Sinach To Hold Live Easter YouTube concert

Osinachi Joseph, Nigerian gospel singer better known as Sinach, is set to stream ‘A Celebration of Joy’, her latest album, during a live YouTube concert to commemorate this year’s Easter celebration.

In a statement on Monday, YouTube said the virtual concert is scheduled for 6 pm on its platform on Sunday.

Commenting on the initiative, Sinach said such an opportunity would help her connect with friends and uplift souls through music as the world marks another Easter.

“I am particularly delighted to be able to connect with my friends from around the world on the YouTube platform, where they can expect me to minister some of my popular songs, and others from my new album, Greatest Lord,” she said.

“Easter Sunday is a time to reflect on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the celebration of life. I am extremely excited that, while this past year has been challenging for so many, we are able to connect on this platform to share uplifting songs during this long weekend.”

Also speaking, Addy Awofisayo, YouTube’s content partnership lead in Sub-Saharan Africa, said the live concert would help promote “courage, optimism and joy at a time when it is needed most.”

“Music is a universal language that has the ability to uplift and connect people across the world. YouTube is proud to be able to host this very special concert from Sinach, and delighted to promote courage, optimism and joy at this time when it’s much needed,” he said.

“We are very excited to be able to bring Sinach’s ‘A Celebration of Joy’ concert to people in their homes this Easter Sunday.”
