Young, vibrant and smart choral outfit, The Unveiled, left an indelible mark during their DVD recording held on Saturday at 7 Arts Theatre in Avondale, Harare.
The recording, which ran under the theme, “Next Level – Making Jesus Famous,” saw the auditorium packed to the rafters as fans enjoyed every moment.
The group’s new songs were well-received by the crowd.
The new songs include “Mweya Mutsvene,” “Dururai Mweya Mutsvene,” “Warrior,” “Take Over,” and “Rise Up.”
True to their name, they unveiled themselves to the world with a performance that suggested that they could be the next big thing to happen in Zimbabwe’s music industry.
They stamped their authority on the gospel genre as the next act to take over the baton from The Charambas, Shingisai Suluma, Prince Mafukidze, Fungisai Zvakavapano-Mashavave, and Mechanic Manyeruke among others.
The youthful group brings a new vibe, energy and style to the gospel music scene.
With such music, they are not only entertaining the young and old, but are challenging the established musicians to step up their game.
The event was divided into in two segments — first, they came clad in African attire which matched their cool, worship songs and the second one was the up-tempo dance vibe.
They performed the crowd-favourite “Tungamira,” which sent the fans into a frenzy.
They were later joined on stage by seasoned gospel singer Tembalami to perform “Gore Rino”.
The show indeed took fans to the “Next Level”.
It also saw top local musicians like Janet Manyowa, Everton Mlalazi, The Cherayis, and Tembalami performing.
The “elders”, as they were christened at the show, put up a good performance with their old hits.
Each time they were on stage, they pledged their support to the new “babies” in the game.
Comedian “Nigel Tha Slick Pastor” sailed flawlessly as the master of ceremony.
This time around he didn’t bring his comic attire on stage, but was clad in a black slim-fit suit, as a sign of respect to the DVD recording.
The event was well attended by local gospel musicians, including the Makombes, who just flew in the country ahead of their collaboration with local acts for their show next month.
