Gospel artists Andrez Music and Ken-I, alongside the electrifying Kingdom Grooves Band, will take the stage for a vibrant musical showcase themed “Vincy Meets Tobago.”

The event, ARISE Gospel Music Festival, will take place on April 19th and 20th in Tobago.

This 30-minute segment promises to deliver an unforgettable blend of Caribbean praise, worship, and cultural connection. With a mix of modern gospel, soca rhythms, and deep spiritual expression, the audience will experience the very best of Vincy gospel music.

Kingdom Grooves Band features some of SVG’s finest young musicians: Joshua Lewis – Drummer, Rodley Haynes – Keyboardist, Jonathan Cruickshank – Guitarist, Akil Augustus – Bassist, and Khiomal Cruickshank – Keyboardist.

Backing Andrez Music and Ken-I are powerhouse vocalists: Turphanie Bascombe, Abeni Richards, Keni-G Music, and Jewel Cruickshank.

The team’s creative presentation will be curated by Zonecia Daniel, Show Content Manager.

ARISE is one of the Caribbean’s premier gospel music festivals, drawing artists and audiences from across the region. Representing SVG on such a platform is both an honour and a powerful opportunity to showcase the nation’s gospel talent to the world.

“Our mission is not just to perform but to minister and represent the spirit of St. Vincent with excellence,” said Andrez Music.

The team extends special thanks to their Platinum Sponsor, the SVG Tourism Authority, whose support has made this journey possible. Gratitude is also extended to their Title Sponsor, Lavue Boutique Hotel.

Their generous contributions are helping to elevate SVG’s presence on the regional gospel stage.
