JOYOUS CELEBRATION
Joyous Celebration - I Will Sing Praises (Live In Jo'burg)
Joyous Celebration is South Africa's largest and most successful Gospel choir. Led by musical director Mthunzi Namba and producer/conductor Lindelani Mkhize, they have released 12 albums in 12 years and are determined to release an album a year for as long as they can. The charismatic and energetic choir has blessed audiences across Southern Africa, with their opening shows selling out in the first week.
Joyous Celebration has given birth to some of South Africa's biggest musicians today, such as the late Wendy Mseleku, Margaret Motsage, Swazi Dlamini, Vicky Vilakazi, Benjamin Dube, Judith Sephuma, Jabu Hlongwane, among others. Producer Lindelani Mkhize has been hailed South Africa's number 1 gospel lyricist, and writes for numerous artists including Kabelo. Members of JC are selected at competitive nationwide auditions every 2 years. When the choir started, the mission was to "create a group that would uplift the nation and reflect South Africa's inspirational transition". 12 years later, they have won numerous awards from the prestigious KORA awards to the regional South African Music Awards.
They sing a wide range of gospel tracks from traditional hymns to contemporary christian music. Any one album will contain atleast 8 languages, with a dash of some celebratory praise and worship songs.

The past ten years have been a long and winding road. We have received tremendous support across the country and God’s Mercy and Grace over the years is the reason we are where we are today, TEN YEARS LATER.
The Joyous concept has always been enigmatic to a lot of people because of its format. We have been referred to as a Gospel group or Gospel Choir. We prefer to be referred to as a Gospel Project or a Gospel Concept. The reason being that, the crew changes at least every two years. The concept is basically created in such a way that performers are selected through an intense auditioning process, after which they attend music workshops. During these workshops they learn skills such as songwriting to performance. We then rehearse a repertoire for about two months. After that the crew is on the road for the whole year. Performers always sign a 1 year contract to be in the Project, although there will be some performers that will be with Joyous celebration for more than a year.

Shower Power
Shower Power - Give
Shower Power - Cry
Today, this remarkable group's music Ministry grows stronger and stronger. They sing in churches and perform concerts outside church settings in order to reach as wide an audience as possible. Their songs are featured regularly on Zimbabwe radio alongside other popular, secular music.
But, what kept them going when so many others would have given up?
Director Mandikudza Sithole has no doubts. The group is wholly dependant on Jesus Christ. They are an instrument in His hands and He will continue to play the tunes He wants from the group regardless of the individuals in it.
Their aim is to cover the whole in song, inspired by One of Christ's last instructions to his disciples In Acts Chapter 1 vs 8:
Shower Power - He Is The Lord (Remix)
Shower Power - Love So Amazing
Shower Power - I'm Not Alone
Shower Power - Pray
Shower Power - Go Ye Therefore

Were It Not For Grace
Time measured out my days , Life carried me along .
In my soul I yearned to follow God But knew Id never be so strong .
I looked hard at this world To learn how heaven could be gained ,
Just to end where I began Where human effort is all in vain .
Were it not for grace I can tell you where I'd be.
Wandering down some mindless road to nowhere
With my salvation up to me ... I know how that would go
The battles I would face Forever running but losing the race..
Were it not for grace... So here is all my praise
Expressed with all my heart Offered to the Friend who took my place
And ran a course I could not start .
And when He saw in full , Just how much His love would cost .
He still went the final mile between me and heaven So I would not be lost .
