Brandon Lake, arguably the hottest name right now in contemporary Christian music, is bringing his big arena tour to Northern California.
Lake performs Nov. 15 at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento and Nov. 16 at SAP Center in San Jose. Tickets start at $40 in Sacramento and $50 in San Jose, tprlive.co. Showtime is 7 p.m.
Lake is a fantastic pop-rock singer-songwriter, who first came to prominence in the Christian music genre as a member of the Redding-based Bethel Music collective/organization. He also drew much attention working with Atlanta’s Maverick City Music group.
Lake’s solo career really took off with 2020’s “House of Miracles,” which included three Top 40 hits — “I Need a Ghost,” “Just Like Heaven” and the wonderful chart-topper “Gratitude.”
Since then, Lake has released three more full-length albums, the most recent of which being this year’s sensational “King of Hearts.” That new album, Lake’s fifth solo offering overall, features a pair of memorable No. 1 hits — “That’s Who I Praise” and “Hard Fought Hallelujah.”

Lake’s trophy case continues to grow more crowded as the years go by. Thus far, he’s scored five Grammys and more than a dozen Dove Awards.
We’re greatly looking forward to catching him in concert on this tour — especially so we can hear “Count ‘Em,” which is one of the best rock tunes released this decade.
Make sure to arrive to the concerts on time so that you can also see the opening acts — Franni Cash and Pat Barrett — both of whom have done excellent work in the contemporary Christian music realm.
