Daughters Of Glorious Jesus Launches Back 2 Back Concert

For more than 20 years of dedicated life of inspiring gospel music lovers in Ghana and across the world, the sensational group, Daughters of Glorious Jesus, have bounced back with a new concept to draw souls closer to God.

The Daughters of Glorious Jesus is a gospel trio made up of Cynthia Appiadu (lead singer), Edna Sarpong, and Monica Owusu Ansah.

With 10 albums and over 100 songs to their credit, the management of Daughters of Glorious Jesus have launched a musical concert dubbed �Back2Back 2013 Musical Concert�. The concert which was launched by Samuel Attah-Mensah, managing director of Citi FM, aims at creating a platform for gospel music fans to enjoy thrilling soul-touching performances from the three sisters and many popular gospel artistes.

The concert, which will be held at the Accra International Conference Centre on January 6, will feature some selected gospel stars which include Pastor Joe Beechem, Helen Yawson, the Tagoe Sisters, Cwesi Oteng among others.

The members of Daughters of Glorious Jesus, at the launch held at the Alisa Hotel in Accra, promised music fans that the show will be different from the previous one.

�The Back2Back concept, which we started from the beginning of this year with our first show on Sunday January 1, has come to stay. Today we are launching the Back2Back 2013, which will be staged live on January 6, 2013,� Mr Theophilus Yartey, a management member of the group told the media at the launch.

Beginning their individual music careers in the early 1980s, Mr Yartey said they became Daughters of Glorious Jesus in 1989, when one Reverend Akwasi Asare, saw the great talent and potential in them and gave them all the needed support.

Through the exceptional support of the Rev Asare, Daughters of Jesus recorded their first album in Europe in 1990. �Daughters of Glorious Jesus have sung in every major church programme and major churches in Ghana you can think of. We are proud and happy how God has used them to touch lives not only in Ghana but across the world,� Mr Yartey said.

The group started as part of the choir of the Resurrection Power and Living Bread Ministries then headed by the late Rev. Francis Akwasi Amoako in 1987.

Later, the General Overseer of the Church, Bishop Akwasi Asare Bediako, saw their potential and encouraged them to form a group. They proceeded to minister through songs at various church crusades and conventions.

Their debut album was �Anwanwa do�, released in 1990. Since then, they have won awards consistently through a number of albums and hit songs. In 2003, they released �Aseda� recounting their trails, tribulations and their miraculous deliverance from death.
Some of their hits include �Mebo wo din daa�, �Edin no�, �Asomdwoe hene�, �Tumi wo mu�, �Fata ayeyie�, �Ewurade�, �Yesu, woye m�ade nyinaa�, �Aseda ben�, �Yeyi w�aye�, �Okasa preko�, �Fa wasem to Awurade anim�, �Momma yenben Awurade�, �Odomfo�, and �Onakwafo Nyame.
