A free Gospel Music event will be taking place in Liverpool this November. The 2nd annual Gospel Music Against Poverty – GOMAP – will be presented by Tigon Music in partnership with Liverpool Ark Discovery Centre (LADC). The free showcase of gospel music will take place at Love Assembly on Steble Street in L8 on Saturday 8th November and will feature a host of local talent.

The event’s Volunteer Founder Ayotunde “AJ” Falana launched the project last year as way to use Gospel Music’s “phenomenal power” to make a positive difference in the community. AJ is a former LIPA student and a volunteer co-founder of Leading Support For Humanity (LSFH) – the parent social enterprise of Tigon Music who have organised this exciting night of Gospel Music with LADC.

The concert – entitled ‘Uniting Nations With Praises’ – will feature artists hailing from a host of countries, including India, Iran, Romania, Kenya, Sri Lanka, D.R Congo and more. The line-up includes artists such as Kenny, Christabel, Nunodaman, Leye Sax, Tayameaca, Deborah, Titus Joseph, Riva Aikenzambe, and Tolu and will also feature performances by Kingdom Children Choir, L A Choir, James Sax, P Major and other special guests.

AJ says of this year’s event: “Uniting Nations With Praises brings unity, togetherness and peace, which are essential for strength, progress, cohesion and overcoming challenges with individuals, families, communities, cities and nations. Please join us with love in using the power of praises in different genres and languages to strengthen the understanding, unity, togetherness, peace, and making a positive transformation in the lives of the less privileged in our communities.”

LSFH uses projects powered by the arts to tackle multiple deprivation and poverty in Liverpool, the North West and beyond. The main deprivations they focus on tackling are the lack of skills and training in the music industry; terminal illness and children with physical disabilities; homelessness; and child poverty. The rest of the LSFH team are made up of international evangelist, Pastor Herman Thystre; award-winning fashion designer, Tayameaca Hughes and Operations Director, Jospeh Ngugi, and from the LADC Team, Nkem Bamisile and Deborah Adewusi to mention just a few.

The 2nd annual GOMAP – Gospel Music Against Poverty will take place on Saturday 8th November 2025, 1pm at Love Assembly, Steble Street, L8 6QH. Entrance is free with donations welcome.
