POLAND — Award-winning guitarist and songwriter Josh Snodgrass will be performing a concert at Oak Grove Baptist Church on Sunday, April 30 at 10:30 a.m. The service will feature a time of worship, instrumental renditions of popular Christian hymns and Snodgrass sharing his testimony.

In 2020, his music went viral on YouTube and his channel now has garnered nearly 40 million views. With more than 21 million hours of watch time on the platform, he’s become one of the world’s most listened-to solo guitarists.

“It’s been exciting to have my music enjoyed by so many people, especially during the difficulties of these past few years,” Snodgrass said. “My hope is that it can bring people joy and help them feel closer to God in the midst of a troubled world.”

Snodgrass originally learned to play guitar at the age of six from his father. After playing in church during his childhood years, he learned a rare technique, called hybrid picking, which allows Snodgrass to play the melody, bass line and chords all at the same time on an acoustic guitar.

He now tours as a soloist, and his guitar playing is frequently compared to Chet Atkins and Phil Keaggy.

Those interested may listen to Josh’s music on YouTube or at JoshSnodgrass.com.

Oak Grove Baptist Church is located at 11216 Oak Grove Church Rd., Poland. Admission is free.
