New Gospel Family makes the audience of Saint-André sing

On a Wednesday, the Saint-André church in Vierville-sur-Mer welcomed New Gospel Family for a concert combining traditional and urban gospel. Nearly 250 people had come to listen to the ten choristers.

Through rhythmic songs, the group discovered or rediscovered the history of gospel. The audience participated in the concert, taking up some choruses in turn. The newspaper highlights the quality of the voices and staging, as well as the warm welcome reserved for artists.

Created in 2001, New Gospel Family then had nearly 600 concerts, including four at the Zénith de Paris, and a notoriety beyond French borders. His repertoire combined American, French and African songs.

The evening ended with a piece that the article calls "Happy Days". Listened to in great recollection, this last interpretation was followed by an ovation.
