Dublin Gospel Choir inspired by "Sister Act"

This promises to be a great night of gospel music with awe-inspiring performances from this unique group of singers.

From their modest beginnings as a local school choir in Dublin’s inner city 13 years ago, the Dublin Gospel Choir have become a household name in Ireland, playing a host of concerts each year, plus a large number of corporate and charity events.

Add to that their annual slot at Ireland’s internationally-acclaimed boutique festival Electric Picnic (at which they played the Main Stage again in 2009) and a performance to a sell-out 82,000 crowd at Croke Park in 2008, and you have a group of people who are really going places.

The choir also featured along with Chris de Burgh on a special New Year’s Day BBC Songs of Praise programme which was broadcast to over 35million viewers worldwide. Whereas the religious audience is one target market for them, the Dublin Gospel Choir seems to have broad appeal.

The show takes place on Friday, May 21st at 8pm.
