First opus of WAÏ, music to bring us closer together!

“And still, after all this time,
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe Me."
Look what happens with
A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky.” Hafiz

Gospël of the Sun

"The purpose of Art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." Pablo Picasso

Wishing the lucky ones a magical journey on the Playa

Oasis Under The Sun

"The secret to happiness is freedom and the secret to freedom is courage." Thucydides

This is our GOSPËL: https://www.facebook.com/gospeltribe

GOSPËL blurs boundaries with an original concept, merging a combined restaurant, a social-cultural club, art space, and home for our creative community.

The multi-floor design is reflective of our BABËL ethos, allowing for content creation, self-actualization, spiritual growth, and transformative music events.

In addition to GOSPËL, we will launch B. Om on the 1st floor, an all-day Bohemian cafe & juice bar with a retail component that will transform into a Social lounge space in the evening, drawing inspiration from the Dadaism movement and the famous Cabaret Voltaire.

GOSPËL will integrate delicious, health forward mediterranean cuisine. GOSPËL will also showcase art exhibitions and a stage for live music performances & deejays in addition to holding classes including meditation & special daytime talks.

Nestled in the heart of SoHo, GOSPËL, is a cutting edge collective space, restaurant and lounge, centered around Friendship, Music & Arts.
GOSPËL isn't your typical place of worship.

Here we celebrate our Planet’s Creation through Music, Arts, great Food and everlasting LAUGHTER ! Our preachers are artists, musicians, philosophers and poets...

Following our passion for creativity, freedom of speech, and collaborations we value irreverence & culture over dogmatism.
Our mantra is ‘light up the darkness,’
inspired by the legendary, Bob Marley. When asked how he could perform two days after being shot, Bob Marley responded, ‘The people who were trying to make this place worse are
not taking the day off. Why should I?
Light up the darkness.’

We are ready to share ‘The Light’ and return to a time when music was the strongest GOSPËL, a revolutionary force carried by a message of love. We're spreading the revolution with GOSPËL and the belief that music and all creative expression is the most powerful spiritual connection to unify and inspire.

WE ARE A FAMILY OF FRIENDS AND WE PURSUE HAPPINESS THROUGH CELEBRATION.

Gospël of FREEDOM

You stand drenched in the golden light as the sun sets behind the skyline across the river. 
A breeze comes. The air feels like crushed velvet. 
A blend of disco, funk, soul, and house music plays, enveloping you in sound. 
Beside you, a community of artists, of creatives, the very spirit of the future. 
The ritual is familiar, but there’s something that has been improved. 
Look around. 
This is the future realizing itself. 
This is a breath of fresh air. 
Be grateful. 
It is summertime, and the living is easy.
