| Founder Dee Curtis heard the call for a multi –
cultural, non - denominational gospel group, from those admirers of gospel
style music without church links, so she gathered the best singers from
all cultures and groups to bring the authentic gospel sound with variations.
Within 18 months of forming, they were called to perform at Covent Garden’s Royal Opera House. Citizen have gone from strength to strength and regularly performs at weddings, concerts and church gatherings, and were short listed for the semi-finals of ‘BBC Talent’ with their adaptation of the Eurythmics song “Sweet Dreams”. With other performances alongside Paul Weller and a Christmas Tour in 1999 with the Spice Girls, Citizen, have been meeting the demands of performance with great enthusiasm.
