    Standing in the Shadows of MONA

    Standing in the Shadows of MONA is for the whole family – and you’ll want to sing along, a la The Sound of Music but with less nuns and goats and stuff, and more Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5, Joe Cocker, Martha and the Vandellas, and The Beatles.

    The Southern Gospel Choir trumpets joy in joining in, and celebrates community. Its roots draw from the musical history of slavery: exuberance in the face of oppression. Cut loose, cut sick, and kick back on the beanbags on the MONA lawns.

    Southern Gospel Choir, with:

    • The Very Righteous Gospel Band
    • Michael Spiby (the Badloves)
    • Brian Ritchie
    • Maria Lurighi
    • Andrew Legg
    • Dean Stevenson

    Come and enjoy a beautiful summer's afternoon on the lawns at MONA and be captivated by the energy and power of the Southern Gospel Choir as they sing the music that has painted the backdrop to our lives for nearly 50 years.
