Cavalry Family Church (CFC) Radio DJ Peter Sambo will tomorrow launch his debut 10-track gospel album Pa Cavalry at Le Meridien Mount Soche’s Njamba room.
Sambo, a former FM 101 DJ whose trademark name was Total Blackout, told The Nation the album was recorded at Rhema Studio in Blantyre and has one track in English and the rest in Chichewa.
One song, Adzayankha-Amamva is enjoying air time on most of the country’s radio stations and doing well on charts.
Sambo, 22, says he classifies his music as pop-gospel.
“Before I was born again, my kind of music was pop by Westlife, Britney Spears and Nysnc and so this is the kind of music that I play,” Sambo, who has previously performed alongside Tionge Mhango, Chipiliro Mtumodzi and Jeff Kayira, says.
According to Sambo, various gospel artists such as Reazon Y, The Lac, Rudo Mkukupha, Adams Family, Springs and Roy K will grace the occasion.
Sambo recorded Pa Cavalry with his group, Kairosi Music.
