Renowned Ghanaian Worship Leader and Music Director, Christopher Kwabena Appau, professionally known as Chris Appau, unveils his latest musical masterpiece, “ABBA: The Worshipper’s Journal.”

This highly anticipated album showcases Chris Appau’s multifaceted talents as a worship leader, music director, producer, multi-instrumentalist, and songwriter.

From his early start as a drummer and keyboardist in church and various bands in Accra at the age of ten, Chris Appau has been on a musical journey deeply influenced by the likes of Elder Ken Appiah, PS Joe Beecham, Benjamin Dube, Donnie McClurkin, Jason White, Kevin Bond, and other international musicians.

These influences have shaped his passion and love for God, expressed eloquently through the universal language of music.

In 2012, Chris Appau initiated one of Accra’s largest worship and thanksgiving events, “I NEVA WOULD HAVE MADE IT,” setting the stage for a remarkable career in music ministry.

Building on this foundation, he recorded his debut album titled “Sounds of Worship” in 2015, officially released in 2016.

“ABBA,” his latest offering, is more than an album; it is an open journal chronicling Chris Appau’s profound encounters with God over six years.

The album’s diverse tracks, ranging from Afrobeat gospel to ballad gospel and highlife gospel, reflect Appau’s deep desire to guide listeners across varied age ranges and music tastes, into a deeper level of intimacy with their Creator.
