The Maynooth Gospel Choir came together last Thursday night at the Sugar Club, for a night of beloved Beatles songs with a Gospel twist. The gig was kicked off by the very talented Ruba Shamshoum, a singer, composer and creator of musical escapism, with influences ranging from jazz to Middle Eastern music. The Choir got into the Beatle Mania, covering songs such a Let it Be, Blackbird, Imagine, Come Together, Here Comes the Sun, Octopus's Garden, and Hey Jude. It was a fantastic night with a bit of twisting and shouting and a lot of “Love love love” from the audience. A great night had by all!
A little about the choir... The Maynooth Gospel Choir was founded in 2007 and has been entertaining people and spreading positivity and feel-good energy ever since. Now in its 10th year, the choir has performed alongside such talented acts as Jack L, Roisin O’Reilly, Christy Dignam of Aslan, Connor McKeon, Brian Kennedy, Niamh Kavanagh, the Harlem Gospel Choir, and many more. The aim of the choir is to bring joy, uplift and inspire people to sing themselves happy!
