We're a London-based gospel choir commited to bringing the beautiful and life-enhancing sound of gospel to new audiences.  We sing regularly in Anglican and Catholic churches as well as secular settings like The Jazz Cafe and the festivals Greenbelt and the Big Church Day Out.  We share our resources and have a 'toolkit' to enable other churches to explore gospel music and start their own choirs.

We're also available to hire for weddings, and events of all kinds so contact our organiser Miko Giedroyc at info@soulsanctuarygospel.com or call on 07982 441536.

"Sam Merrick is a British singer of ever growing repute. Having had the privilege of sharing the stage & performing with some of the top names in Jazz, he now performs across the the UK, pleasing audiences far and wide with the likes of The Nick Ross Orchestra, Ronnie Scott's Jazz Orchestra & other projects on the London & UK Circuits."  

Autumn 2020 saw Sam featured on a number of tracks on The Nick Ross Orchestra's anticipated brand new album, 'Sounds of the Glenn Miller Era', of whom he has been touring with for over 6 years. Recorded at the world-famous, Abbey Road Studios in London back in March 2020 and released on Montpellier Records, it includes a whopping 17 tracks all paying homage to that magical era of music.

"...to complete the vocal array, on came the slight figure of Sam Merrick... (and) again, excelled, taking ‘I’ve Got You Under My Skin’ and sundry other favourites for an altogether pleasing ride."
