Gig announcement! Rob to play Chepstow Racecourse!

We're excited to announce that Rob and his band will be playing Chepstow Racecourse next month on Sunday 2nd September.

Rob, who has just returned from playing one of the biggest stages at one of the UK’s leading Christian music events - Creation Fest in Cornwall, will be playing the main stage at the world-famous Monmouthshire racecourse as part of the inaugural Wye Valley Food Festival.

Held over two days, the free event, sees a wealth of food vendors, culinary masterclasses, family activities, funfair and live music starting on Saturday 1st September. Rob and the band will be on stage from 4pm.

Rob says he is honoured by the opportunity to play at the event and is encouraging local churches to come together to support it.

“The Wye Valley Food Festival is such an exciting new event with plenty of activities to keep families of all ages occupied,” he said.

“Just looking at the quality of the food vendors, the masterclasses and the activities available, as well as the music, I’ve no doubt it will be a fantastic success.

“I’m excited and honoured to have been asked to play the main stage on Sunday afternoon and think it’s fitting to have Christian music being played on a day where many people in this country gather together to worship.

“At the moment, Christians in the UK are free to worship in public where others around the world are not. It is important we walk in the freedom we are given and many others around the world would love to have.

“What an amazing opportunity for the local church to come together in numbers and worship as one, publicly declaring our faith in front of hundreds and thousands of people at such an iconic sporting venue.”

RETURN TO THE STUDIO!

Recording latest!

Rob is to return to the studio to record the next two tracks of his debut worship album on Monday 7th August 2017.

So far Rob has recorded eight tracks for the record which he hopes to release sometime in 2017/18.

"I'm really excited to be heading into the studio once more," said Rob.

"I can't wait to record 'At your feet we fall' in particular as it is a powerful song which always helps us go deeper into God's presence at Gateway. It is also my 4 year-old son Ben's favourite, so there's understandably been a lot of pressure to get it recorded next!

"We will also be recording 'No More Tears (Glorious Day)' which was inspired a friend from church who sadly passed away last year.

"I would like to thank everyone who is supporting my ministry in every way, without your support I would not have been able to get back into the studio so soon."

If you would like to support Rob's ministry in any way, get involved or find out more then Rob would love to hear from you. Click the button below for more details:
