Birthed in 1979 at the University of the West Indies (UWI), Mona campus, their message is reconciliation of individuals to God, through Jesus Christ, and hope despite disillusionment. Challenging traditional barriers, New Creation pioneered the writing and recording of reggae gospel songs and is well-known for its signature eclectic arrangements – a fusion of multiple musical genres. We hear the evolution of its continuously relevant sound as their next generation create new versions of their songs, tapping into new sounds in their artistic expressions. NCGI’s ministry can be enjoyed in virtual format, as they periodically publish FaceBook Live productions. Their music can also be found on the group’s website, NewCreationGeneration.org.
