Rebecca St James headlines heads to Europe

|PIC1|Centrepiece of the schedule was her appearance on Thursday on the mainstage of the Flevo Festival –one of Europe’s largest outdoor Christian events, hosted annually in the Netherlands.

This year’s festival is being staged at the Bussloo Gelderland recreation area near Apeldoorn. More than 10,000 concert-goers are expected to rock away the 72 hours of continuous music with more than 60 international Christian bands and solo artists.

Headliners joining Rebecca on the Flevo main stage include Newsboys, Thousand Foot Krutch, Family Force 5, Fee and Parachute Band.

Following Flevo, Rebecca will make return concert stops for several European events before returning to the US next week ahead of a new book release, Loved, reaching retail in September from Hachette/Faithwords publishers.

She has just wrapped location work on her latest film project, Rising Stars, in which she plays the role of a harried celebrity ‘personal assistant’—complete with demanding clients, deadline headaches and fashionable glasses. “With my glasses on in the film, I’m told I bear an uncanny resemblance to Tina Fey,” Rebecca joked in a recent Twitter transmission to her universe of followers.

Rebecca’s first starring role in film, Sarah's Choice, will reach audiences in the US this autumn when the movie releases on November 21st.
