Southern Sound Qt

September was a grueling month for Southern Sound. We sang at the Southern Gospel Quartet Reunion in Henderson, KY and then went straight to Louisville for the National Quartet Convention. Of course, NQC is the highlight of the year for us, but it is exhausting. I broke my diet on the waffle cones, but all and all I had a great time. Many old friends, who we don't see nearly often enough, we are able to spend time with during NQC. We also did several radio interviews, one of special note. Deon asked us the one question we certainly have never been asked before, "Beside Jesus Christ, who was your action figure hero when growing up?" That threw us all a curve, but after some thought, I said mine was Roy Rogers. Keith's was the Lone Ranger, and Roger's was Mighty Mouse. Roger is our tenor, which kind of figures doesn't it? Everyone got a laugh at that. The rest of the week all of our guys went around singing "Here I come to save the day" to Roger.

We also appeared on the Zion Showcase on Friday of NQC week, and as usual it was a blessing. What can I say; the Zion family loves to have Church!

We just returned from a trip through Florida where we sing at the Lake Gibson Church of the Nazarene in Lakeland, FL. What a joy it was to be with Pastor Kirby and the folks there. This is one very fine church and great stronghold for Southern Gospel Music. I wish we had many more like it. Thank you Dr. Kirby. We look forward to being with you again soon. Mr. Arnold Godwin, author of several of the songs we recently recorded, attended the singing too. We later had dinner with our good friends from Golden Street Music, John and Nita Wombles, their daughter Wendy and son-in-law Troy. What great Christian people these folks are.

Southern Sound will be hosting our own annual Homecoming on October the 25th at Fohs Hall Auditorium in Marion, KY at 6:30pm. Our featured guests this year will be the Childress Family from Madisonville, KY. These are fine folks who sing great and love the Lord. You will not hear a better vocal group or more spiritual singers than the Childress Family. You don't want to miss them! As many have said before, it's real hard to beat that tight family harmony.

Our new recording on ZION, "One Voice" is out and available now! For the dates where Southern Sound will be appearing, please log onto our web site. While you're there don't forget to sign our guest book.
