Preserving Gospel Legacy: Kent Gospel Choir’s Annicia Shields | SXSW UK Debut | The Edge 177 w/ Roger Moore
In this powerful episode of The Edge on Affinity Xtra, Roger Moore sits down with Annicia Shields, President of the award-winning Kent Gospel Choir, after their standout performance at SXSW — the first-ever UK gospel showcase hosted by GMIA.
Roger shares his personal reaction to their set, calling out deep-rooted gospel techniques and a legacy sound rarely heard in today’s modern choirs. From Annicia’s upbringing in a small Caribbean church to leading a student choir that won the UGCY Choir of the Year twice, this conversation is a heart-filled exploration of legacy, creativity, and the future of gospel music in the UK.
🎙️ Topics covered include:
How Kent Gospel Choir blends tradition with innovation
Annicia’s personal gospel heritage and family musical legacy
Why gospel choirs matter now more than ever
The challenges and triumphs of leading a university choir during COVID and beyond
Insights on keeping the core gospel sound alive in the next generation
This isn’t just a chat — it’s a testimony, a torch-passing, and a challenge to the gospel music community.
