Naomi Raine and Todd Galberth to Lead Worship in Harare on Everywhere Tour

Harare is set to host a transformative night of worship as internationally-celebrated American gospel artistes Naomi Raine and Todd Galberth return to Zimbabwe for the Everywhere Tour on March 13. The event will take place at the Harare International Conference Centre, bringing together local and regional worshippers for an evening that promises both musical excellence and spiritual connection. Anchoring the local line-up are Janet Manyowa and worship ensemble The Unveiled, who will open the ministry segment and set the tone for a night focused on communal praise. Raine and Galberth’s previous appearance in Zimbabwe in 2025, as part of the Maverick City Music tour, left a lasting impression, generating high demand for their return. Organisers emphasise that the concert is designed not only as a performance but also as a shared worship experience for attendees.

Event director Lyncolin Kapswara, representing Events by GEC, highlighted that the Everywhere Tour Zimbabwe transcends entertainment. He explained that these concerts create a platform where believers can meet, worship collectively, and experience God in a unified space. Worship, he said, is a communal act, and this event is structured to encourage engagement and spiritual participation rather than passive observation. Early bird tickets are available to encourage widespread attendance, with pricing at US$30 for general admission, US$80 for VIP seating, and US$100 for the Golden Circle package, which includes a meet-and-greet opportunity with the artistes. Interest in the event is strong, reflecting the sustained appeal of Raine and Galberth’s music and their ability to inspire international and local audiences alike.

Naomi Raine is widely recognised for her role in Maverick City Music and has successfully launched a solo career, with projects such as Journey, Cover the Earth (Live), The Gift, and Jesus Over Everything (Live). Her vocal artistry and worship leadership have positioned her as a sought-after figure in gospel music globally. Todd Galberth, a worship pastor and recording artiste, has produced projects including Decrease, Encounter, and Greater, with popular songs like Lord You Are Good and Better Than Good. Their combined presence in Harare is expected to attract audiences from across the region, creating a convergence of international worship influence and local engagement. Organisers have not released official attendance figures, but anticipation is high given the artists’ reputations and the inclusive nature of the event.

Local performers opening the concert bring depth and diversity to the evening. Janet Manyowa continues to inspire with contemporary gospel music that blends spiritual themes and relatable life experiences, while The Unveiled contribute youthful energy and harmonic richness to the stage. Cleo Arie and Sharon Cherayi are admired for their strong vocal delivery and ministry consistency, and Ellard Cherayi’s presence reflects a commitment to faith-driven artistry. Together, these local artistes highlight Zimbabwe’s vibrant gospel landscape, bridging traditional and modern worship expressions. Their participation also underscores the importance of creating platforms for homegrown talent alongside internationally recognised ministers.

The Everywhere Tour Zimbabwe aims to foster inclusivity, welcoming worshippers of all denominations and ages to participate in a shared spiritual experience. The concert positions Harare as a hub for international gospel music while providing opportunities for local musicians to showcase their talents on a global stage. Organisers stress that the night is designed to celebrate worship as both a communal and transformative act, allowing attendees to engage fully in the message of praise and faith. With a mix of global and local artistry, the March 13 concert promises to be a landmark event, reinforcing the city’s reputation as a destination for world-class gospel music engagements and offering attendees a memorable, spiritually uplifting experience.
