Gospel singers switch to embrace live shows

In the absence of music concerts, and the trend to restrict who attends church services, many praise and worship gospel singers have chosen to reach their fans through live-streamed shows.
One of the most hyped events earlier in the year brought together Eunice Njeri, Evelyn Wanjiru and Mercy Masika. It was aired to thousands of receptive viewers, casting any doubt that the public was not willing to embrace this new form of entertainment. Be it at a party, in church or the confines of one’s home, it would appear that audiences prefer live music performances to recorded shows.
