Josh Gracin gets the revival spirit as he shoots for the upcoming Billy Graham biography “Billy: The Early Years”

Country crooner Josh Gracin takes a break from his own hits to play the part of George Beverly Shea in “Billy: The Early Years“, a biographical film about the younger years of spiritual evangelist Billy Graham. George Beverly Shea was a grammy-winning singer who frequented Graham’s famed revivals. The film is shooting in Tennessee through mid-may.
