The show keeps going here at the Vanguard University Music Department! One of Vanguard’s music ensembles completed a summer tour through California, Oregon, and Washington. The Vanguard Singers and Band toured for eight days throughout the Pacific Northwest to close out the 2015/16 school year.
The Vanguard Singers and band are made up of singers and instrumentalists ranging across many of Vanguard’s academic majors. While it is a music performance group, the members of the group are also selected based on their desire to spread the gospel and further the mission of Vanguard. The diversity of majors and personalities makes the group a very unique thing to be a part of–especially on tours.

Concerts were held at several schools and churches throughout the Northwest beginning at Liberty Church of the Nazarene (the church one our newest music alumni Janelle Harriman). Other locations included Kingsway Christian School, Three Rivers Christian School, First Baptist Grass Valley, and First Assembly of God Victorville. The tour spanned over 2,500 miles and eight days.
As summer continues, the groups remains dominant until the fall when it will begin touring Southern California again performing concerts for churches and schools. The group will continually perform throughout the 2016/17 school year so stay tuned for upcoming concert locations!
