MERRY CHRISTMAS from everyone at SOUL OF SYDNEY

by

On behalf of everyone at SOUL OF SYDNEY & SUNDAY SANCTUARY, we wish each and every one of you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS. ✝️🎄🙏🏾

We hope you’ve enjoyed precious time with loved ones, and we send our blessings to you and your families this Christmas season and into the year ahead. May the new year bring health, joy, and continued blessings, and may we see more peace in the world and in people’s lives.

Thank you for being such an important part of our 2025. We are truly blessed to share the music we love with such an incredible community. Stay safe, stay in the light, and we look forward to seeing you all again in the new year.

More than ever, we’re reminded how important it is for people to connect. We’ll do our best to continue creating more of those moments in the new year — maybe even a few more Gospel House–inspired jams… one miracle at a time ✨🙏🏾

Big LOVE. We can’t wait to reconnect with you all in the new year — and work off some of those Lebanese sweets 😉

Kirk Franklin Tribute Mix
Soul of Sydney

In celebration of one of the greatest modern gospel artists of our time, Soul of Sydney presents a special Kirk Franklin Tribute Mix — a journey through gospel-inspired funk, soul, hip hop, and a touch of disco goodness.

Kirk Franklin has redefined gospel music for generations, bridging faith, culture, and the dancefloor with fearless creativity and undeniable groove. This mix pays respect to his influence beyond church walls — into clubs, community, and global music culture.

Curated as Kirk Franklin heads to Australia on tour, culminating in his Sydney Opera House Steps performance next week, this tribute blends uplifting energy, classic gospel moments, and soulful rhythms that honour his legacy and impact.

Expect:
✨ Gospel roots with funk & soul edges
✨ Hip hop energy and crossover anthems
✨ Feel-good disco touches and joyful praise
✨ Music that moves both spirit and body

Turn it up, feel the love, and celebrate a true icon.

Soul of Sydney — music, culture, and community.
