This weekend...

A UK Gospel.com partnership project
EXHALE's third event is this weekend (and yes, that IS Lisa McClendon...)
UK Gospel.com is a primary online partner of EXHALE!, now on its third event.
If excellent live acoustic music in a chilled-out atmosphere floats your boat, then head out this
Saturday...
In addition to the Soul stylings of US guest LISA, you'll absolutely enjoy the brilliant talent of
superb UK acts. But don't take our word for it.
Read about the last one. Once again, LANRE recaps, and gets a few friends to say a word...

I wasn't too sure what EXHALE! 2 was going to be like...
Not because I doubted the content as the line up was HOT! With artists like KIRSTEN, UMAU, BABY SOL, JAZ ELLINGTON, TEAM 6 (from Nigeria) the night was definitely going to be something else. What I doubted was the turn out.
BUT as the people trickled in, I knew my fears were not necessary. The venue, LEONARDS EC1
was so packed to the brim that we had to open the doors. I no longer doubted the power of the 'gab' as most people came by personal recommendation.
KARL NOVA, the resident host, had this to say:
'...I had no doubt that it was going to be a great
event. The acts were top quality and we were
coming off the success of the first EXHALE! event, so I was buzzing.
I was a bit concerned about how the turn out was going to be because I didn't feel we did

enough promotion. I guess I underestimated the power of "word of mouth" promotion!
The greatest thing is to see people getting blessed and that is what I witnessed first hand from my vantage point of being one of the hosts...'
Hosting alongside KARL was AYO-DELE (the 'A' in GK REAL) - her thoughts were;
'I was expecting a show that had a good mix of talents
especially after the first one. A standard was set, but the second
definitely superceded it.
It was a very enjoyable evening but the excitement was seeing
the faces of the guests, not knowing what to expect from each
act was electric.

Can't wait for the next one, if the last two shows are anything to go by it's going to be FANTASTIC...'
I caught up with BREIS who brought the house down with his track
IDENTITY: '...I had no expectations but the night was an enjoyable
experience - amazing artists and a wonderful audience and atmosphere.
The crowd were supportive and encouraging too. My best EXHALE!
moments are too many to mention. I am most definitely looking
forward to the next one and I am recommending it to peeps!...'

As the 29th of SEPT draws closer, I am in my EVENTS MANAGER mood: excited, worried,
Starting out as a magazine, EXHALE! has now become an event that supports grassroots artists at
intimate themed events. Currently working on an acoustic theme, many of the acts appearing on the
bill excel in delivering organic music in EXHALE!'s relaxed atmosphere..

panicking... all the emotions you can imagine, but I am looking forward to it.
Not just because of the line up. This is a bigger one and - like AYO-DELE says - the standard has been set, we cannot go below that standard - not that we're planning to!!
So, this Saturday, September the 29th 2007, we will be hosting LISA McCLENDON, GK REAL, BIANCA ROSE, JAZ ELLINGTON and many more...
KARL NOVA and the ever-popular MUYIWA OLANREWAJU will be hosting the night. LISA is really looking forward to coming to London.
And we're expectant too.
