Another good group is the Gibsons. www.thegibsonssing.com
I've never seen them live but I love The Gibsons CD that I have. I really like "You're Almost Through The Storm."
They seem to write a lot of their own music which always impresses me when the quality is good.
I would love to see them live someday.

Hope's Journey is very good; Trent, their bass singer, just keeps getting better - he started singing with them when he was 15!!!

My group was in concert with HJ at Old Veal Schoolhouse the first time Trent sang with them - I think everyone there was shocked at how good "Sunshine" was...

This list would be incomplete without the DAN KEETON QUARTET. I wouldn't say that they are the "best thing since sliced bread", but they're very close to it.
I must mention a group of friends out of Clevland, Ohio called
Forgiven Band. I don't think they have a website,but they do have a myspace though. (myspace.com/forgivenband) Basically, it's a ladies trio singing, with a drummer, electric guitar player, bassist (Shawn is the most entergeitc person I've ever seen on stage. He gets so into playing the bass that he just can't stand still.), and occasional keyboards. The guys will have a feature or 2 on some songs along with the girls singing.
I've had the pleasure of running sound for them a number of times, and all I can say is that THEY ARE GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some groups I recommended in the previous thread like this are getting better and better and better. The sky seems to be the limit for the Copenhavers. (www.copenhavermusic.com) They are sooooo smooth that it's almost sickening.
The New Prophets (www.newprophets.com) have became, once again, a very solid group.
A quartet out of West Virginia called Bound For Heaven has a great sound. I heard them about 3 weeks ago, which was their first weekend out with a brand new bass singer (wish I remembered his name). I declare that the man can really sing!!
2 female trio's in Ohio are excallent, Radiant Heart(www.radiantheartministries.com),
and From The Heart Trio (fromthehearttrio.weebly.com).
Radiant Heart will absolutley blow you away. Their CD "Put It In God's Hands" is one of the absolute best CD's I've ever heard. The harmony and blend is almost unreal, especially on the songs "How Could I Ever Not Love Him", "I Am Broken", and "I See The Blood". This was produced to near perfection (at least to my ears), the audio quallity is even better than most stuff comming from Daywind.
From The Heart Trio is nothing but solid southern gospel. Yet they keep it fresh, somewhat thinking "out-side of the box" by touching virtually evey style within southern gospel, from music that would fit the Inspirations to Hope's Call. This wide varietiy might lead some groups into an "identity crisis", but the wonderfull part of it is that they do it all with remarkable quallity.
Ironically, both groups are at this moment duets, looking for a third part.
Can't forget to mention the Pine Ridge Boys, from North Carolina. "Big" Jim Stewart is simply the best bass singer in gospel music. Imagine the voices of Tim Riley and Calvin Runion mixed together, and you might have an adequate discription of Jim. You just have to hear him to know what I'm talking about.
The Shephards have some great music. Their CD "Reality" is fantastic.

At one of our concerts this weekend, we got to hear a new young group from Seminary, MS named Calvary's Harmony Quartet. They are very young but in time they going to grow in strides. They have an awesome tenor named Matthew Burgess just 19 too...wow what a range!
I get excited when I hear young people starting out, so I wanted to post it. Thanks for the time in reading my post....God Bless.

Has anyone on this forum ever heard the trio called Eighth Day? They are a fast and upcoming group from Spartanburg, SC who have a great sound.
In my opinion, they sound like Karen Peck & New River meets The Whisnants.
Check them out at www.eighthdaymusic.com

I sing with The Steel City Quartet based in the Birmingham area. (www.steelcityqt.com) We are traditional four part harmony quartet. We are very busy in this area. There are a few good groups around but not like it was 20 years ago. Some regional quartets are as tight as some full time quartets and trios.

Yes  I love their music, especially "Safe In His Loving Arms". I could hear that one all day. The Kingsmen need that song! Would fit them to a tee!

We sang up in Tennessee this past weekend and were with several good groups. Two that really stood out to us were:
The Gibsons (from Tennesee)
The Adams Family (from Ohio)
Both were awesome!

WOW! What a great line up of super part time groups listed here in these pages. Looks like someone could come-up with a convention of good part time talent somewhere here in the southeast.
Please come sing with us at Harmony Grove Baptist Church in Marietta
GA on Sunday July 20. We're looking for a great time of fellowship. See you there.
