Hillary McBride and Country Music


Hillary McBride will be performing at the Howe Town Square Park as a part of the Howe Community Association's Summer Concert Series. The concert will take place at 700pm on Saturday July 7, 2007. The concert's sponsor is Wana Waves of Shipshewana.
Hillary is a solo artist with a passion and determination to sing for the Lord. Hillary says, "I'm okay with wherever he needs me to Worship."
Hillary was born in Florida in 1986, and moved to Indiana soon after with her four siblings. Her parents soon divorced and the trials and tribulations began. Her single mother with five children had marriages that never lasted. This proved to be a struggle for the whole family.
Hillary continues the story, "We moved to Colorado shortly after the divorce when our house burned down, to live with a man we knew little to nothing about. From then on, moving from location to location, from house to house, to many other men, we struggled to get by, and rarely attended school. Although the road we were on was jagged, full of dark alleys, and abusive men, my brothers and sisters and I managed to stand by one another as best we could. Music was my healing process, songs were my medicine, and they gave me a warm hope in my soul that I would have happiness and peace one day.
"Music began to grow on me at the age of five. I could never get enough. I have always known that God our Savior had a plan for my life even when I knew nothing of the Lord's great and unconditional love. I want to help and heal others through my testimony, my stories, my trials and tribulations through the songs I write and sing."
Hillary has been on the Nashville Star television program, done competitions, and performed in various places on various stages.
She is currently working with Brian Rhodes, who worked for Sony Records for several years, and is now working with other labels.
All Concerts are at 700pm in the Howe Town Square Park, State Road 120, Howe, Indiana. All questions should be referred to Dewey Miller at 260/562-2260, or howecommunity@yahoo.com
