Gospel song finalist, Ancient Priest, on a mission
“To be committed to spreading the undying zeal for Jesus Christ and the good news to the four corners of the earth, through the medium which God himself has given to me in the form gospel reggae music.”
This is the mission of Leey Roy Johnson aka Ancient Priest.
At the age of 13, Lee Roy got saved and decided to walk with the Lord. This led him to the Faith Assembly Ministries Incorporated International (FAMII) under the leadership of Bishop Dr S Gutzmer. Here he was enrolled in the Golden Eagle Marching Band and soon after gospel icon, Lester Lewis became very impressed with his skills while singing and playing the drums.
Lewis immediately offered Lee the opportunity to sing and play in his band. As a member of the Dominion Band (Lester’s) Lee Roy now got the opportunity to travel the entire island, sharing the stage with some of Jamaica’s greatest — Papa San, Stichie, Prodigal, Dj Nicholas, Joan Flemmings and Goddy Goddy to name a few.
