(We like to call it secular go spel.)\nIn the group&rsquo\;s short history they have already made a big splash in the NYC music scene\, sharing the stage with New Orleans stal warts such as the Rebirth Brass Band\, Trombone Shorty\, Dirty Dozen Bra ss Band\, Bonerama\, Big Sam&rsquo\;s Funky Nation\, the New Orleans Kle zmer All-Stars and Eric Lindell. They&rsquo\;ve sold out legendary venue s such as the Highline Ballroom and BB King&rsquo\;s.\nThe Revolution be gan expanding into other regions in April 2009\, playing 13 shows in 12 days during Jazz Fest in New Or- leans. Since then the group has perform ed in 10 states and developed a strong presence in several markets up an d down the eastern seaboard. Many followers have attended recent Revival s in Vermont (Burlington Discover Jazz Festival\, Red Fox Inn)\, Boston (Harper&rsquo\;s Ferry)\, Long Island (Stephen Talkhouse\, Great South B ay Festival)\, Philadelphia\, Dewey Beach\, Winston-Salem\, Asheville (B ele Chere Festival)\, Atlanta (Smith&rsquo\;s Olde Bar)\, Birmingham and New Orleans (Blue Nile &\; Tipit- ina&rsquo\;s during VooDoo Fest).\ nEach BroJo tune has been meticulously arranged for the Love Revival Rev olution Orchestra: The three-piece horn section (the Shepherds of the Wi nd)\, the gospel choir (the Voices of Reason)\, and the most righteous r hythm section (the Guardians of the Groove) lay it down for Brother Josc ephus to sing about the pain\, joy and wisdom that is in his heart.\nThe core group is twelve pieces\, but the Revolution has been known to expa nd to over sixteen (adding members to the gos- pel choir\, fiddle\, mand olin and percussion) and plans are in the works to incorporate an entire orchestra to back up the 12- piece core. \;\nA Love Revival with Br other Joscephus is more than just excellent original live music. BroJo i s also all about the spectacle and pageantry &ndash\; it&rsquo\;s a life changing EXPERIENCE! The orchestra is decked out in their finest whites (accented with the appro- priate gold\, purple and green of Mardi Gras) . They break out parasols\, start each set with a parade through the aud ience and throw out hundreds of Mardi Gras beads over the course of a sh ow. When the parade starts grooving the crowd can't help but have a good time. It's undeniable!!\nBrother Joscephus' message is one of righteous ness: spread as much love as possible around\, regardless of your indivi dual beliefs\, race\, age\, gender\, sex\, sexual orientation or whateve r it is you're into. Long as you're not hurting anyone\, BroJo has much love for you and encourages you to fill the space with whatever love you got. That's what the Love Revival Revolution is all about.\n \; URL:http://lakeforest.patch.com/events/brother-joscephus-and-the-love-rev ival-revolution-orchestra-3e7c7017 SUMMARY:Brother Joscephus and the Love Revival Revolution Orchestra LOCATION:275 Parkway Dr\, Lincolnshire\, IL 60069: 275 Parkway Dr\, Linco lnshire\, IL END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
