It was our best ever year performing at the Broadstairs Blues Bash in February. We're booked again for next year's event on 21st February 2027 and really looking forward to that! Listen out for me on 107.8 Academy FM Radio, at 5pm, Sunday 15th March. I'll be a guest on the programme, Thanet Island Sounds. Bernie Morgan and I will be talking about the choir and playing songs from the choir's repertoire. We're always looking for more singers and musicians to join us. Listen in to find out more. You can also hear the broadcast online.
What's in a name?
When the Fisk Jubilee Singers were formed in America in 1871, their aim was to bring Spirituals and Gospel music to a wider audience. This is also our aim and so it seemed sensible to adopt that name for our choir. Since 2010 we were called: Thanet Community Gospel Choir. A long name that people frequently got wrong. Also, we want to establish our identity as a performing group. We're very proud to perform Christian songs but we also perform plenty of secular music. We're inspired by the roots of Gospel music and the branches. All of our music has the common aim to be uplifting and inspiring. This is the principle that guides Thanet Jubilee Singers.
