaps too mild a word to describe Phil Keaggy's body of work. One of the most admired musicians on the scene today, Keaggy's fans range from those who aspire just to be able to play his mistakes to professional guitarists who have been strongly influenced by his style. And in between are those who don't play guitar, yet find solace in his beautifully penned lyrics and memorable melodies. With more than 50 albums to his credit during his phenomenal 30-plus year career, Keaggy shows no signs of slowing down. He continues to sell out concerts all over the US with his ever-changing style, ranging from rock 'n' roll to fully orchestrated instrumental compositions. ChrisianityToday.com's Russ Breimeier comments that Keaggy is "one of CCM's most gifted musicians," and Robert Oermann of Music Row Magazine says of Keaggy and his music, "He remains one of our most impressive axemen." During the August 16th Innsbrook Afterhours show with Jonny Lang, Phil Keaggy is expected to perform a mixture of songs ranging from old favorites to tunes from his latest release JAMMED!, as well as his upcoming "looping" album Roundabout. He'll also give concert-goers an early taste of a forthcoming vocal project that is currently in production.

Jonny Lang, who began his career at 13 year of age, comments that, "I'm the happiest I've ever been, and I've just finished recording an album that I couldn't be happier with." At age 19, Lang has already celebrated two platinum-selling albums and a Grammy nomination. On his latest album, Long Time Coming, which is his third release, he not only wrote or co-wrote all but one of the album's tracks, but also served as its co-producer.
