The new season premieres with 10-time GRAMMY-winning artist JOHN LEGEND at HARLEM's historic RIVERSIDE CHURCH: in NEW YORK, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7th at 9p (ET) on THIRTEEN; in LOS ANGELES on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9th at 6:30p (PT). on PBS SOCAL 2 and nationwide on public television this Fall (check local listings). The episode unites an artist and venue both dedicated to using their pulpit to convey a message of justice, hope and peace. The RIVERSIDE CHURCH was the site of MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.'s historic "Beyond VIETNAM: A Time To Break Silence" speech, and has been described as a "stronghold of activism and political debate" throughout its rich 75-year history.

"I grew up playing in the church, so when I come back to the church, I feel a sense of nostalgia and connection that is really at the core of who I am as an artist," LEGEND said. "Especially with this album, which I think draws from my gospel roots in a significant way, it means a lot to me to perform here."
