In September 2010, the University of Oregon Gospel Singers competed in, and won their first national title: The 2010 Disney National Gospel Choir Fest, in Orlando Florida. I was honored to be a part of the band that performed with the choir.
The choir, about 30 singers, was accompanied by a 9-piece band. It was an amazing weekend with a group of some of my best friends.
As our prize for winning, we got to perform at the Disney Night of Joy; one of the largest Christian music festivals in the world. Gospel superstar Smokie Norful opened for us, and we sang in front of several thousand people. Check out the pics below!
