The Late Show's Gospel Choir Sang A Musical Tribute to Shirley Caesar on PBS TV'S "GREAT PERFORMANCES"
On July 11, 2017 The Late Show's Gospel Choir, participated in "THE GRAMMY SALUTE TO MUSIC LEGENDS" Show brilliantly glowing in gold robes and purple sashes. They sang a nostalgic salute to Rev. Shirley Caesar in celebration of more than half a century of her singing Gospel music all over the world with the Famous Caravans and as a solo artist. Musical genius, Kirk Franklin, directed the LSG Choir, and arranged 8 of Shirley's latest hits into a melodious 7-minute medley. Le'Andria Johnson shook up the crowd singing Shirley's hit, "Satan, We're Gonna Tear Your Kingdom Down." Shirley brought the joyful crowd to its feet singing "Jesus, I Love Calling Your Name." After she finished singing, Kirk presented her with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. What an awesome moment!
This fantastic show was filmed at the Beacon Theater in New York City and it aired on PBS TV'S "GREAT PERFORMANCES" on October 13, 2017, which was also Shirley Caesar's birthday.

It was an international smash hit then, and the song has become a hit again!”

This superb choir also went on two outstanding sold-out tours to 17 cities of Spain, in 2011. In 2012, The Late Show’s Gospel Choir sang twice with hot rock band, 30 Seconds to Mars, on MTV’S “MTV Unplugged” & on NBC’s “Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.” They were also featured on TRU TV with comedian Billy Eicher’s “On the Street with Billy,” & on Fox 5’s “Inside Edition.” Last May, The Late Show’s Gospel Choir performed with 13 of Sweden’s hottest singers at the world-famous Apollo Theater, in the dramatic 4-part TV docu-series, “En Kvall i New York,” (“One Night in New York”) which aired on SVT TV in Sweden this past September to rave reviews.

Some of the Swedish recording artists were: Sabina Ddomba, Davin, Linda Pira, Zara Larsson, Andreas Lundstedt, Titiyo, Sarah Dawn Finer, Andreas Johnson, Oscar Zia, and others.
The Late Show's Gospel Choir was originally formed by Lady Peachena to sing exclusively for CBS TV's popular "LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN," 27 years ago, in Oct. '95, when the show's musical director, Paul Shaffer searched for a choir to film a video called "MOE." However, when Paul heard their harmonious voices, he invited them to sing live on "THE LATE SHOW" the very next night. Since then The Late Show's Gospel Choir sang on "THE LATE SHOW," for 10 years straight from '95 to 2005, making over 13 appearances. The first ever accomplishment for a Gospel Choir!

That was an amazing SRO concert! At the end of roof-raising concert, the choir sang "Jingle Bells" as a tribute to Lady Peachena. Then she lead the adoring crowd in a touching rendition of "Oh Happy Day."
