BERLIN, N.H. — The Funky Divas of Gospel will light up the stage at St. Kieran Arts Center at 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 27. in a concert filled with gospel songs and music. Tickets are $12 for adults and $6 for students.
The Funky Divas of Gospel is a collaboration of a dozen soloists, musicians and choir members from the seacoast area, whose purpose is to share an uplifting and life-affirming message through traditional and contemporary spirit-filled music. The Divas are led by Executive Producer-Soloist Jim White and Barbara Whitney, band leader-singer on keyboards, accordion and percussion.
The music is primarily defined as gospel in the southern African-American tradition with an R&B, jazz, bluegrass and soul flavor. However, they also include traditional gospel songs and songs from other faiths and cultures as well as secular music.
Joan Chamberlain, arts center executive director, said, “The Funky Divas performances are fun and festive events and suitable for all ages. We heartily welcome everyone to attend this exciting and high-energy February concert designed to help chase away the winter chill.”
