This is a reimagination of the Christmas season. These songs have been with us our whole lives and this project allows the songs to take on a completely new meaning in a world that is hungry and desperate for hope, comfort and joy says Garr.
The usual buzz and excitement of Christmas is missing this year as families grapple with the prospect of not being able to gather during the Yuletide season. Many have lost loved ones and jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic; businesses are struggling to remain afloat and churches have been forced to deliver virtual services. Its been a difficult year all round and tonight, hosts Jamie Haith - Vicar of Midtown London Church with the support of the Bishop of London Sarah Mullally and the Archdeacon of Hampstead John Hawkins, hope to bring joy and comfort to every home.
London based singer/songwriter Junior Garr formed The Spirituals choir in October 2020.Their premier event, the televised Black History Project was a tremendous success, with over 23,000 YouTube views to date. Garr, who is an alumni of Bethels Ministry school in California, wishes to see humanity unified with one sound and one voice. His expression of music is a multicultural showcase of gospel sounds and hope-filled lyrics which translate into every song that he reimagines.
A carol will be revealed at 7pm every Tuesday over the next 4 weeks .The first of the four reimagined Christmas carols will premiere tonight.
