Highly acclaimed and respected multi‐award winner, Ernie Smith (4 x Samas, 1 x Kora and 1 x Metro fm awards, amongst many other nominations including one for this years SAMAs for Best Contemporary Jazz) brings a new, different and brilliant offering to the marketplace!
In his latest album, Blessed Man, we hear Ernie strictly playing gospel music, in his own unique and inimitable style, a genre his haunting vocals and evocative guitar playing blend perfectly with. Ernie Smith has a massive fan base and network for this genre of sound and has an elaborate plan of marketing involving Rhema as well as many other churches nationwide as a solid launch pad.
Be well aware that the public has been demanding this gospel release from Ernie for some time. Ernie is not chancing anything with this diversion, rather filling a void and demand in the marketplace that is readily apparent (one that will undoubtedly win him many more fans also).
Blessed Man is a credible and quality album that features Janine Price, John Ellis, Neville Diedricks, Imelda Wroots, Songs And Psalms, as well as the world renowned Jonathan Butler and is of the highest quality.
