These ladies have found a way to gift-wrap their Mississippi roots & Louisiana spunk and share it with listeners around the world. They arrive in Van Wert at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, June 17, to share their southern country musical charm with an eager Van Wert Live audience.

Witness the evolution of this band who went from singing together as children in Hart’s Chapel, to a world-class group whose colorful and contagious energy has flourished into a full live band experience that fills venues at home and around the country. Chapel Hart has an amazing ability to tug on your heartstrings with a tender yet powerful ballad, then have you pumping your fist in unison to the pulse of hard-hitting rock and roll. The band accentuates the three vocalists, who embody the sweet and southern sound of country with soulful undertones noting their gospel roots.
