Artist Mission Solomon Islands (AMSI) is a vision to encourage a community of serious gospel artists in Solomon Islands to be engaged in full-time musical arts & media mission endeavors for gospel advancing.
The ministry is based in Auki town, the capital of Malaita Island (province) in the Solomon Islands.

AMSI is founded by Eddie Daiding, a well known pioneering SI artist who was awarded the SI medal for distinguished contribution to SI in the field of Visual arts & gospel music development since 1983 to what it is today. Eddie is a very versatile natural artist who expresses his talent through design, painting, songwriting, music production and loves playing guitars.

Eddie’s passion for music evangelism lead him to team up with another popular pioneering artist Tony Hansel, former lead vocalist for the Unisound Band. Eddie and Tony launched the Maranatha Band in 1983 - 1988. A game changer in SI gospel music landscape to what it is today.
