about
In 2017 I had a very strange encounter with the Lord in one of my most devasting times in my life. I got evicted by my landlord somewhere in Hamburg, Germany where I was forced to move to a church I was obliged to musically. I decided to wait on God for three days during that interval and got a visitation the second day. In this dream, I saw three angels singing this song Woara in a very passionate manner. In fact they sounded so harmonious that I didn’t want to come out of the dream. Well there and then, I woke up and already started humming the song. This tune kept on recurring and tormenting me for some time until I decided to add to a set of songs I had previously decided to work on in the studio with Jonny Amoako, one of the best sound engineers in Hamburg, Germany.
During the Covid-19 times, this song really helpled so many people globally. It's a song that can't fade. A song which needs no permission to appeace your soul. A song with a universal meaning irrespective of the language. A song so similar to Jerusalema as you continually listen. Trust me, you will enjoy.
