Bazil Meade MBE once said, our vision continues to be a blend of two passions, music and faith. This unique combination is expressed through our songs that touch the hearts and minds of millions of people. LCGC continue to illustrate their intentions in breaking boundaries, sharing hope and display true musical versatility, giving them the drive to grow form strength to strength.
Whilst performing concerts, corporate bookings, recording collaborations, media shows and traveling the world, LCGC are currently in the middle of recording songs for a new album. Having made a total of thirteen albums some released through major record labels, this new album promises to be the most defining to date. The yet untitled album is a message album with its narrative about peace, love and justice. A combination of covers and original songs paint a positive picture of hope and optimism during what is considered to be a time of global doom and gloom.
To say that excitement is buzzing right now in the atmosphere, is an understatement. Look out for them on their social media handles and please keep in contact… the future looks bright!
