ABOUT
TWINSAX Outreach
TWINSAX Outreach is the outreach and community impact platform established around the ministry and work of gospel jazz duo TWINSAX, twin brothers Marvelous and Innocent Ayodele.
The journey began with music, but the vision has always gone beyond performance.
From their early musical development in Ilorin, Nigeria, TWINSAX grew into a gospel music ministry using the saxophone as an expression of worship, thanksgiving and Christian faith. Over time, that journey expanded across different parts of Nigeria and later internationally, including the United Kingdom.
One of the clearest expressions of that vision is the Gratitude Concert, established in 2017 at Oduduwa University in Osun State, Nigeria.
What began as a university based gathering centred on thanksgiving to God has grown into an international worship and outreach platform, bringing together musicians, worshippers, churches, volunteers and communities.
TWINSAX Outreach exists to build on that journey by taking the impact beyond the concert stage through music, worship, community engagement, partnerships, mentoring and practical outreach initiatives.
At the heart of everything is one simple conviction:
We have received much from God, and gratitude should lead us to worship, service and impact.
VISION STATEMENT
To build a global culture of gratitude that uses music, worship and community outreach to draw people to God, inspire hope and positively impact lives.
Our long term vision is for the work that began through TWINSAX and the Gratitude Concert to grow beyond individual events into a sustainable movement of worship, service and community impact across cities and nations.

Anchor Scriptures
The Biblical Foundation
Psalm 150:3-6
"Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD…"
This passage has historically been associated with the vision of the Gratitude Concert and reflects TWINSAX’s use of musical instruments as an expression of praise.
1 Thessalonians 5:18
"In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” Thanksgiving is central to the Gratitude Concert. The gathering was created around the conviction that God’s faithfulness deserves intentional and continuous gratitude…"
This reflects the wider heart of TWINSAX Outreach: recognising God’s goodness and allowing gratitude to produce worship and service
Psalm 107:1
"O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever…"
This reflects the wider heart of TWINSAX Outreach: recognising God’s goodness and allowing gratitude to produce worship and service
Matthew 5:16
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven…"
This scripture connects particularly with the outreach dimension of the organisation. The vision is not only to communicate faith through music, but also to demonstrate it through meaningful service and positive impact
The Visionary
Marvelous & Innocent Ayodele
Twinsax
TWINSAX is the gospel jazz music duo of twin brothers Marvelous Ayodele and Innocent Ayodele.
Born in Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria, the brothers developed an interest in music from childhood. They were initially introduced to the trumpet before progressing to the saxophone, which would eventually become central to their musical identity.
Their musical journey developed through Ilorin and later through other parts of Nigeria, including Bauchi and Ile-Ife, Osun State.
Blending gospel music with jazz and African musical influences, TWINSAX have developed a distinctive instrumental worship sound built around two saxophones.
Their work is grounded strongly in their Christian faith. Rather than viewing music solely as entertainment, the brothers see music as a platform for worship, ministry and service.
In 2017, they established the Gratitude Concert at Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu, Osun State. The gathering brought together students, worship ministers, musicians, church leaders and members of the wider community for an evening centred on gospel music, jazz, praise and worship.
The purpose was simple: “To give thanks to God for His faithfulness”
The biblical inspiration associated with the concert includes Psalm 150:3-6 and 1 Thessalonians 5:18.
Over subsequent editions, the Gratitude Concert continued to grow and later expanded internationally. UK editions have included gatherings in Cardiff and Manchester, while the wider anniversary programme has continued to connect audiences across Nigeria and the United Kingdom. The 2026 season marks 10 years of the Gratitude Concert journey, from 2017 to 2026. But the ambition for the future is bigger than an annual event. The vision is for Gratitude Concert to become a global expression of thanksgiving, with communities in different countries coming together around one message
TWINSAX have also ministered and performed internationally, including in Ghana and the United Kingdom, and have been involved with worship platforms including Warehouse Worship UK.
Alongside their music, both brothers have pursued professional and academic careers. Marvelous holds postgraduate training in Pharmaceutical Chemistry, while Innocent holds postgraduate training in Cybersecurity.
Through TWINSAX Outreach, they are building a structure around the wider social, spiritual and community impact that has grown from their music ministry.
