Anu Omideyi’s beautiful broad smile, infectious personality, beautiful voice and uplifting music spread joy and love throughout the 606 Club.
Once in a while my wife and I go to see performers who we have never heard of. Anu is the reason why. Her performance was fantastic and her music was beautiful, well worth the journey. This was our twenty-five Gospel Brunch and this was one of the best.
From the moment Anu arrived on stage and thanked us all for coming to the moment she departed to loud applause, we were richly entertained.
Anu had the support of some excellent musicians and backing singers Dave Niskin on guitar (who we had seen play with Yolanda Brown three weeks ago), Nicky Brown (piano), Josiah Oyekunle (Drums), Tunji Dairo (Bass), Manley O’Connor (Keys), Shanelle Sinclair, Esther Odekunle and Ester Folorunson (Backing Vocals)
There were many highlights including a performance from Nicky Brown singing a song based on Psalm 23 (The Lord Is My Shepherd) with Anu and her backing singers, Stromzy’s Blinded By Your Grace,Mary Mary’s Shackles and Anu’s own songs ‘The Worship Must Go On’ and ‘Dance in the Rain.
Tunji Dairo and Shanelle Sinclair were given solo spots and showed that they have rich vocal talent too.
The performance ended with an encore which was another of her self-penned songs ‘Restore the Faith’ in which Anu successfully got most of the audience to join in the chorus.
The audience were richly entertained and left the 606 Club with smiles on their faces.
