About the event

The Local Show Presents: Andrew Peterson's The Far Country 20th Anniversary
The Local Show, a monthly concert series hosted by The Rabbit Room, presents a special concert with Andrew Peterson and a 20th Anniversary celebration of The Far Country, his fifth studio album. Released in 2005, this album invites us on yet another journey to someplace unexpected: The Far Country.

Meister Eckhart wrote, “God is at home. We are in the far country.” Peterson read the quote in a book by Annie Dillard years ago and scribbled it in his journal. “It expressed so simply the way I feel about life on this earth, and my heart resounded with the truth of it,” recalls Peterson. “I loved the way it turned my thinking on its end; we usually think of Heaven as the far country, a cloudy, ethereal place, an eternal church service, which sounds about as appealing as traffic school. C.S. Lewis said that all of our desires, for acceptance, intimacy, rest, work, satisfaction, beauty are, at their root, desires for heaven.”

Featuring a full band with Andy Gullahorn, Jill Phillips, Ben Shive, and more, we hope you’ll join us for this special Local Show celebration!
