South Africa; We love you

The Stavanger Gospel Company at Cape of Good Hope, during the tour in South Africa this Easter.  

A total of 113 people in the group - including choir, family members, sound engineer and band -  have experienced this colourful country in the most amazing ways. We've been singing in a high security prison, had a 3000 audience concert in Soweto, had several church visits and unforgettable concerts in local churches both in Johannesburg and Cape Town. We've met people who have made an huge impact on our lives, that we will never forget. We are so humble and grateful for each and everyone who has supported us by either hosting people, coming to the concerts and services or being a part of the planning and logistics.  We want to especially thank our wonderful organizers and hosts Audrey Mbuyazi (Johannesburg) and Marc Roodenburg (Cape Town) for an amazing job planning the tour. We will never forget the fantastic people we've met during this tour. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 

SOUTH-AFRICA; HERE WE COME

During the last 8 years SGCompany has done several tours abroad: New York, London (3 times), Cameroon and Chicago. This year we are heading for the most beautiful country in the world: South-Africa. Our friend - the gospel artist Audrey Mbuyazi - and her team has done a great job preparing the tour on the South-Africa side. We're gonna do concerts together with Audrey at a wide specter of venues ranging from concert halls and churches to the big prison in Soweto... Our CD "It's Amazing" will be released during our tour. It has now been released in the US, UK, Scandinavian countries and now in the RSA. Our expectations are high, both when it comes to the fellowship, the musical performances and - last but not least - what the Lord is going to do.

Totland & Styve with sadface

Here's a picture we received from our dear friends Heine Totland and Gisle Børge Styve. They want to tell us that they miss the Stavanger Gospel Company. And we must say we are missing them too. Last week SGC had lots of fun with them. Great people, great musicians, big hearts! Thank you for 6 amazing concerts together! We really recommend the Christmas album Totland/Styve has done with the Salvation Army this year. It's packed with amazing perfomances by great Norwegians artists' from the last ten years, together with new songs recorded by Totland/Styve in Kenya. Check it out on record stores or your local Coop grocery store. All income from the record will go to the Salvation Army.

Joy to all the people!

Stavanger Gospel Company are looking back at two amazing evenings in Frøyland og Orstad kirke and St. Petri kirke, together with the entertaining and gifted duo Heine Totland & Gisle Børge Styve and their companion Per Willy Aaserud (trumpet). With a focus on joy, which is the profound message of Christmas, theese evenings were filled with laughter, great music and the important reminder about caring for others. Our hearts are filled with joy and gratitude. 

We are so grateful to SR-Bank for making theese concerts possible, and to all our partners for contributing to the activity in SGC throughout the year. We are humbled and honoured by the audience for filling every seat both evenings, and grateful for all the musicians contributing, excellent sound/light engineers, hosting and hospitality at the venues and every single person contributing in their own special way. 

Early in the 1900s a one word Christmas telegram was sent by the founder of the Salvation Army William Booth. The word was OTHERS. A new song with the same title is this years single on the annual Christmas album from the Salvation Army. Read more about it here

Press Read more to enjoy some beatiful pictures taken by Fotograf Kallen, thank you!

SGCompany in studio mode

SGC has been in studio recording for no less than four different albums the last month.
This includes two songs for our Christmas-EP featuring Heine Totland, two songs on The Norwegian Salvation Army's Christmas-album,
one song for the next album from the South African gospelartist Audrey Mbuyazi and one song on the coming album of the amazing gospelsingerCinque Cullar from Chicago.

We are really happy with the results, and are humbled by the oppurtunity to both release our own material, and also for the priviledge of singing together with such great artists.
