Born Osinachi Kalu, Sinach has become one of the most respected and influential voices in contemporary gospel music. Her career has been marked by a commitment to creating songs that inspire faith, hope and devotion among listeners from different backgrounds. She gained worldwide recognition through her global worship anthem Way Maker, a song that became a favourite in churches across denominations and countries. The track’s message of faith and trust in God connected with millions of people, making it one of the most recognised gospel songs of recent years. Through her ministry, Sinach has demonstrated the ability to use music as a tool for bringing people together through shared spiritual experiences.
Beyond Way Maker, Sinach has built an impressive catalogue of worship songs that continue to resonate with audiences worldwide. Her celebrated tracks include I Know Who I Am, Great Are You Lord, He Did It Again and The Name of Jesus, each carrying messages of faith, gratitude and praise. These songs have become popular choices in worship services, personal devotion and gospel events across Africa and beyond. Her discography reflects years of dedication to producing music that encourages believers and provides messages of hope during challenging times. Her acclaimed albums, including Chapter One, The Name of Jesus, There’s an Overflow and Greatest Lord, have further strengthened her reputation as a leading figure in gospel music.
The Arise with Sinach concert will also feature another internationally recognised Nigerian gospel artiste, Victor Thompson. Known for his inspirational hit song This Year, Victor Thompson has gained a strong following with music that celebrates hope, blessings and positive expectations for the future. His participation adds another major attraction to an already highly anticipated event. The song This Year became an anthem across Africa and other parts of the world, connecting with listeners through its message of perseverance and faith.

The international gospel stars will be supported by some of Zimbabwe’s most respected worship leaders and music groups. The local line-up includes Bonnie Deuschle and Celebration Choir, Janet Manyowa, Ellard Cherayi, Sharon Cherayi, Joyful Praise Choir and Eleana Makombe. Their involvement highlights the depth of Zimbabwe’s gospel music talent and ensures that the event will showcase both international and local ministry. Each artiste brings a unique style and experience that will contribute to the overall worship atmosphere. The combination of Zimbabwean and Nigerian gospel voices reflects the spirit of unity that often defines major Christian gatherings.

Her upcoming appearance in Harare is expected to continue that tradition by bringing people together through powerful worship experiences.
Organisers of the Arise with Sinach concert have encouraged attendees to arrive with faith and expectation as they prepare for the event. They have described the gathering as more than a musical concert, presenting it as a platform designed to inspire lives through worship and messages of hope. The event is expected to attract worshippers from different parts of Zimbabwe as well as visitors from neighbouring countries who want to experience Sinach’s ministry in person.
