Gospel musician Diana Hamilton has revealed how she started her musical career as a backing vocalist for renowned gospel artist Francis Agyei, a role she held for 10 years before launching her solo career.
Speaking on The Career Trail program on Joy Learning TV and Joy News, Diana shared that her passion for singing began very early in life.
“I think I was singing from my mother’s womb. I started singing even before I turned seven. In church, whenever I heard somebody sing, the moment they finished, I would be singing exactly the way they did,” she recounted.
“Growing up, I remember one of my aunties would say, ‘You sing like an adult, sing like a child,” she added.
Following this early passion, Diana shared that she often sang at church.
“I remember when I was 13, I sang at church on my birthday. But even before that, I would sing whenever there was an opportunity,” she underlined.
This routine eventually led to gospel musician Francis Agyei discovering her talent and inviting her to join his team.
“All that time, I wasn’t singing for anything specific, until Francis Agyei, who was in my church, discovered me and added me to his team. That’s how we first recorded ‘Metwere Obotan Bi’. I was in Junior Secondary School then,” she recalled. M
