'Esther Smith Live Concert': Gospel legend reveals stars supporting her two-city comeback concert
Esther Smith is returning to Ghana after being away for 10 years.
The UK-based singer intends to mark her return to her home country, where she first found and honed her voice, and achieved stardom, with a two-part concert intended to
Her first stop is in her city of birth, Kumasi, on August 25, at Bantama Pentecost. In Accra, she will be at Perez Dome on August 30, 2024.
Esther Smith, on Facebook, Thursday, July 25, clarified, contrary to the impression her flyer might have given, the numerous guest singers joining her, including co-veterans and contemporary stars, will be divided into two so while some “perform in Accra; some will perform in Kumasi”.
She encouraged her patrons to get one of three-tier tickets and anticipate “an unforgettable experience in both cities”.
In Kumasi, Esther Smith will be joined by Joyce Blessing, Pastor Joe Beecham, Oware Jnr, Randy Agyemang, Stella Precious, Emens, Adom Kiki, Dorcas Appiah and her beloved partner in music and producer Morris Babyface.
In Accra, there will be repeat performers like Pastor Joe Beecham, Morris Babyface, Randy Agyemang, while Mark Anim, Nana Yaw Asare, Minister OJ, Noble Nketsiah, Kofi Sarpong, Becky Bonney, Diana Hammond, Kweku Teye, Minstrel Maadwoa, Paa Sammy, and Lady Prempeh join the roster afresh.
On both occasions, the Esther Smith Live Concert is themed: The Vision Is Jesus.
The latest from the serial hitmaker is Onyame Banbo with Morris Babyface, released on her birthday, July 5, shortly after she announced her return to Ghana and a concert to "lift up the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!"
A case for Esther Smith's legendary status is not difficult to make given the weight of her bag of hits, diverse music styles, length of service, and among other things, her range of themes; she convicts, motivates, inspires worship and delights.
At 14, she joined the Tanoso Methodist Church Choir, from whence she grew into a multiple award-winning artiste of national and international repute. Her debut long play (LP), Gye No Di, won her the 2003 Ghana Music Awards for Gospel Album of the Year, Gospel Artiste of the Year and Best Female Vocal Performance of the Year.
Hers is not a flowery voice but one that is certainly herb to the troubled soul.
