Acoustic Manna is a collection of people with a widely varied musical background. We include a couple of musicians who have degrees in music and classical training, as well as a few who have a more contemporary musical background.
The group plays concerts of Matt Cimorelli’s and Bryan Welsh’s original compositions along with some of contemporary Christian music's most popular artists. Musical styles stretch from Celtic hymns, to Adult Contemporary style songs and rock, all performed with the distinctive sound of Acoustic Manna.
Acoustic Manna is a group of LTSP seminarians who together with their families and friends perform concerts of contemporary Christian music, and provide contemporary liturgical music at churches in the tri-state area.
