THE LONDON AFRICAN GOSPEL CHOIR

BACK TO LISTING

The LONDON AFRICAN GOSPEL CHOIR was co-founded by Crystal Hardwicke to help London's African community to promote the gospel, create a platform of excellence for African gospel singers and musicians, and popularise the African interpretations of gospel music.

The live repertoire on offer includes traditional and original songs from all regions in Africa in local languages and in English, but also incorporates interpretations of African American classics.

LONDON AFRICAN GOSPEL CHOIR's live shows range from 6 piece a cappella to a full blown 20 member band and choir. The dance choreography so much a part of the live show brings a unique and spectacular element to the performances.

Shows are adaptable to festivals, theatres, concert halls, corporate events, street events, weddings and funerals. The choir can also provide backing singers and musicians for third party recordings and performances.
