Greg Clifton, the wild-haired, ‘60s-stylin’ psychedelic Christian rocker and dedicated Sounds Great CD store employee, is performing with singer-songwriter Talesha Hogan at Friday night’s Relay For Life at Zephyrhills High School.
Clifton joined Hogan’s band a few months ago, but it will be just the pair of them performing Friday night – she on vocals, he on guitar. Relay For Life benefits the American Cancer Society; the event is free.
“’Amazing Grace’ is probably the only cover we’ll do,” Clifton said, adding that he will provide background vocals on some tunes.
Known for a bluesy, inspirational approach, Hogan recently began working with a producer and management team, and is recording a full-length CD in Miami.
She hopes to eventually tour to promote the album – and bring Clifton along.
The half-hour Relay For Life performance will be the duo’s latest in a series of gigs. They have played recently at the Florida State Fair, as well as events at Westfield Citrus Park and St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa.
“We’re going to put on a good show,” Clifton said. “And it’s for a good cause.”
