Biography

Multi-talented songwriter, singer and musician; Arnal 'Gozzy' Goslin has been involved in music ministry from a very young age. Though many artistes testify of God's changing power from colorful pasts; being raised with a strong Christian foundation from a child, Gozzy testifies of God's keeping power throughout his life.

"I don't know myself outside of God's love, mercy and faithfulness; I owe it all to Him, it's not about me."

From an early age he knew he was called to be a youth leader and to take the gospel to the world in song. At the age of 11 he wrote his first song 'My Jesus is nice', based on the melody to Bob Marley's "No woman no cry". In 2002 he spearheaded the group 'Word for Life' as the lead singer and songwriter. The group was later nominated for the 'Most Improved Act' and 'Gospel Band of the Year' in the 2003 Barbados Flame Gospel Awards. He has since then been nominated for 'Gospel Song of the Year' for the song 'Worship Is' his first track produced and released with Bloodwash Studios in 2006; with favourable airplay on Barbados' leading Gospel radio station: Gospel 97.5. In 2008 he featured at two major Barbados Gospelfest events and shared the stage with Jamaican Artiste Jason Mighty, Ryan Mark and international gospel artiste Israel and New Breed.

"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path" (Psalm 119: 105). This scripture, along with his personal experience with God, has been the main inspiration and passion behind his lyrics, music and performances. Gozzy's music is an encouragement especially to the youth. Being a Youth Leader for the last ten years, he has invested most of his life and effort in discipling and encouraging young people to stand strong in Christ in the midst of a declining moral world. He believes that his gospel reggae/ R&B ministry is catered to challenging Christians and the unsaved to know and experience the fullness of God by delivering the untainted Word of God in song. His goal is to take this message that God's Word is Life throughout the Caribbean and the world.

Gozzy is signed to Bloodwash Records and is now working on his anticipated debut album to be released in 2009.
