CHARAMBA  The gospel legendary singer Pastor Charles Charamba who rose to stardom with his original compositions that weave social commentary and spiritual redemption makes a United States debut visit with his wife and fellow singer Olivia.  His vocal style that is supported by indigenous rhythms can make you rise on your feet to dance the night away yet the lyrics provoke spiritual reflection that leaves you yearning for more.  The meteoric success of this bestselling album defined Charamba as an appealing singer whose voice blends tenor and alto falsetto and from that point he never looked back.  His catalogue touches on issues that range from spiritual redemption to social issues such as the importance of marriage and fidelity in preventing HIV/AIDS.

Pastor Charamba's first album introduced his work to the world but his next album John 3 V 16 literally rocked audiences both in religious and secular communities. In 2004 he brought another gift to the world in the form of Chapters and Verses, an album that disappeared from the shelves at the pace it was stocked. Within four weeks the album had sold in excess of 100 000 copies. Ever since he became a full-time singer, Pastor Charamba never abandoned his roots as a preacher. His songs and even album titles draw inspiration from the Bible and yet he is able to combine those biblical teachings with his social message. Charamba has never shied away from his role as a teacher. He revealed his approach to The Sunday Standard when asked how he composed a song. "I have three approaches. The first is like that of a teacher," Charamba shared. "Each song is original and as good as the next. I try as much as possible to make the songs different and strive for variety. I am not in the habit of throwing messages about haphazardly," he added. His wife Olivia, a diva of repute, complements her husband in this musical treat not to be missed by music fans that appreciate music that transcends culture.
Pastor Charamba is no ordinary singer. He sincerely believes he has a calling to spread a message of redemption, love and righteousness to the world. A pastor with the Apostolic Faith Mission, his songs carry the weight of a preacher and the mellow rhythms that accompany smooth lyrics puts him across as an entertainer. His ability to combine entertainment and teachings has solidified his stature as a gospel artiste. And Pastor Charamba does not rest on his laurels. He continues to compose even for his wife who sings in the English language. He admits he prefers not to sing in the English language so he leaves that to his beloved wife. Whether you are a believer or not there is something to learn from Pastor Charamba's music. One good example is from his album aptly titled New Testament in which he talks about merits of marriage, the folly of drinking and driving and the dangers of paganism. Now after buying his albums and listening to his music over the radio, Pastor Charamba has decided to give his fans an opportunity to sing along with him as he tours the United States this fall. His performances never fall short of expectations, he amuses the crowd and he entrances listeners of all backgrounds.
