We are SOOOOO excited that Bazil Meade is going to be at BIG FEST 2020! Founder and Principal of The London Community Gospel Choir, Bazil has had over 40 years of experience in the music industry! Under his direction and tuition some of the industry’s finest gospel and R’n’B singers have blossomed and found successful careers and can be seen with artists such as Ellie Goulding, Kylie, Robbie Williams, Madonna, Eric Clapton, Sam Smith, Damon Albarn, and Emili Sande as well as private individuals merely wanting to learn or improve their skills.

He has provided musical direction for the hit west end production ‘Mama I Want To Sing’, the BBC film ‘Hallelujah Anyhow’ and provided his music and choir for The National Theatre’s production of “The Amen Corner” by James Baldwin.

In 2018 Bazil was awarded an MBE for “services to music especially the development of British Gospel Music”  He was recognised for what he has accomplished with LCGC.  The choir was originally set up for a one off concert but the performance went so successfully that they went on to release 13 albums over 35 years.

Continuing to live the dream, he now tours the “The Bazil Meade Experience” to relive the music of his youth inspired by soul, jazz and gospel.

Bazil is going to be teaching us a SOUL classic from the decades on the afternoon of BIG Fest – with his gospel vibe and inspirational stories, you are going to feel so uplifted from his workshop – do NOT miss this!
