FFWPU USA: HJ Arts and Culture December Newsletter

BlessingFest is this Saturday! Who are the HJ Featured Artists for the upcoming BlessingFest?

We’re so excited to feature three Unificationist original songs for the upcoming BlessingFest this coming Saturday, Dec. 18th at 8 PM ET. It’s not something you’ll want to miss - these performers have been working hard in writing, recording, and filming these songs on a professional level.

So who are these performers? AudioLynx, Karen and Oji Bahian, Samuel Suia, and Goldyn Avenue share a little about who they are and the inspirations for the songs they’ve written.

Not limited to the two of them, AudioLynx consists of Sean Garrison and Manny Moyongo who seek to connect with artists throughout the country. With hip-hop and electronic influences, they try not to limit themselves to any specific genre. Their featured song “Love Song” was inspired by a Las Vegas CARP promo Manny saw where a couple was talking about how much they wanted to share their love with others from all different backgrounds. At the same time, Manny was looking for a partner and wasn’t getting much luck. That was the initial spark behind the song — talking about the capacity to love other people beyond those you’re used to or comfortable with. It goes on to share a hopeful take on what the Blessing holds as well as inheriting this from his parents who also come from different countries and cultures.

Karen and Oji Bahian are a Filipino-Japanese blessed couple from New Jersey. They are singer-songwriters, multi-instrumentalists, and audio engineers. As a tag team, they write music together and hope to bring joy and happiness through their musical works. They wrote their song called “I Do” about the challenges, love, and commitment to each other as a Blessed couple.

Samuel Suia, originally from the Solomon Islands, is now living in Colorado and is a part of the Colorado Family Church. Sammy’s song “True Love” is about Father & Mother Moon’s teachings that can bring families and worlds together. He wrote it when he was biking around an island. By using his singing voice, he feels can share this message about real love to people in a more impactful way than by just talking about it with others. He believes this song can move the world and move people’s hearts.

Goldyn Avenue is a group of four sisters from Georgia, the Musembwa sisters, and they are really excited for this entire project. They’ve been singing together for years but never imagined that they’d be able to work in a professional setting like what they got to experience for the BlessingFest, singing as the featured group on Samuel Suia’s song. They’ll definitely hold on to this experience for the rest of their lives.

Let’s show our support to our fellow HJ artists! See you Saturday!
