Moving along, welcome to the beginning of a man to whom singing has become the greatest medium to win souls to the kingdom of God. Enter KENNETH APPIAH leader of the group, a composer, arranger, and an Afro pop performer who is a native of Accra, Ghana. His music is in many ways unique, well performed and highly inspiring.

Ken led the Soul Winners - Apostolic in Ghana to release four successful albums which won the best gospel medium group award for three consecutive years (2002, 2003, and 2004) and now lives in the USA taking his game to the next level.

On 16TH June 2006, he performed alongside two American gospel stars Donnie Mclurckin and Tye Trebbet in the McDonald?s Gospelfest singing contest. The track, "No Jesus No Life", took the whole audience of the New York City center to their feet to praise God with his group.
