The recording will take place in South Africa on March 4, 2023. The talented singer is among the few local artists making it on the international stage.
In an interview with Arts & Culture, Esther Grace said she will not only be representing her brand but will also be representing Botswana's gospel music industry.
She said singing gospel has brought her great joy adding that it was great to see the different emotions conjured from audiences whenever she ministers. Esther Grace describes herself as a worship leader, songwriter, a wife to David Grace and a mother of two beautiful children. However, she stated that she is doing pretty well in the music industry both locally and internationally.
She said she met South African gospel giant Omega at an event several years ago. “Since then, our relationship has seen both of us contributing to each other’s lives. Each time my husband and I host musical events, Omega is always part of it. We have written songs and produced an album and two singles that have been played on Btv, One Gospel, Trace TV and several radio stations.
My husband is an excellent songwriter and many artists have asked to feature his songs in their album but he has always maintained that at the right time we will collaborate with the right people,” she said. Furthermore, she said on December 31, 2022, Omega visited their church where he listened to her sing. She said he later on asked her to feature on one particular song in his upcoming album.
She said for an international artist to recognise her talent was overwhelming. She also said she was excited to perform to large audiences alongside talented and renowned artists.
She also said her personal expectation was to learn from recording artists who are doing well in the music industry. “I was born to sing. Everything that is big today started small. I started small. It takes time, persistence and perseverance to make things grow. Your support will be greatly appreciated. I would love to see many of you in South Africa on March 4, 2023. The tickets are available on computicket,” she ended.
