Guitarist Billy McLaughlin Next Faith & Life Speaker 11/17

Billy McLaughlin, internationally acclaimed guitarist and composer, will speak on "Faith & Music: Sounds of Transformation" on Thursday, November 17, 2011, at 7:00 p.m.at Hopkins High School Auditorium, 2400 Lindbergh Drive, Hopkins, MN 55305.

Like all Faith & Life events, this is free and open to the public. No registration or tickets are required.

McLaughlin's enormous acoustic guitar tone has carried him around the world, to Billboard's Top-Ten Chart, and most recently through a devastating medical disorder called focal dystonia. McLaughlin has had to re-learn the guitar left-handed and is in the early stages of what has been described as "one of the great musical-comeback stories of all time." His story is the subject of an award-winning documentary film called Changing Keys: Billy McLaughlin and the Mysteries of Dystonia.
