Give this man a guitar and watch the magic. Dire Pitan is a talented artist brimming with enthusiasm and passion for the One he’s singing for. You’re in for a treat if you check him out at Big Church Day Out this weekend.

The first time we met Dire, he had just released his debut EP Nowhere Else. The London singer songwriter took out his trusty guitar and guided us through the hits from his 2016 release and we were mesmerised. Look out for Inspiration. It’s our favourite single from Dire and sees him deploying his brilliant voice with a mid-tempo beat, piano, strings and guitar. It tells the story positive story of his walk with God. Like the other singles from the EP, it’s a message of hope.

Styles-wise, think acoustic soul mixed with contemporary gospel. It’s a formula that’s worked. Although still early in his career, he’s opened up for gospel megastar Pastor Charles Jenkins at a sold out gig in London. The exciting thing is, we’re only just seeing the beginning of this artist’s journey.

You can see Dire Pitan on the CSW Airstream Stage at Big Church Day Out South on Sunday.
