“Our new offering talks about a man who used to live an abused life and was seriously traumatised. As a result, he pleads with God to come into his life so that he overcomes temptation,” he said.
Spirit Praise Choir will also use the event as a launch pad for many of its productions ready for the market.
The group hopes to dish out new releases every month.
“We have a lot of programmes which we are doing apart from singing. We have empowerment programmes through seminars and workshops in our endeavour to make a better world through praise and worship,” Tawengwa said.
Formed in 2013, Spirit Praise Choir boasts over 40 members and has two musical albums, Yatokwana Nguva and Vatatu Mumwechete as well as six live DVDs recorded under the One Voice concert series.
