LONDON, England – His Excellency Ellison Greenslade, Bahamas High Commissioner to the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland, welcomed Mr. Roy Francis, Author and Music CEO, and Mrs. Elaine Bowes, Marketing and Communications Manager of Pentecostal Credit Union UK, to the High Commission, 10 Chesterfield Street, Mayfair on Wednesday, August 14, 2019.

The High Commissioner was presented with a copy of Mr. Francis’ latest book, “How to Make Gospel Music Work for You,” which is described as “an authoritative and informative book, about both the history of gospel music and essential advice on how to make it in the Gospel music industry.”
According to information gleaned from the Internet, “Mr. Francis was brought up in the Pentecostal Church and was immersed in gospel music from an early age. He then became a gospel artist himself before becoming an extremely successful and well-respected producer of music programmes such as Songs of Praise on the BBC and Channel 4’s People Get Ready.”
In a review written by Chris Day for Filament Publishing, “How to Make Gospel Music Work for You” is described as being “packed with first-hand knowledge, inspirational ideas and tips.”
“This book is for you if you want to expand your knowledge of the Gospel scene in the UK; you are starting out in the Gospel music industry and need help and guidance; you are already a Gospel music artist but have lost your enthusiasm and drive for your music; you are interested in the history of Black and Gospel music,” the review states.
