“An album about isolation and redemption that transcended ‘world music’ to become the whole world’s soundtrack” Rolling Stone
It’s the meaning of the words that counts and Paul Simon’s “Graceland” – acclaimed as one of the most iconic records in rock and roll history on its release in 1986 – is a perfect fit with its uplifting lyrics and South African rhythms and melodies. In the wake of Graceland’s 30th anniversary, Camden’s Jazz Café commissioned the London African Gospel Choir to perform the album in its entirety for one night only. Tickets sold out within hours and so five more nights were added and they all sold out as well, confirming the enduring appeal of Paul Simon’s masterpiece, and also the growing excitement generated by the Choir’s string of notable stage and television appearances.
Over the years the choir has performed on stage and television with stars like Emile Sande, Mumford & Sons, Tom Jones and the Soweto Gospel Choir, with whom they made a triumphant appearance at London’s 02 Arena, singing in front of 17,000 people. Annie Lennox also invited them to perform at a number of prestigious events, including the MIT Awards and the choir has worked with actor/director Idris Elba, star of “Mandela: Long Road To Freedom” who recruited them for an album celebrating South African music, recorded in tribute to Nelson Mandela.
