“I Give You My All”
Reviewed by Doug Holland, May 2011, Crossrhythms.co.uk
o This single from a London-based R&B gospel worship outfit fronted by Eric Appiah-Kubi is an excellent example of the
songwriter's craft, with build, movement and musical development operating against a strong central theme and
combining to deliver an all together excellent listen. The orchestration, apart from the drum pattern, is excellent while
the warm vocals reach for the heights but never lose a sense of intimacy. A track which leaves you wanting more, which
is always a good sign.
“I Will Carry On”
Reviewed by Tony Cummings, July 2014, Crossrhythms.co.uk
o Ghana-born, London-based Eric is an excellent purveyor of pop rock worship and with experienced producer Tom Mills
(Onehundredhours, The Burn Band) here delivers an excellent EP which stands up very well when compared with the big
budget, high profile releases of the worship music monoliths. Eric's opener "You Are" is the simplest declaration of faith
("You are everything I need") with a surging anthemic atmosphere while the slower "I Will Carry On" features an
exceptional vocal which conveys passion and tenderness. On it Eric is joined by a soulful sister who adds to the
atmosphere of adoration. All in all, an excellent EP from a talented young worship leader and singer/songwriter and
which follows up his 2011 single "I Give You My All".

Overcoming many adversities from childhood to manhood, Eric Reverence is one to revere. A child of divorce, persevering abuse growing up , his sister is what kept him going. Eric reveals, “It was very tough but at a young age I always knew in my heart that God had great plans for my life.”
Eric began showing leadership in music as a teenager when he wrote and composed songs for his church choir as the Choir Director. This is also around the time when he discovered his own musical voice and unique sound. Living in a community where the predominant gospel sound was heavily influenced by soul R&B, there was a pressure to follow the trend.

Letting himself be influenced by what other people thought did not bring Eric happiness or peace. He followed his passion to sing in the style he felt his spirit was happiest with.
It wasn’t until after people began to approach him and tell him how his music affected them in a blessed way that it was confirmed for him. He was on the right path that God wanted him to be on..
Eric has toured all over the UK and some parts of America while continuing to expand his reach.

Since finding Jesus as his Lord and saviour at the age of 14 at a revival conference, Eric has been on a spiritual faith walk that has led him to grow in wisdom from trials and tribulations of musical and spiritual relationships that ended up to be disappointing. Eric’s vision of ministering in front of thousands of people all over the world led him to leave behind all things that were not in synch with his mission.
A profound revelation came to Eric in July 2009 that ‘this is the time to move and act on your calling.’ His wife confirmed it with having the same revelation. God was taking him in a different direction, a direction that didn’t include current alliances. “God was letting me see that not everyone who is close to me has the right motives for me.”

Eric is at a peaceful place in life where God is using him as a vessel to minister to many through his multi-culturally diverse worship music. Currently a part of Kingdom Life City Church, his ultimate heart and passion is to help those in need, especially fund raising for orphanages.
His goal is to empower and build others. He is especially interested in nurturing and developing young people with musical talents and gifts. Composing and producing songs that individuals and church organizations can use for their daily personal devotional needs or praise and worship is all a part of Eric’s plan to bring others in connection with God through songs he has written.
