CARBONDALE -- Mark Hill, a former resident of Olive Branch, Ill., will be stage when contemporary Christian music star Steven Curtis Chapman performs Tuesday at the SIU Arena.
Hill, who now lives in Nashville, plays bass in Chapman's band.
A 1984 graduate of Egyptian High School, Hill played in a family gospel group called the Galatians beginning at age 11, and later with the Gary Jones Band and Terry Mike Jeffries locally.
He is the son of Ken and Deanna Hill of Olive Branch.
