About

During the 1950’s and 60’s, Southern Gospel quartet music raced to the forefront with great groups like the Statesmen and the Blackwoods. Now, since those original roots of Southern Gospel Music, the art form we now call Southern Gospel Music, has widened its scope by including strong influences from other music forms such as country and bluegrass. Sadly, much of that truly golden era has been lost, as has the style and artistry that was the hallmark of that genre of southern gospel talent. The oft-heard comment is that there are very few, true traditional southern gospel male quartets to be found anymore.

Well, I would like to introduce you to five men who seem determined on reviving that polished style of quartet singing, and the real bonus is they’re doing it for all the right reasons, serving Christ through a ministry of song and testimony. They of course, sing great, but their testimony is powerful and inspiring too. They sing with what can only be described as excellence in music and exuberance in presentation. To get the full impact of these men you must, without doubt, hear and see them face-to-face. I can tell you, I can find no fault in either their testimony or their very talented presentation in song. I once personally believed the golden age of Southern Gospel to be an era gone by. I am now rethinking those beliefs, for Southern Sound makes it all so fresh, alive and vibrant. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Southern Sound, and gospel music may never be the same again:
