Eddie Kross, with special guest End of I

Lansing songwriter and recording artist Eddie Kross will wrap up his four-state tour promoting his debut solo EP, “Reborn,” Saturday evening at Christ’s Kingdom Builders Church. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and Christian hard-rock band End of I will kick off the show at 7 p.m. 

Kross, formerly of the bands Oracle, Prisoners of Conscience and Dead Man Rising, describes himself as a heavy-metal guitarist with “a flair for the nostalgic, a unique voice and a heart for God.” Since its release in December, his “Reborn” EP has seen radio play on both Christian and secular internet stations. His performance Saturday will feature a full band.  

End of I is known for fusing heavy guitar riffs and lyrics of faith and redemption, drawing influences from bands like Breaking Benjamin, Red and Skillet. The band has made a name for itself in the Christian rock scene and has performed at events such as Kingdom Come Fest in Indiana and Soberfest in Flint. 

Saturday’s free, all-ages show will also offer refreshments, door prizes and giveaways. For more information on the performers, visit eddiekross.com and endofimusic.com. 

“Come out and be yourself at this night of heavy music and fun! Bikers and other misfits welcome,” Kross said.
