Artist Watch: Sam Opeche

Look out for the sophomore album, We Enter In: The Journey In Worship, from Sam Opeche, a Christian artist to watch.

His debut album, The Journey, released in 2009, has sold over 2,000 copies, and his new release is expected to surpass this figure. Sam’s music has been likened to that of pop superstar Seal, but with a Christian lyrical edge, which is hardly surprising considering that Sam is a worship leader and an ordained minister within the Redeemed Christian Church of God, one of Britain’s fastest growing Pentecostal denominations. Sam has come a long way since performing the latest r’n’b hits at various parties and clubs in his hometown of Lagos and Abuja. However, when he had an encounter with Jesus, his life and the subjects he wanted to sing about totally changed. The next few months seem set to be busy ones for Sam, as he journeys across the UK, sharing and performing songs from We Enter In: The Journey In Worship in his efforts to touch people’s hearts and minds with his God-inspired music.
