Currently, he said, the album was getting attention from gospel music enthusiasts in the USA. \u00a0His musical career spans over 20 years. He released his first 10-track gospel album titled \u2018Love of Jesus\u2019 in Nigeria and Ghana in the year 1982.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><br \/>Prior to that, he had played with major bands as Sappers Band, Golden Tulip Band with actress Rama Brew, and Anigye Band, among other top bands in Ghana and Nigeria. He started singing at a tender age in the church. After his technical training at the Kotobabi Technical institute, the man, whole hails from the Ashanti Region, decided to pursue a full time career in music, so he began playing with the above-mentioned bands. \u00a0Subsequently, he managed to travel to Nigeria in the late 70s to ply his trade there. While there, he played with top stars as Charley Boy, Mike Ocre and other popular Nigerian stars. He also prepared his first 10-track album there. He returned to Ghana in 1982 to promote it but it did not make the impact he wanted. Later, he formed the group Friends with the late John K. He was also part of the group that established Village Communications, producers of \u2018Taxi Driver\u2019 TV series and Fabrija band but he left for the USA just when things started getting better.<\/p>\n<p>Working in USA all this while, he has prepared himself musically to meet the challenges of the US market. But he believes God is the better savior to give him his breakthrough. Songs on his upcoming album include \u2018God\u2019s Favour\u2019, and \u2018King of Kings\u2019 and \u2018Higher Higher\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI titled the album \u2018Higher Higher\u2019 because if you have been in the ministry for long, you will realize that we have been trying to lift the Lord\u2019s name higher\u2026 so everywhere you are, you have to lift His name higher. That is the reason I came up with that title,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The track, \u2018God\u2019s Favour\u2019, has a fusion of Afro-jazz rhythms and talks about God\u2019s favour. \u201cIn everything we do, it takes God grace. I don\u2019t think we can do anything without His grace,\u201d he added. \u2018King of Kings\u2019 is also a fusion of Jazz-alive to encourage listeners to trust in the Lord and acknowledge him because He is the only one with great direction.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>More:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ameyawdebrah.com\/2011\/09\/01\/gospel-singer-eben-ntre-launches-first-album-in-ghana\/#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed\" title=\"Gospel Singer Eben Ntre launches first album in Ghana\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gospel Singer Eben Ntre launches first album in Ghana<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Although much may not be known in Ghana about US-based gospel singer, Eben Ntre, he is currently in Ghana to launch his latest album as an introduction to the Ghanaian market. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-480193","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
