Breakout Christian artist Jamie MacDonald is dominating the 2026 season with K-LOVE, Dove, and CMB Award nominations. Following her Song of the Year win for “Desperate” and being named New Artist of the Year by the 2026 We Love Christian Music Awards, MacDonald has surpassed 150 million streams and earned a #3 Billboard debut. Driven by #1 hits “Desperate” and “Left It In The River,” MacDonald’s authentic storytelling has quickly established her as a premier voice in Christian music.
The Praise & Spirits™ Band is a diverse group of talented musicians using their God-given talents to build God’s Kingdom. The band is primarily featured at The Praise & Spirits™ community events, and its members include; Gary Clausing, Lori Hagenstein, Rob Anderson, Bonnie Neidinger, Scott Wyler, Rod Lisowski and Mark Paschke. All members are active in music ministry at area churches including St. Joseph Parish Grafton, Immanuel Lutheran Cedarburg, Stillwaters Church Jackson, and St. Peter Slinger.
Rise & Shine is more than a concert, it’s a community movement rooted in hope, worship, and unity. From 2022 to 2024, the event was held at Mequon Rotary Park, and in 2025 it found its new home at the beautiful FoxYard in Mequon.
Rise & Shine 2026 is a free event and no registration is required. We invite you to come and enjoy an uplifting evening of music, worship, and community.
Rise & Shine 2026 will feature a more casual layout. Guests are encouraged to bring their own chairs and enjoy the evening throughout the venue.
A 40’ x 100’ tent will be available for guests who prefer shaded seating, with additional areas to enjoy the summer atmosphere.
Select sponsorship levels include VIP seating and hospitality with access to VIP food and beverages.
Rise & Shine is made possible through the generosity of sponsors, donors, and volunteers. Every gift helps us continue bringing faith, music, and community together year after year.
