FRESH START: Gospel singer Flavia offers song of encouragement for 2020
Gospel singer Flavia Bradshaw Beswick is continuing her
practice of releasing a new song at the start of each year, with the recent
release of Give You All The Praise.
She embarked on the tradition in January 2019 with her
debut song God’s Will.
“The beginning of a new year for many is a chance at
a fresh start. Many make New Year’s resolutions with the hopes of achieving new
goals or even old ones but with new approaches,” she told BUZZ.
“My reason for wanting to release a song at the beginning
of each year is to start individuals off with a reminder to keep God at the
centre, as well as to give them a word of encouragement to fall back on when
things start to get difficult. This also ensures that I keep consistent with
recording and releasing music.”
A blessing
Give You All the
Praise was produced by Dale Haslam and precedes her EP slated
for release this summer, which she said will host a few collaborations and
“promises to be a blessing.”
Bradshaw Beswick is also a teacher at the Montego Bay
High School for Girls and vocal instructor at Full Coverage Music School in the
‘second’ city. Though originally from Kingston, she said the move to the west
has positively impacted her career.
“I’ve been given the opportunity to minister at Come
Celebrate Jesus and Genesis two years in a row, as well as Montego Bay’s annual
Christmas tree lighting in 2018, among other events not limited to this region,”
she said.
She also performed at Purpose Unleashed – Praisefest in
Antigua last year, hosted by Johnmark Wiggan, which she deems a 2019 highlight.
“It warmed my heart to hear the people sing along to
Something Good, a collaboration
between Johnmark and myself, and God
Will,” she said. “To experience firsthand the impact of your
ministry across borders is one of the greatest blessings there is,” she told
BUZZ.
