Join Origin's Foot Stomping Gospel Band for an evening of fantastic blues and Gospel music.

Playing a mixture of blues and Gospel standards, as well as re-interpretations of classic foot-stomping hymns from the 20th century, Foot Stomping Gospel Band performances do exactly what it says on the tin.

It's a great opportunity to bring a friend along to hear fantastic music and the stories of the singers as they share both their music and their faith in a relaxed environment.

No tickets are required for this performance. Admission is free. Opportunity to "give what you think it's worth" as you leave (cash or card).

Lead Singer: Scott Rennie
Scott became a Christian in December 2000, a journey that started when he was 18 and ended when he was around 27. He went from an upbringing in staunch atheism to realising that if there really was a God, he could surely guide to whomever his messenger was. After a few amazing encounters he guided Scott straight into the arms of the one and only Saviour Jesus Christ. Scott joined Origin in 2011 and has been a lead singer with the Foot Stomping Gospel Band and our PRODIGAL production since 2016.
