The Tafawa Balewa Square, Onikan, Lagos, is gearing up to host the
annual gospel musical concert, The Experience. This is even as
organisers of the show-piece event have announced their readiness for
this year’s edition billed to go down on Friday, December 7 and
Saturday, December 8, 2012.
Billed to perform at the gospel event are popular singers including
US-based Fred Hammond, Deitrick Haddon, Don Moen, Chevelle Franklyn, all
of whom will be supported by their Nigerian counterparts, Wale Adenuga
and Sammie Okposo.
Also on the list are Mike Aremu, Micah Stampley and the Chosen Treasure group.The concert which is in its sixth year, has been responsible for
bringing internationally recognized acts like Kirk Franklin, Cece and
Bebe Winans, Ron Kenonly, Tom Brooks, Donnie McClurkin among others at
different times.
Last year, The Experience held at the Expo Hall of the New Eko Hotels
Lagos against its traditional venue of the open ground of the Tafawa
Balewa square due to security concerns.
The Experience is a brain child of Paul Adefarasin’s ‘House on The Rock’.
