Our current album, Somebody’s Praying, is also available to preview and buy online by visiting the music section.

The Kilkenny Gospel Choir was founded in 2000 by Fr. Willie Purcell, current director of the choir. In the time since, we have raised over €400,000 for charities, released one single and three albums. The latest album, Somebody’s Praying, was released in March 2008 in aid or the Irish Cancer Society and Cancer Care.

We are delighted to boast that our choir is an international one in the past nine years we have had members from every county in Ireland as well as from Germany, France, England, Austria, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Tobago and Congo.
