Multi-Grammy Award winning recording artist Bill Gaither and Christian events producer Premier Productions have announced plans to bring "The Brighter The Light Tour" Christmas tour to seven cities in December. One of those stops will be at the Giant Center in Hershey on Thursday, Dec. 1, at 7 p.m.

For more than 25 years, Gaither has been bringing Christmas concert events each holiday season to cities nationwide, and many of those events have been promoted by Premier Productions. This year's celebration will include Gaither's own multi-award winning group, The Gaither Vocal Band.

During "The Brighter The Light Tour," the Gospel Music Hall of Fame members will ring in the holidays with joyful harmonies and signature stylings.

The Gaither Vocal Band, featuring Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith, will be joined on this season's Christmas tour by several musical guests. Throughout the evening, the performers will share gospel classics, as well as new favorites, in addition to classic Christmas standards.

Taking the stage with Gaither and The Gaither Vocal Band will be singer/songwriter/speaker and Vocal Band alumnus Mark Lowry, Gospel Music Hall of Fame members The Nelons, female vocalists Angie Primm and Ladye Love Smith and male vocalist Gene McDonald. Gaither's musical entourage, which includes Kevin Williams, Matthew Holt and Michael Rowsey, will also be featured.
