Plattsburgh State Gospel Choir
EVENT DETAILS:

KVCC
The Plattsburgh State Gospel Choir (PSGC) was organized in 1991 by students and has constantly emphasized the breadth and depth of gospel music in order to expose both SUNY Plattsburgh and the North Country to this uniquely American genre. The choir’s first performance in 1991 was for SUNY Plattsburgh’s Kent State/Jackson State memorial ceremony. Even to this day some 25 years later, the choir still presents musical selections in honor of those college students who lost their lives while protesting against Social Injustice. PSGC’s founder, Zadine Richardson, and a few pioneering students, through prayer, hard work, and sheer determination, started the choir with a passion to maintain the gospel songs which gave them the strength and positive direction they desired while in college.
PSGC actively performs on campus, in the community, and throughout the region averaging 25 appearances each year. The choir sings at a variety of settings including colleges, campus events, K-12 schools, churches, memorial services, weddings, and other community events, and has given performances in Washington D.C., Little Rock/Stuttgart, Chicago, Montreal, Toronto, Tokyo, and St. Maarten/St. Martin.
EBFA shares the values of inclusiveness and fellowship through music that the PSGC represents, and we are proud to feature this uniquely American music genre in 2026.
